Craig's Mk2 Ibiza. NEW CAR Page 20 25/6/12!!

[CraigW]

Just too add I am loving driving the car again after the new clutch! !

Car looks gorgeous as ever mate.
You make me want to get a respray on my Ibiza.

Also, love that cheeky Leon in the background!

Thanks mate!! :thanks:. Glad I put the 2 layers of wax on when I prepared it for winter, made it so much easier to clean!!
Only part of my car thats been fixed/resprayed is the passenger side, drivers rear quarter and the roof (obviously )

Thats why I picked that space so I could get a the Leon in the background of a few of them! That is an awesome car, Kiwi Green/Yellow (same as the Mk2 Ibiza Colour) and full BTCC bodykit on it.

Thanks mate! . That was only a wash and a going over with some rapid detailer (left my spray on Demon Shine at the fiancee's ). Put 2 layers of wax on getting it ready for winter and its doing its job so far.

I know what you mean, We are just missing the "Tsshhhhhhh", I might have it one day!

I know, sig pic will be changed at some point!

Very interesting thread mate love the colour! makes me want a mk2 as a project aswell as my one haha!

 

[CraigW]

Even though the Ibiza is running perfectly just now Im at the point that I dont know what to do with it.

Do I:

• Finish it off and enjoy it
• Sell it as it is and get something else
• Strip some of the parts and sell it standard-ish
• Enjoy It.

I really dont know what to do . Im struggling for ideas about what to do/tweek next and I think that is why I am thinking the way that I am.

I am open to any suggestion etc from people, need some sort of inspiration .

Thanks mate. I really love the colour aswell, you dont see many mk2's in this colour. They are even rarer in Gti form.

I know what you mean mate.

Been thinking about it today and I think it will be abit of a 'waste' getting rid of the car just now, just had the roof done for a few months and just had the clutch fitted. May aswell try and finish the car and make it look much better than it is just now!

I get what bit you mean now. Only thing is I would have convert to 5 stud set-up. There is a second idea that I had which I briefly mentioned on facebook. I know they would fit no problem etc but finding a set for 'reasonable' money is difficult as I have been looking already.

Could always try and steal/acquire Mike's set

Time for a small-ish update:

Woke up to go to work this morning and was greeted by this:

Had abit of a worry about how the Falkens would be in the snow. Before I had bought them I had read some reviews of them and a few said that they were good in the snow we had last year. , They are just 'normal' tyres, none of your fancy winter ones, they have been made to work in lower temperatures in the first instance but I was really impressed with how they were in the snow . Had no instance of sliding or losing grip.

One thing though that the snow has highlighted that I have abit of a sticky rear brake which will need looking at.

Also bought some a couple of new stickers:

.

Hoping to get some pictures of them on the car at the weekend.

Comments welcome!
