Courtesy car number 2- SEAT Ibiza

As the Accident Management company promised, my like4like car was delivered on Tuesday. A SEAT Ibiza, Black, 1.4, 3 door and beautiful in every sense of the word and did I mention the car was black.
Without sounding fickle about cars, the SEAT was the right colour, size and after hitting the A329m at a staggering 100 miles an hour she was smooth albeit noisy (but driving at 100 m/p/h your bound to hear some engine noise).
The SEAT is a German car and similar specification to the VW so stability and a smooth drive are a given with German cars. German cars have good reputations.
The only complaint I do have is the 3 doors option. Its inconvenient getting in and out of the back, but as its not myself who will be in the back its not a huge problem. Surprisingly the space in the car is small and my Peugeot is larger inside including ample boot space.

Subsequently my repetitious drive into work has been significantly better and not to mention how much i've saved on wear and tear by driving the courtesy car.

Alas all good things come to an end and the repairs on the Peugeot are to complete on Tuesday (tomorrow) when I have to (reluctantly) return the SEAT Ibiza to the Accident Management company.
