ownership

Had a ibiza fr a year of so back but decided to sell up for a alfa spider [B)] , unfortuanatly after a few weeks a tree jumped infront of and wrote it of :cry: . Gone through 3 other cars and a gsxr but still really miss the ibiza so im looking to buy again. Found this one on autotrader but does...

now there's a shocker!!! Clicky Clicky

Bit of an odd thread, but seeing as the Cupra is a keeper, i'd like to ensure it'll keep running well for the next 150,000 odd miles. The car is running a stage 1 map, so I've increased the frequency of servicing to suit. My old Mercedes 190 Cosworth had oil services at 6k intervals & it ran...

basically thought it might be interesting to see what everyone has owned before the ibiza, also what attracted you to your ibiza . . . ? i'll start . . 1. Old crappy escort 1.4 2. R reg Clio 1.2 3. W reg Polo 1.4 4. MK3 Astra 1.4 5. MK3 Astra 1.8 Sport...

Hi Currently thinking about a freetrack, as a nice upgrade from my MK4 Ibiza FR diesel, can anybody confirm if the updated common rail diesel will come to the freetrack, the Seat press release was a bit vague. Also have any freetrack owners got any tails of joy (or despair):D? Cheers in advance.

No tbeen on for a while but im now having to take my ibiza seriously as, A) its giving me problems and B) i was looking to modify the looks and spend some money. Previously had an 01 Puma, bit of a haridressers car i know, but lovely to drive, great short gear box. However i now have an...

Well i just sold the mk3, so i can get the mini fixed up! couldn't have sold it at a better time as my jobs in danger at the minute shall no in the next week! But i would own another mk3 only a diesel would be better!

I thought it was about time I posted some up to date pics of my Leon Cupra 2.0 TFSI. I owned the car for just over a year and I'm enjoying every minute of driving it. The car has been freshly clay bar'd and polished using Meguiars products:- Mods...

After over 3 years of ownership I have had a coilpack go :cry: And what a bummer I now understand what most of you have had to deal with slow driving :(

***NOW SOLD :( - SEE PAGE 3 ONWARDS FOR REPLACEMENT...*** Well, it looked like this before the couple of hundred miles I've driven over the past few days. Now, you'd never guess I'd actually washed it but hey, that's winter for ya... :rolleyes: Pics were taken on Monday. Ouside temp...

Well I've been busy enjoying my new car, and just thought I'd mention a few things ive found. First - after 1 tank of super unleaded, I managed to average (mixed driving) the grand total of 18 mpg! Second - Traction Control, it's only kicked in once and was a bit of a shock really. In my...

Hey guys, After all of my frustrations with SEAT and the problems Ive had (amongst other things) I have decided to get rid of the FR for something else, and today got confirmation that its all gone through I have been around these parts for a year now, and have always used the forums as a...

Had the car for around 3 months now and love 95% of it!:D Having come from the Impreza I was a smidging bit concerned about losing the overtaking ability in 1st and 2nd gears but must say that I'm not disappointed at all. Yeah it doesn't have the same performance but it has really surprised...

Well I am nearly 3 months in now (ok.. so not long long term) but I had a thought today about my old Focus. I just don't miss it one bit :D I am now more in tune with the Leon than ever these days. Got the perfect driving seat position I haven't changed for months. Everything just works and...

The light to the right in the middle of the warning panel has just come on, its an orange pic of an engine. Looks like a management ligtht, car doesnt appear to be running lumpy or anything though.. What could this be telling me? sensor knackered or something?

After owning two mk3 Cupras the time has come to sell up and buy a house with the mrs! :cry: My silver Cupra is going tonight so the reign of the mk3 ends, but on the upside im hoping to pick up a black mk2 16v Cupra tonight [B)] lol! The car will be sorely missed, but houses have to come...

Well I collected my Leon last week and so I thought it was time to report in on how it is to live with :) A quick recap for you. I owned a Ford Focus Titanium 1.6TDCi for 4 months. In that time it spent more time in the garage than on the road. Horrible experience. Horrible driving position...
