Seat has secured a two-year contract to supply Ibizas to the newly-launched What Car? driving school.

Seat UK’s national fleet sales manager Sally Livingstone negotiated the 250-car agreement.

The deal should push interest for the Ibiza at UK showrooms as a high percentage of learner drivers end up buying the car they learnt to drive in upon passing their driving test.

The new What Car? Driving School launched towards the end of 2009.
