Hi Guys,

I'm new here, currently drive a Corsa GSi but looking to get an Ibiza Cupra in the near future.

Could you all post pics of the nicest silver mk3 Ibiza Cupras you can think of?

Id like to get a silver one but just wanna make sure :p

Thanks guys,

James

James_723 I think you now know that it's being red that makes a Ferrari fast and the same goes for Cupras.

I've had two red cars now and they are wicked fast! :p

Yep :doh: ... The LCR was revo'd so it's not right to compare but I wouldn't say the LCR is twice as good or twice as fast as the Ibiza and cartanly doesn't hold the road twice as good :whistle:

'IF' I don't/can't sell the Ibiza and I go ahead with the K03s turbo etc then I am sure there will not be that much difference going on a A - B road. Did love that LCR though ... just a shame they have depreciated so much. Then again I was getting about 24mpg with the Leon and I am getting 32/34mpg with the Ibiza :funk: So a big saving on fuel bills is a good thing :yes:

Same here if i get 25m to the galon id be taking my time! And mines standard! getting it remmaped in feb so im dreading the fuel bill!!

Ok this is strange, thermalp4 was getting around 26mpg and he was forced to sell but that was his 'fun' car and comuting vehicle. In all honesty I very rearly 'rag' my car ... I have an R6 for scaring myself with and the standard cupra for going to work in. I did put the induction kit on the car 3 days ago so I'll see if that effects anything. :shrug:

25mpg!!!! ... C'mon my revo'd LCR was doing that!!!! if my Ibiza was doing 25mpg I'd have got shot of it by now as I am sure there can be better thrills to be had for less than 25mpg! I have been on the TVR forum a few times and they are complaining about 16mpg or mid 20's on a run (avg of 22/23mpg) then the Evo's are getting 18mpg treated as it should (75% normal driving and 25% enjoying the whole Evo experience) and Scoobs are not much better than the Evo's :rolleyes:

My bike will do about 60/70 miles between £6.50 refills (not sure how accurate this will be.

£6.50 ~ 7.75L UL
7.75L x .22 ~ 1.705 Gallons

65miles on 1.705 Gallons = 38.123 mpg ... hmmm better than my old bike ;)

Can't complain at that.
