Telford ay it...
I really hope potential buyers dont see this and get put off :lol:

You know you have a midfacelift gti when your back box takes 2 days to be delivered to the garage via donkey cart and you CAT has to be carefully selected from the vag range due to no specific listing.
 
Its quite a long list so far :O

You know you have a mk2 Ibiza when.....
you can't select 1st,3rd or 5th gear because you plugged something into the cigarette lighter socket
your left leg is stronger than your right
you need physio on your left leg
all panels different colour...guess who's got a Kiwi?
laquer falls off bumpers
rear parcel shelf no longer stays in position when opening hatch
exhaust bangs underneath & you can't work out why no matter how many times you fix it
you have to concentrate to stop the rear wiper!
you buying, parts for Golfs and Polos
the cup holder in the glove box , you carn't drive around with cups sitting in it
you can't find any coins that fit the coin holder
you're next at the car wash on a hot day and both your window regulators fail on you.
you take your foot off the clutch pedal and you hear a horrible noise
your friends ask you whats up with the noisey engine you say "thats the ABF for ya"
your power steering belt is squealing AGAIN!
you hear a rattle from underneath your car and you can 99% guarantee its the cat heat shield
you have got a 1.4 ibiza when the gear box feels like it could blow up at any time
your back end is tailhappy cos VAG in there wisdom decided to make the rear track narrower by around 40mm
the model and equipment of your car depends solely on what mood Pedro was in and what parts were left over in the factory the day your car was made
Polo drivers look up to you!!!
you try to insure the car with the longest name in history.
seat ibiza 2.0 16 valve cupra sport
your pedal box falls apart at 73k miles
the remote locking packs up (again) and no matter how many times you try to re-sync it, it's having none of it.
you know your in a valver when ur struggling for grip in 3rd!
the ABF sporadically decides to misfire at any given moment.
you feel every single ripple and rut in the road, and speed bumps are like coliding with mountains.
you sell your MK2 for something else, regret it... then buy another.
you dont gash your hands to peices around the rear top mounts
the hand brake doesn't work properly
you fill up the water bottle then press the rear wiper, no water comes out and u find out the wee pipe in the boot has come loose for the 50th time..
when the window regulators pack in, never to be replaced
your silver ronal multi spokes just decide to oxidise over night.
you slap on a full F2 body kit and it doesn't look remotly chav, but instantly cool.
the clutch pedal decides to snap without warning
the clutch fork in the gearbox snaps with warning
you fit a mesh grille the locals say "nice saxo"
the front splitter keeps getting nicked to end up on some shitbox nova/saxo
you have to replace the top mounts for every mot
the brand new top mounts you fit to pass the MOT dont last
yet again it wont start yet you cant find out why
you walk into your local dealer and they say "what's that then ??"
you visit a vw dealer for parts and they refuse to give you what you want because they swear to god your engine hasnt come out of a golf.
eurocarparts wont serve you as you have ordered vw gold brake discs for a mk2 ibiza
you can get parts for your car but you have to lie about non owning and ibiza and claim you own some vw car just to get it.
you know you have a mk2 2.0 16v when everyone trys to sell you 256mm discs
you know you have a SEAT ibiza.but the guy at your local motor factors is looking through a parts catalogue muttering FIAT ibiza FIAT ibiza .as you stand there taking the piss.

you know you have a mk2 ibiza (1.4) when your k&n sits on top ...wtf

you know you have a mk2 ibiza when you smile about the cost of how much you saved compared to the polo/golf.

you know you have a mk2 ibiza when you tilt your seat and cant get out of the car!

you know you have a mk2 ibiza when you buy stuff on ebay ...but then realise it was either for a polo/golf or pre-facelift version

you know you have a mk2 ibiza when you read this ..lol.

you know you have a mk2 ibiza when you hear "hey, nice polo"

when you have a sticker saying your car won the f2 world rally, despite it being a 1.4 engine

when you put mk3 cupra alloys on and it looks better than on the original car

when on a 1.4 the suspension looks like you are driving a tractor

your hot air intake pipe is made of kitchen foil and disintegrates easily

when you start to get rust on the door sills at the seal

when your front tyres need replacing after 18months, but the rears are fine

when you cannot feel the road through the steering wheel but only through the bodywork, and despite your best efforts you cannot find out why
