Show off your mk2 ibiza :)

Yea might have a go at getting it fixed up a bit, whats the almost easy fix for the rust though?

Cut the piece out and weld a new plate in, then spray it silver yourself... I know you have to weld for that, but I'm pretty sure you know someone who can weld(I know 4 and I'm not even into that stuff)... So it's kind of easy to DIY...

Ofcourse, it won't look as good as if you did it professionally but it will still look loads better...

You could also fill it up I guess, but would need looaaads of filler and probably wouldn't hold properly...


@Brummy: Fair enough I guess... I don't really like the big wheels on that Mk4... Btw, it looks like the door tops have a different color aswell?! *facepalms* Doesn't look right that...

You kind of got a point there...



I got pics! Just had it MOT'ed for second try and it passed. Just some heat-cracks in my right rear tire, oh well...

Pic whoring time...

Hmm... A package had arrived... What could possibly be in there...

*I was a happy man right there!*

lowerrrrrrr

 

[Mythbuster]

lowerrrrrrr

The car jack wouldn't go low enough so I couldn't drive it off if it was lower mate


Rear is still on lowering springs btw... Just put the fronts on so I could get it through MOT

+ I scraped the splitter already while driving it onto the MOT parking lot...

And it needs to be a certain height to get it through Dutch MOT... but I don't think that's a problem yet.

 

[Brummy]

I carry a block of wood in the boot to drive onto so I can get a trolley jack under my car

 

[Mythbuster]

True that... Thing is we had it on a car lift and I had already fitted everything untill we found out lowest setting wouldn't let it clear the jack.. And I don't want to go 1mph at every speedbump and other things( since I already scraped it as it is)... Still want to keep some ride comfort aswell if you know what I mean

Gonna get going with the roof peel as the next thing I think... Either that or the rocker cover gasket...

 

[crossedmike]

u want to be so low that u feel stone ping up agains ur splitter and as brummy i carry block of wood

best thing to do is side jack points lower a side at a time then back super low slow but looking good

 

[Mythbuster]

Well uh, no I don't really... Not with the size of speedbumps we have here
Anyway, I went to a Seat meeting in the Netherlands today and it was awesome! Kind of wondering if I should start a topic for the pics but oh well... Just showing off other peoples cars aswell.

VW Polo with a G40 engine... Very cool

400+ horsepower on this Leon mk1...

More to come...

 

[Mythbuster]

Rest of the pics!
My Ibiza from when everyone except 4 people had left already... (there were about 98 people in total...)

Since the meeting was held at a Seat dealer, also a lot of new Seats and 2nd hand cars were displayed inside... For example this very cool blue Ibiza, I mean, this color would look horrible on any car, except a Seat tbh!

Some weird Mini Cooper with way too large wheels(still looks cool tho)

If I remember correct, this Leon TFSI had over 300 horses...

This Leon 2.0 TFSI DSG had 412 horsepower, in flesh it was more purple-ish than brown but oh well.

I had a terrificly good day as it was my first ever meeting, with any car... Met alot of nice people, no chavs (I was kind of scared there would be too many chavs around), all real enthusiasts! All I wish for now is that I'd live in the UK so I could go to meetings that had more Ibiza's... Why? Well.. uhm.. Because:

I WAS THE ONLY PERSON WITH A 6K IBIZA! (There was a 6k Ibiza style Cordoba though... )

There was only a black 6k2 and a red mk4. On the way home I saw a mk1 Ibiza though! Strangely enough, although it was red it had better paint than mine does!

 

[Seat-Chris]

well after an incident with an unseen speed bump mine now looks like this.........

aint she beautiful........... hahahaha

What happened?

 

[AlpineWhite]

Engine went pop again, I think.

 

[Mythbuster]

Crezz... How is that still driving after it was already being stripped?!.....


And if it is still driving on it's own power, why didn't you just drive untill the engine completely died....

Or did you sell it as a non-runner in the end and spotted it on the road later?........

Please just tell us it's that last option and that it's not just an old picture?

If I had the money to buy it for the price of all its parts... I would.

I has a sad...


@Chris: Uhm well that sucks :O Lucky I got rubber bumpers...

 

[crezz]

its an old picture, my friend uploaded it on facebook

 

[Mythbuster]

Balls.. Hey I have an ambitious idea... Why don't you just tow it to a Seat Dealer, and tell them they should buy it as a showmodel... :O That way you'll get a decent price, you might be able to keep the engine AND the car will still be nice!


But.... for serious now(although it would be cool lol ),... Can't you just strip everything but sell the body(doors, bonnet, boot and body) itself as a whole? That would work right? Then some enthusiast buys the shell with a donor car for the other parts and the car can still be as mint as it was! *Hints at the guy that wanted to put a Hayabusa engine in an Ibiza*


*there has to be a way the car can be saved *
