    Ibiza ST whistling noise

    My girlfriend recently bought her first car, a 2013 Seat Ibiza ST 1.2 TDI. She got it for cheap, but it's not without its issues. The most directly annoying issue is that the car whistles loudly all the time. I have tried to localise the source of the whistle but it's proving quite difficult...

    Well, the half time whistle has blown on the 2009 season, what are your thoughts

    OK, so 5 meetings done, 5 to go. What are you thoughts. I'm thinking Turks for the outright title. The RAC 320si's look strong. Gio, well I don't think he'll make it 3 in a row, the Vectra is just struggling against the BMWs. CVR, dunno whats going on there. Such a promising start...
