Ive been on SCN a while now and thought its about time I did a RR thread.
This thread wont be an all out , loads of money fast moving one because the Ibiza is my "sensible" daily driver. I have 2 other cars (well 1 and a bit really) which get most of my time, money and attention but recently I thought is was about time the Ibiza got some love. Im not one for going too OTT and like to keep it subtle and stylish, I dont like bling at all.
Anyway this is how I bought her nearly 2 years ago:
Pretty soon after I bought it I found the console bushes needed replacing so I put Cupra bushes in and polybushed the ARB while I was at it. I also got some HEKO wind deflectors, Ive had these on pretty much all my cars and I wouldn’t be without them. I had to have a new windscreen fitted after a stone flicked off a tractor I was stuck behind and smashed the original, the new one turned out to be better anyway as it has a shaded bit above the rear-view mirror. Also I had to de-wiper the rear window as the washer pipe inside the motor mechanism has sheared and was spraying washer fluid into the motor, I had fitted a polo wiper before it broke and I want to get it back on as soon as I can find a new rear wiper mech at a reasonable price. The only engine mods Ive done so far is a Pipercross panel filter and putting PTFE tape on all the boost pipework joints but hopefully this year Ill do a few more bits.
