with a Ko4 its a possibility, mayb ask a few more in depth questions about its tuning. injection FPR etc

the guy who got it claims he bought it off his mate to bail him out of debt so dont think he knows alot on the car, example does not say forge fmic in advert but yet you can see it through he bumper lol

he seems genuine guy though so think il get it, was goin to do it to my cupra k04 and porsch rims but this one is a very good price so iv solt mine and im goin to get that one friday :)

yeh id be VERY wary looking at it. Dont put a deposit down or anything yet and get someone that knows VAG cars to go along with you, or better still, you could buy a local member on her a few beers and get them to go along with you. Just be careful, there are alot of bad ibiza's out there and you dont want to land a dog!

If its silver one im thinking of.. maybe Y reg i think cant remember. Been for sale for ages. Was forsale back in october/november when i was looking.
Didnt seem to know much about the car or give out much information when i emailed him so didnt enquire further.

he does not know much about it no, as he bought it off a mate to bail him out of debt, its been done by jabba with paper work to prove so it must be a tidy job, al top parts been used like forge front mount, milteck system, porcsh breaks and rims, money has been thrown at it for deff!

i got vag com so il take that up and check it all over guys im clued up as to knowing if head gasket is ok, brakes,turbo smoking and so on, so hopefully ilbe driving it bk thursdya :)

im pretty sure the turbo ect wasnt done by jabba because i was speaking to the guy that built the car when i done mine! im 90% sure its the came car! also i think the engine bay looks dirty and manky!

elbow grease sport that out mate, after all its only up for 4250 the rims are worth 500 all day with tidy tyres!

im getting it thursday now lol, just seems daft to spend like another 2k plus on mine to get it to 270 bhp also i wanted to upgrade brakes and rims to whats on that silver one so its job already done.

and the map and rolling road is by jabba so it must be a close bhp print out as most people say jabba are very accurate :)

shall post up pics once its all clean friday ha ha and let you know how it goes to my k03;s 240bhp one
