Hyundai i20 or Seat Ibiza- what should I buy?
I need to buy a new car that’s reliable and cheap to run. I’ve narrowed down my search to the Hyundai i20 1.25 manual and the Seat Ibiza Reference 1.4 manual, which would you choose?

Definitely go for the i20. The Ibiza is prettier, but the 1.4 engine is terrible.
