on driving it home from fitting suspension had a nice package through the door which is my metal pressed plates, to get into my drive slightly steep and the ibiza makes it up jus with a little to spare so happy with that

I suspect it used to have some ghastly morettes during the early 00's (as it doesn't have the GTi headlights). Good cars, know the 8v inside out!

Sweet, nice one getting such a good Mk2 with low mileage. Been thinking of getting a Mk2 to do up so I'm more comfortable doing up my Mk4.

Liking the anthracite alloys. Transforms the look.

If you don't mind me asking, where did you get the alloys refurbed and how much per corner? I'm looking to do the same on mine as I've kerbed the crap out of them and fancy the anthracite look.
