Mate that is reet good. Def need to get my engine bay dressed up a bit. Think I will get the body work done first though!
Looks amazing though mate. Must be so happy that you have it back!

Looks sweet as a nut Sam. Now don't you go blowing this one up any time soon ;)

Just out of interest, how long did it take for the Samco hoses to be ordered up and delivered?

I like the white badge. That gives me alittle idea now. :whistle:

Was going to do the rear badge black but I may just have to do it white the same as my car.

Im planning to clear out my rear arches aswell. Had a look at them today and they are full of mud. But I dont have any major rust issue yet.

cheers chaps, yes im so so glad i kept it and done the work on it now, really happy again.

those are the standard cupra 2 oem gauges chrisdaman, got them off abay.de with the new pressure sender switch so should just be plug and play! there ment for lhd so need some modding to make them look tidy, anybody any tips on what to do?

rich must be you mate, there both clear but slightly smoked if you know what i mean.

yeah does need spacers for the rears, had to take my last 20's off to sell as it wouldnt even fit on...shame im now skint

was thinking of going and getting a mk2 golf to do up but i reckon theyre just too old now unless you've got some serious money to burn, every advert starts with "just recently replaced the timing belt, clutch, wheel bearings, water pump etc etc etc etc." i just figured they'd be too much hassle, better the devil you know lol. plus i actually think that a well sorted ibiza like this is a better looking car.
