You mean, the car manufacturers that VAG made them into...

My SEATs got a System Porsche engine (pwoah!), a Fiat Strada 'chassis' & various VW components

I like their new Rally Car Design. Looks great, smaller than the old one. Maybe in a few months or years they can surpass Peugeot, Ford, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Astra, and become Rally winners........like Marcus did @ Finland.

Maybe VAG should buy MG Rover like they did with Skoda and Seat (remember tinny old SEATs and Skodas of old? - zero image) and save the last Brit mainstream cars from extinction (and from Top Gear's piss-taking, it worked with SKoda!)

MG rover seem to be doing ok on there own

Their range all date from the 90s, and they desperately need to replace them, so more people would buy them - I used to live in Birmingham and support MG Rover with a passion, they are suffering because Top Gear are always laughing at them. Although their newer models due to thsi deal with Proton look nice and will defintely be modern and competetive, Top Gear won't give them a chance because they are Proton-based (and Proton is NOT cool) Mind you, Skoda is now a fashionable brand, and SEAT is defintely cool, wheras before VAG, they were uncool tinny things.

Well I'm too lazy to take pics of my car at the mo.

But heres a pic of the sporty version (Not sure if this has the 'System Porsche engine or something else) Seat Ibiza (Big pic 56k beware).

My car is different in the following ways:

1.2i (Supposed to give out 70BHP)
Ofcourse mines right hand drive...
Red with black bumpers, sideskirts, spoiler, mirrors & wheel arches (all stock).
No tinted glass
No foglights, no alloys.
...
... Cries

Cars abit noisy (3k RPM sounds like 5.5k RPM), but its a nice small car & has been very reliable for my bro. Only just got it through MOT as it had been stood over a year & brakes were ceased. (Had to be taken apart god knows how many times, crap brakes anyway, although Sportline might have discs on rear too). Only the odd stonechip rust mark, and a couple of minor dents. Car was originally from Manchester & I think nearly all of its windows were broken at one point & a mirror got knocked into driver door & got smashed & replaced.
