God I've missed the Ibiza

[m0rk]

I took the Ibiza out this evening for the 1st time in about 2 months - full tank of Tesco 99, ECU reset & some guestimated new settings given the standardness of it now.

Didn't take long to feel the heatsoak though on the crapola smic, it's not exactly on a high boost setting either.

Now I'm in a mind not to sell it again.

So noisey compared to the Mitsi though, and the mpg is about half - but hell, even at 30mpg it's still kicking the arse of the Vario on mpg by a factor of two.

since your sig had changed and parts had been flogged i thought you had sold it

not a fan of that those colts personally

 

[m0rk]

Nah, I needed to do some tidying jobs, and fancied a signature change.

The colt's not a bad car, but certainly not 'fun'. Once you get past the 3 pot engine you realise it's a lot more comfy and at 80 you can't hear anything other than the wind on the mirrors!

I know what you mean i have a daily driver (rover 214) and when i go out in the ibiza it is so much fun, really makes you realize how good they are. I think its going to be a long time before i sell up.

Nope. we figured there's better times of year to shift a car than just after xmas. then it was plate change for new cars

there's nowt wrong with the tesco stuff.....my car responds better to tesco than it does to shell, as it stands because of this, i dont rate shell at all.

Mork ~ Keep it, you know exactly how the car has been treated by yourself and to be honest....for what they're worth now, your not gonna find much better.
