3 years, 50k miles and no issues at all to be fair!

thats good then,hopefully the c4 works out the same way for you then with the added bonus of mpg.

Well, the bloke I swapped the Ibiza with has sold it on ebay.... £2265 in the end!! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250809815642&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
Someone has got a bargain there! Pity most of the mods he mentions in the add aren't on the car anymore!!! He basically copied my description of the car when I was trying to sell it.

What a terrible write up! The bloke is obviously foreign cos his english language and literature is terrible!!!! I'm no teacher and only 22 myself, but I think a 5 year old has better spelling. Shame to see a nice example go for a budget dangerous close to a boy racers reach!! Lets hope the new owner looks after it.

As for the Citroen, can't say I agree with that Mike! lol I'd certainly have stuck in the VAG group as the VAG diesels are spot on. But each to their own. Hope it goes well for you and you dont have any problems.

I know! Citroen is going well so far! Long list of mods being compiled though....

He was Italian. Nice bloke and he said he probably keep it as his car for getting to work etc. Clearly changed his mind! Hope it doesn't get trashed by some boy racer now.

Really wanted it to go to an SCN member when I tried to sell it but had no takers for the money I wanted. In the end, the need for better fuel economy overtook the love I had for the car.

I can't believe how little your old car sold for in the end! I wouldn't be suprised if the sale doesn't go through and it's back on ebay next week

Had a call from SEAT today regarding the replacement of coil packs. I did have one go on me just before getting rid of the car. Issue with them? Did have to inform them of the change in ownership.

 

[wenman]

I had one go about 2 months ago, I thought it was a reasonably known problem on 1.8t's of the coilpacks not being all that!

Its worth getting in touch with seat to see if your car is covered in the criteria for the Tpi.

Any coils that are of a certain no.. are to be replaced. Like I say, worth a quick phone call!

 

[Gooner_Mike]

Thanks, but its not my problem anymore... got rid of the car about 6 months ago!

It was second hand and a good few years ago now! The bloke offered me a Cupra intake for £30 too at the time but I didn't have the cash on me and I turned it down.
