its a good job all mk2s are female or that would be mechanically painful!

 

[TiggsGTI]

mine's isn't

You know you have a mk2 Ibiza when the clip that connects to the clutch pedal snaps causing u do drive home from ur 30 mile trip in 5 gear after gliding it in under 2000 revs and starting it in 2nd gear at all red lights ((

 

[TiggsGTI]

You know you have a mk2 ibiza when...
...After spending ages taking the airbag out to fit a glovebox in you go to get something out of it and that falls apart too...

 

[vngtx]

tiggs dont worry about it, ive tie strapped mine back on

 

[TiggsGTI]

Stupid thing! I know it's not meant to be there but it's been fine for months until yesterday I don't want to open it to see what's snapped.

 

[vngtx]

probably the little slots have snapped on the lid that it pivots on.

 

[TiggsGTI]

Must be. As you can see it's only the left side that's snapped. Ah well it still closes, when you push in and up slightly lol.
The whole cars falling apart, I just have images of me shutting my drivers side door and the passenger one falling off That will be the next thing

 

[Mythbuster]

Repair it.. Don't let the car fall apart! If you let it fall apart I'll come and rescue it

lol..


EDIT: Oh 16 posts.. Time to get you guys some better pictures of my car

 

[TiggsGTI]

haha yeah! It's constant! The rear number plate bulb holder keeps falling out (that square thing) The parcel shelf rubber thing has snapped, early last week I noticed my aerial was gone-god know where that's got too, and now my glovebox is having a go!
You know you have a mk2 when despite all this heartache...you still love it and say it's full of character lol

You know you have a Mk2 when your looking for a new car, but don't want to sell the Mk2, so just so it stays in the household your willing to hand it down to your not yet passed little brother who doesn't give a cr4p about cars

 

[Finan]

Haha tiggs, my glovebox does the same.. you gotta be careful opening and closing it or it slides off.

 

[Big-Pete]

why did the GTis come without gloveboxes again?! makes 0 sense!! anyone have a guide to taking it out?!

 

[TiggsGTI]

Because it needs an airbag to justify the insane powah of the mk2
Oh I should add apparently - and this is from Seat in Stirling-the glove box on the 16v is under the steering column. Yes that tiny little cubby hole big enough to fit a breakdown cover card is the glovey

i currently have all my docs in there (photocopied in black and white) but seriously whats behind the airbag??

A helluva load of empty space... Had to take my glovebox out a couple of times cause someone had messed with my wiring before: My radio would only work if the lights were turned on, it wasn't linked to the ignition at all... Now it is though Had to take the glovebox out twice, since I couldn't get my old radio out in the first place (didn't have those handy pins at the time)
