i had to mot both the ibiza's today, the yellow 1.4s and the topaz blue gti 16v.
They yellow one passed with flying colours which is a bonus as it has been sold but the gti failed :(

luckily it wasn't to bad. wish bone bushes on both sides need replacing. £12 for both sets of bushes each side or £30 for two compleate new wishbones with bushes already in place.

im thinking about getting the new compleate wishbone instead of fannying around trying to get the bushes in.

or

by uprated ptfe bushes and put in original wishbones as im going to fit coilies at the same time.

what do you think? also is it worth changing ball joints for the sake of £6 each?

opinions please ladies and gents?

:)
