You Know You have a mk2 Ibiza When........

[Adz The Rat]

lol, you are a liar if you think the F2 kit is factory

Oops so is it not??
I got told it were a limited run from factory.............

 

[m0rk]

no, it was a retro fit option offered by dealers from around 1997-1999

UK supplied, from sportstek/SBG - but no car ever left spain with it on - it's just like the aero kit offered now on the leon

 

[F2 Stu]

Ive got the dealer spool on the kit somwhere...

 

[Aizman]

You know you have a mk2 cordoba when you need a magnifying glass to find the wheels in the wheelarches.

 

[Aizman]

when the airbag light wont go out

 

[jadwot]

You know you have a mk2 when you can hear the strut tower bushes are worn out...again!

 

[jadwot]

You know you have a mk2 when you need the paint code only to find the PAPER! info label they stuck inside the spare wheel well has disintegrated.

 

[jadwot]

you know you have a mk2 when you wish it had a hydraulic clutch instead of a cable that needs replacing twice a year

 

[Adrok]

You know you have a mk2 when you need the paint code only to find the PAPER! info label they stuck inside the spare wheel well has disintegrated.

Just when I thought this thread was running out of things, another two classics popped up

And due to that I have no idea what my paint code is.....

by looks of the Avatar if your car is slightly metallic black then its called Magic Black

 

[Roelích]

Black Magic. Immense colour. The best!

 

[Boi Ninja]

and i can second that. drinks to the last 3 posters. (non-alcholic champane of course)

 

[Adrok]

Yeah its metallic black and a very nice shade too.

I will look out for Magic Black paint!

 

[Brummy]

my '4' is magic black.. lovely when washed

*for all of about ten minutes*

 

[TazKendo]

You know when you have a mark 2 ibiza when....

your pedal box falls apart at 73k miles

I know that feeling

 

[crezz]

you know you have a mk2 when you have this feeling in your heart that will be there forever because no matter what i does to you, you will still love it!

 

[Gerry 16v]

you know you have (had!) an MkII Seat Ibiza 2.0 16V GTI Cupra Sport when it takes 10 mins to SAY which model you have

You also know when you bought a 50k miler 4 years old for 6k that it will run for another 100k and 6 years with relatively few problems (or is that just me???) and only start to p1ss you off by breaking down A LOT in the last 2k miles - roughly the same timeframe as you have been talking about buying that new car!!! They have ears I tell ya!

 

[Aizman]

you get a blowing exhaust fixed to discover a quiet grinding noise from the front that gets worse to find out that it is the drive shafts that are disintegrating.

 

[Aizman]

Not knowing if the car will come to life when i turn the key..........

 

[crezz]

when you cant help but spend money on it because you love it so much! man it hurts my wallet!
