I'm tempted by the Seat 150tdi Cupra but the Skoda is available for £11997 with the 130tdi engine, at this price who wouldn't be tempted.
OK, it's missing side airbags and Climate, but it's a five door and looks pretty good, considering it's got a Skoda badge on it.
A Skoda with more torque than a Porsche Boxter - can't be!!!

My names down for a test drive but I'm not going to buy one...I want an Ibiza TDi Sport with thesame engine so I can swap all my bits over.

Oh and forgot to add, Skoda are allocating one car per dealership!
I bet you any money mine gets a yellow one!

Apparantely the Skoda is not as fast as the Ibiza in a straight line nor does it handle as well.
Also Recently found out the Ibiza 130 tdi is also available with a 5 door option.

How much is the Ibiza, though?
Skoda = £12k,
Polo GT (if it does actually get announced this week - looking doubtful) = c. £15.5k

Roughly 13.5/14k for 3/5door Ibiza's.
