160k, at least 1 fault code on at all times, not serviced for 7k (which ive covered in just 10 weeks) and an intermitant missfire and it will still do 123mph on a straight....runway/dragstrip 
even in limp mode!

Yeah but I don't think I will ever get to lowering my car or something, I'm only a cheap-*** student remember... I do think they're cool though, and very handy, since you won't notice any scratch on it.
Then again, does black paint actually stick to that surface? Also, on the inset-edges, it looks like it is starting to peel?! Really weird, like a layer is slowly coming off. I think I'd rather get some 2nd hand or new ones... Also because I'm not that great of a painter, somehow it always starts to drip somewhere.
But really, isn't there some kind of substance for it? I can use Commandant 4 on my plastic GLX spoiler thingy when it goes pink and that works perfectly, isn't there something like that for non-flat surfaces? :O
@under me: as it for?
I think I'm going to be a bit easier on that little motor, really want to keep the car for a long time!
lol, I'm a cheap ass student too! You'll find the money somewhere
Yeah it does if you do the job right, its all in the prep
Or you can use back to black polish, or something seed oil that suj on here found, cheap and gets all the plastics back to black
and 209k!?
Hmm, might try that then I love being cheap!
Yes, 209890km I think... Wait.. that's what makes it seem strange, you guys measure in miles don't you? Anyways, 209000 km is what it has.... Which is 129000 miles, which is kind of what you guys think is much so.. Sorry guys, you'll see me forgetting a lot that you guys always use miles, always thought they used km in England.
Also, part of the header is greasy/oily as *beep*, and it might leak a very very little bit of oil, but really.. 2 drops every day is all it does. I have a pic where it says 208611 km

i hope mine lasts that long lol ive just serviced mine and i tried the thing to reset the service message but the method on here doesnt seem to work :/
Probably because mine's been in an accident some day...
You know you have an MK2 Ibiza when you find your indicator lights aren't alligned with the fenders, hood and headlights, assuming that's on every Ibiza... Although every day you walk past a Polo Classic(sedan, orange indicators) with the same front end, and on that it is all perfectly alligned

@Mythbuster, referring back to the previous page... there are a few pre-facelift ones still lingering about on FleBay!... UK FleBay anyway... have a look mate!

You mean the indicators are recessed? Or sunk into the wing rather than sit flush? That would be because you're a pre-facelift. Mine are the same! Pretty crap fitting tbh
Found one indeed.. Thing is I don't have 60 bucks lieing around at the moment. Only got 400 euros left which I'll probably need for fuel and school stuff, and I only earn like 50 bucks a month(I can only work on Saturdays, and every other Saturday another guy takes my place, so I only work 2 Saturdays per month... Oh well), and with road tax and insurrance being 40 bucks a month, I don't have much to spare at the moment.
I'll go try the seed oil trick first, the bumper does look really nice though! Thanks for the suggestion!
Also, yep they're sunk into the wing, they're alligned with the headlights, but sunk in... Maybe I'll try to get some facelift indicators? Or is the mounting the thing that actually changed? Or is it possible to adjust it?
It's a pity I spent so much time and money on the car, I'll probably end up getting nothing back for it when I sell it, or worse...

you know you have a mk2 when you put anything heavier than 100g in the boot and it just sinks...
You know you have a mk2 when nothing fits in the boot in the first place
The parcel shelf collapses and you have to do a balancing act to get anything in

not true, ive managed to fit 3 12" subs, 4 amps, and still have space for a pushchair
you know u have a mk2 when the b*****d throttle body just decides to stop working properly over night and when you need it, it doesn't work.
The only thing I can fit is the 3-wheeler and that's it! the shopping has to go on the back seat!
I should add it doesn't help that plastic thing that lifts the parcel shelf up when you open the boot has snapped on one side so I have to balance it on the top of the back seat whilst trying to fit the buggy in without disturbing the 6x9s! Phew!

tiggs mine broke too, so I plastic welded a new makeshift on the left side, and reinforced the no broken one on the other side
When you spend a couple of hours with the soldering Iron and your chipprogammer and acheive the ability to adjust the milage on the clocks .
