You know when you have a mk2 ibiza when...

You're shi**ting yourself about the MOT. Going over and over a few concerns in your head and praying that it'll pass.

When you look at your petrol gauge and it looks like you have enough fuel to get to a petrol station but in actualy fact you have less than you think because the angle you sit at makes it look more.

 

[LMJ]

YES!... Or when you have a quarter tank for quite a while, you stop for the journey, then start up the car again, and the finger comes up WAY lower than it was.

you know you have a 2.0 mk2 when u can watch the fuel gauge go down without even moving!

 

[LMJ]

You know when you have a 1.4 and you're convinced that £20 of petrol should last longer (being only a 1.4)!!!

And I don't have a particular heavy foot either!... intentionally of course, or that kinda economy would be understandable. And Bangor is not particularly biult up, it's pretty spread out, so there's not much stop starting to be honest!... It's serviced often, a single point? if that makes any difference... but yeah - pretty shocking.

 

[vngtx]

if u were driving up slopes/hills/mountains, that mpg wud make sense.

 

[LMJ]

Haha that isn't you trying to sum up Wales there is it?! ...but yeah - it's crap!

 

[vngtx]

narh i used to be in sheffield every weekend and used half a tank in 80 miles. only just enough power to get up the hills.

 

[Pander]

what the hell is it with the last quarter of a tank! i thought it was only mine, but once that fuel light comes on, you better pray theres a petrol station within 20 odd miles or your screwed

when it looks $hite when its dirty... but immense when its clean

never ever liked the side of the car when its dirty but its sweet when its gleaming :s

 

[LMJ]

You know you have a Mk2 Ibiza when you're convinced that it's love, but your mates nor your parents understand you.

 

[suj]

you know you have a mk2...
...when you can change the slam panel in 1.5hours (including taking off of front end, and putting it back on)

 

[vngtx]

you know you have a mk2 when you can change the front grill, front bumper, and rear bumper in less than 20 minutes.

 

[gtikezz]

you know you have a mk 2 when your car breaks down you wait 50 mins for the rac to come and sort it out they try loads of things to fix it, then they ask the question about your immobiliser and you then remember that you turned the key the top of the fob fell off and you put it back together not realising the chip had fell out on the floor

 

[vngtx]

ouch, embarrasing.....my battery died outside quikfit other week and when i asked for help i waited 25 minutes for the amatuers then tried it again out of boredom and started straight away!

 

[gtikezz]

yea it was a bit , but at least it wasnt anything major
