Yeah I get the same matey usually happens at high revs...... just something to get used to, or slip it into a higher gear

good to know, bit strange at first, never felt it before in a car, guess it's a 3 cylinder thing

 

[Kie183]

umm favorite mods gotta be the exhaust makes me nice and loud lol and of course the facelift bumper. ohhh and my sound system.

 

[RaggedLob]

Anyone got a sports back box for the 1.2? something not too loud, but that gets rid of the hissy whiney sounds

not the full system, can't afford that..

was thinking Cobra, they do a universal one for £75, any ideas?

 

[Aimez]

I've now got a spare FR back box lol!

My previous (1st) car was a 1.2 Ibiza. Absolutely loved it!

pics:

Best mods were the alloys, sound system and custom backbox!

It was a sad day when it had to go :-(

Ended up with this though ;-)

ahh stop it you know I love that car!

tbh mate im struggling with mods.

Ive ordered some gel badge overlays to go over the front and back ford badges. (white background and black writing). Ive seen pictures and they look cool but il wait until i see them on my car before deciding on leaving them on for good.

I may invest in some coilovers but there really expensive at the moment.

Theres a few remaps in development, but apart from that im struggling so far!

 

[BigWill]

Being totally honest, I'd leave it as it is, looks sexy enough
Only thing I would do is smooth the front and back bumpers, but that's just me
