Yes, I own an Ibiza Cupra 160 TDI thats remapped to 200bhp and its a quick little car, has decent handling and looks well IMO. Also, I can still average around 45mpg. The only thing that lets it down is the interior which isnt everybodys cup of tea but I dont mind it.
Evo mag seem to rate it highly as they have given it 4.5 stars out of 5 in the back of the mag which is more than any other SEAT on the on the list.

Are considering buying one?

I was going to get one a few weeks back, but the dealer offered me **** money for the CTR so I give it a miss. Good reports about them though and quick for a diesel.

I tried one when they first came out.

Suspension felt to firm for my taste and I didn't think the PD160 was worth the extra over a Fabia vRS. The PD130 in the Fabia will remap to 180-190bhp for around £400.

Cheers
