I'd read up a bit about the Cupra R before I decided to get one, including a number of magazine reviews. I got the impression that they definitely had an issue with taking speed bumps. There was no way that was gonna stop me getting one, but as I've not had a car with as little ground clearance...

Hi had a service today, exhaust is on it's way out but only after the cat. Is there any real benefit to non standard pipes without doing down pipe and cat as well? Budgeting at the moment, so can't spend loads, which will stop me doing full system.

Hello, Would a TDI Ibiza be faster than say a 2 litre petrol in real world driving? Unsure about getting a cupra tdi or a 2 litre N/A petrol.

I currently own a mountune focus st 260, its great fun, however 28 mpg is a little costly. That’s what the trip computer shows after 1500 miles. I’ve been looking at the lean 170 diesel as a replacement. I know the mpg question has been asked many times, however; I’m interested in the real...

will mk2 wheels fit a mk1? ie stud pattern the same???:D

Not sure if this has been posted but here are some pics. It looks nice. Not liking the alloys or the fact the seat sport calipers at a £1100 option!!! Here is a link to a slide show: http://s724.photobucket.com/albums/ww243/mardon85/Bocanegra/?albumview=slideshow Here is a sky...

Hi all I was wondering if i could pick your brain on this one. I have a Forge Split R DV and although i've never had any problems with power delivery etc, i do think i may have it set up wrong or something isn't right:think: Its (as i hope) running in 1/2 re-circ 1/2 blow-off mode. I've...

Just jumped into my car, as I was driving down the road a sqeaking from the front(I think) brakes got louder and louder, until it was unbearably loud. Waited a while and took the car back out, left the handbrake off while it was parked, and the same things just happened again..any ideas, Im...

Hey all. Starting my progress thread as it took a while to start modding, but have now made some changes. keep posted as before and after pics will come soon. sold to new owner as follows: - mk2 Leon FR 6 speed gear knob - mk2 Leon FR steering wheel - 6K H7R HID conversion - Bosch Front...

the battery in my rcl key fob recently packed in, so being a simple task and armed with the knowledge that anything in the world can be fixed with a hammer, a 10mm spanner and a can of strongbow i set about replacing the battery. needless to say i made a hash of it and broke the chip clean...

Just wondered if anyone has put a proper spare in the boot instead of the standard moped wheel? I've only had a few punctures in my time, but I know that being limited to 30 and having to go straight to a garage to get it fixed would have been a total fecker, so I've been thinking of getting...

my ibiza is just being a pain in the a**e it was fine then all of a sudden i got a missfire quite a while ago. and it went through 2 distributor caps and rotor arms (leaving a white powder inside). then i realised it was mainly in the wet when it missfired. then i thought nothing of it...

Should i attempt to DIY colour code my bumpstrips etc, I did my alloys about a month or two ago and am well chuffed with the results but was wondering if i should really attempt to do the bumper/bump strips etc. Very tempted because I hate them at the mo. If I do it, should I wait to get the...

As the title says does anybody have any real life photos of the mk5 ibiza in galia blue, preferably in 3 door thanks

Most of us think of Leon's (Cupra) central console as a very boring piece of this car. Well today I received - straight from US - the full kit of real carbon fiber interior trims, for Leon and Leon Cupra. I must say the quality surpasses/overshadows any amount of money I had to pay to bring it...
