I m a driving instructor and uses a Jazz 09 i-shift with 97k miles. My other car is a Seat Ibiza 1.4 SE manual 09 with 101000 miles. The Jazz had its gearbox actuator changed at 88k miles and that's it. The Ibiza had its alternator, sensors, abs pump, oil leakage, springs, cat, exhaust... Basically Seat is VW and it's not great on reliability. The engineering is also not as good as Honda. However, the styling is really nice and that's why I brought it! My pupil brought a 1.2 TSI Leon few months ago and it does look good and nice car to drive. So far he is happy with it.
