hi, i have been looking to buy a mk3 ibiza cupra for a couple of months now, was pretty particular as i wanted one not to far away, in the blue colour and with not to many mods. last week i came across a blue one which was advertised, 126k 7 months mot no tax, lowered on coilovers, brembo cupra brakes, 17"s (not a fan of tbh) s/s exhaust, piper air filter and a stage 1 remap. I managed to pick it up quite cheap as a few of the panels have a few marks in them n passengers side rear corner has a big dent from a previous owner. so went to have a look over it with a friend whos a mechanic and he checked the car over n said was all good so took for a test drive and as soon as we started picking up i started smiling, sounded lush n for the price i couldnt really complain. so ended up buying it and have had it a few days now and really happy with the purchase, their are a few issues like dents think possibly a worped disc as a lot of vibration from front passengers side under braking n a couple of other minor things but like i said for the price i payed i cant complain. have got a few plans for the girl but just want to get it looking good n healthy first. so plans are sunday going in for cam belt n fully service n tweek of the exhaust as it just clips the anti roll bar n noise is really doing my head in, not loud just annoying lol. then going to db's to get a quote on all the body work and have that done so it looks mint. not a fan of the 17" alloys it has i like the standard ibiza cupra alloys but their not wide enough, want around a 8j maybe 9j depending what fits. once she is all good n looking nice i want to put a ko3s on it n take it to stage two. not to sure what i need to take it to stage two as havent really thought that far ahead so any advice would be great. would post up a few pics but cant seem to do it. cant u use photo bucket n copy n paste the img code? cheers
