    I’d only go for the newer models 2013+ of these cars (Polo GTI, Fabia VRS and Ibiza Cupra) that’s when VW sorta fixed the prior issues with them.
    Also them bocanegras are a car which are going up in value rn

    I have seen these about but didn't know they were a tad sporty! It does look like it's had a pair of Hadrian cover sills fitted for its MOT though, 1990s style, not sure on that look 🤔

    The 1970's Seat Bocanegra was a copy of the Fiat 128 3P and was called the black mouth because of its distinctive black grill.

    My mate had one of these with the DSG box, spent £1200 on the box, something to do with some module 🤷‍♂, only had 45k on it. You're right, what a machine, went like absolute 💩off a shovel when it went right. He paid £3400 3 years ago knowing it had a fault, did the DSG repair and got £5500 3 months later so luckily got out of that one unscathed and 3 months of fun into the bargain. After 3 months his bottle went regarding having the unreliable box with big bills attached so moved it on.

    I guess it's Seat's version of the Fabia VRS Goes like stuff off a stick , 1.4 burned oil like crazy, DSG box is superb but if it goes wrong, pricey. Bit of a gamble car.

    I must be lucky with Seats, Had a 2012 1.2 Leon with DSG box (6yrs). Then a 2018 1.4 FR Leon with a manual box, which I changed after a few months because I didn't like a manual box. I then had a 2017 Ateca 1.4 with a DSG box (6yrs). Now in a 2023 Skoda Kamiq 1.0 with a DSG box. Never had any trouble with either the DSG boxes nor the engines, never needed to top up the oil on any, they all were on the mark until the oil changed at the next service. Never heard of the Bocanegra either.

    Kia rio 1.4 4speed 2019
    Toyota yaris 1.5 cvt 2019
    both using gazoline engine (no diesel no hybrid).

    No that's a bloody nightmare. Mate had one of those first generation tfsi cars and it had 2 new engines in the first 2 years before he got fed up and sent it back. The engines couldn't take the power.....hence they went back to the 2.0 on fast models.

    the common opinion is that all the earlier pre facelift 1.4 twincharged ones can be very problematic but apparently the later facelift which came with a 1.8tsi was much more reliable

    We had one, 70k good history
    DSG box, it did a piston - We sent it away to an independent Vw specialist who put the bottom end back together wrong which screwed the entire lump after new pistons and rings were fitted - They ended up coughing £2500 for a good second hand lump
    We traded it out and made about £3.78 out of the thing
    I’d never touch another one - Typical VAG group rubbish

    Hi Lee. Not a bad looking Car. I would say there's afew Quid to be made with it. BUT nearly £4K too Pay out doesn't make me happy. You will likely have it for awhile and hopefully it's a straight car with nothing wrong with it. Alot of your Customers will be looking at Fiestas or a lovely Renault Clio for that kind of Cash. I would only buy this if i had someone for it. Chat later bro. 😅🖐🖐🇨🇮
