Need to make a choice between two cars:

1.Mitsubishi Colt 1.3l 16v 95Hp (3 door)
2.Seat Ibiza 1.2l 12v 70Hp (3 door)

The Colt is slightly cheaper but has less equipment than the Ibiza.Car will be used moslty for city driving.
I haven't driven niether but would like to hear your imput.
And i'm sorry i know this is a corsa forum but i would appriciate your thoughts.
Thanks.

Deffo the colt, more powerfull and more realiable

dont rate ibiza, terrible handling, the most wooden breaks iv ever felt plus i crashed one at 30mph and it caved in like a tin box, even the police and fire blokes were commenting on how shit it was in a smash

Thanks for the reply
I would like to ask anyone how do you rate the Top Gear reviews about the cars cause according to them both cars are even in the handling,driving,build quality area.In fact the Ibiza has a better verdict in the safety department.
I've been the Seat and Mitsubishi dealers....sat in both cars,front and back.
The build quality seems very good on both cars,but the Colt has more space when you sit in the back.The Ibiza however feels like a proper car in terms of size.

I have an Ibiza, but a 1.9 derv. Its a very nice car IMO, but wouldnt bother with the 12v.

I'd be after the colt on the pur fact it has more power
