You Know You have a mk2 Ibiza When........

[AlpineWhite]

Aah. Missed that bit. Well that would put a different skew on things.....

Seems very cheap to me, but then I don't really know what the going rate is

 

[Brummy]

It does need to go lower. I think tractor stance is 'played out'!!!

Mwahahahahhahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa......................

You know you have a mk2 when...... it's doing "quite well" if it doesn't need something fixing for 2 months!

Yep I know what you mean. Mine went to months without a hitch, then the same problem as you, the battery. Wouldnt hold a charge so needed a new one.

Did you not hear??? 2-2.5k max!!! Thats to source and fit it!!!

I was impressed - but thats what he said!!

Ollie

Mmmmm that sounds interesting. Ive been considering a 1.8T engine because I really dont want to get rid of the Ibiza. How long does it take to fit?? I wouldnt mind driving down and staying a week near waiting for it to be done.

 

[ibiza_95]

2k to source and fit is cheap!? if hes right id bite his arm off at that price... flog your old motor for a few hundred pounds and your onto a winner

 

[OllieL]

Yeah thats what I was thinking
If you were to do that craig you'd probably have to spend a few £ more, as you'd need to sort the brakes out which wouldn't be that easy on the rear of yours.
Is cheap though!!

What he hasn't said is that the can is one of those 1 pint cans

Ollie

 

[jenk]

To make it worse its that limp 4% stuff

 

[AlpineWhite]

It's high, but it's not that high!!!

 

[Brummy]

yep! it is!.. that piccy , i beleive was taken just before the can was moved over to my car, and mine was somewhere about half way down the can

 

[AlpineWhite]

Jenk,
My car, but not my can!

Brummy,
Yes, ok, it is that high. I hang my head in shame! Perhaps I will be best off posting at www.landroverdefender.net or www.hummerdrivers.com
<< See left! <<

 

[Brummy]

www.lookhowhighmycaris.com there ya go, fella..

 

[AlpineWhite]

Cheers John!

 

[OllieL]

Could all be stopped with a quick £200 purchase Ant

Ollie

 

[AlpineWhite]

Ok, well, like I said, I might get the car up together or I might sell in a few months.

But, if I did want a set of shocks and springs, where's best to get em from?

 

[OllieL]

Ive got the Jackson tuning set on the Cupra and think they are pretty good to be honest. Not really heard anyone have any problems to be honest - aren't as refined as a set of expensive jobbies with damping contols etc but I rate them value for money wise

Ollie

 

[Brummy]

could always just cut your springs and cable tie them ?

 

[OllieL]

You could, or .............................choose life

Upto you

Ollie

 

[Brummy]

Choooon!!

you know you have a mk2 when you put your foot down and an uncontrollable smile develops on your face
you know you have a mk2 when the recovery truck driver says i only picked one of these things up yesterday
you know you have a mk2 when your entire day depends on the mood of the car
