Maybe they are making them so prominent so people can see what kind of car they are gonna get hit by the few seconds before they get hit..... just a hunch :) Wow

I like the 5-door HB Ibiza (though the rear is a little too Mazda 3-ish) but this definitely has lost any originality that the other Ibizas have. Considering SEAT's top-level model is basically a previous-generation Audi A4, it makes sense that this looks more than a little like the outgoing A3. Bleh.

I can't help but find similarities between this and a Hyundai, what is it called now, Accent? A little too swoopy and curvy for my tastes. What's with the European makers (and Nissan) making their hood badge so prominent and gaudy? It's not as if these cars are prestige items.

And those are primary markets for this car. Also, if you recall when I returned from Madrid, I mentioned that most of cabs in Madrid are actually Skoda's. That's another kick into reality for Seat.

Is it like... so 'I buys a' sh*tbox like this because I can't afford anything better? Or is it... sure it's a piece of sh*t, but 'eh beeza' walking.

It is outright dark on the back seat of Seat cab on a bright sunny Spanish day. This one looks more appealing, IMO.

Sure it looks like a competent little wagon, but OMG this is a total rehash of a rehash. A new car that looks old….right out of the chute!
