Picked this up Friday 15/10/10. It's an Ebony Black, stg1 Ibiza Cupra.

Few pics from the advert.

Had 16s on the front in the advert but now all 17" SuperTs.

Pic of it how it stands, unfortunately the day after buying it I got a puncture.

Future plans are:
FMIC
Stubby drivers mirror from Germany - fitted
Citroen C4 aerial - fitted
Xcarlink for the iPod - fitted
Swap the coilies from my 1.4 (Thread here) to sort out the slight reverse rake
Swap the black and grey interior for the black and red interior in my 1.4 - done
Sort out the serious knocking from the Milltek (sorta sorted)

It is. Its black leather and grey inserts in my cupra, and black leather and red inserts in my 1.4. Going to swap them as I prefer the red, and my little bro who is getting my 1.4 prefers the grey.

I saw this advertised on PH, is this the CAT-C one? Looks tidy mate, Is the H+R suspension any good in comparison to any other spring and shock set-up?!

Pics were taken by the previous owner.

Yeah it is, when I saw he had one of these that he had bought from VW Racing, I trusted his repairs. Was only cosmetic damage anyway.

I don't know about other spring and shock set ups, but I find this set up quite bumpy compared to the Weitec coilovers I have on my other Ibiza.

Yeah its electric. If you search ebay.de for Ibiza Spiegel Rechts, and look for one that says 'ELEKTRISCH' you should be able to find one. Just select watch this item, then log into ebay.co.uk and it should translate the page for you.

Unscrew it as far as it will go, then sorta bend and twist it and pull really hard. Will then just pop out.

I'm not sure, I've always used C4 ones though. Got mine from a garage on eBay called howardsgaragestaunton.

Power wise? No, not yet. Jumping from a car that has 60bhp to one with nearly 200 is quite a big step so I'm just getting used to it at the moment. No doubt after a while I will get bored and want more, but at the moment its certainly quick enough.
