I was not really expecting to this but over and above everything else so far I have to admit the brake upgrade is paying me back more than anything else. I am running effectively LCR brakes. Front: 323mm vented 40 groove discs (black zinc coated off ebay CRN performance) Brembo 4 pot...

Over the last few months Ive been debating about getting a gti or not, but Ive decided to keep my current Ibiza (1.4). Some people may say I'm mad as I've just turned 21 and I'm keeping the 1.4 but I have several reasons: 1) Ive just spent around £500 on it getting stuff done, brakes, 4...

Hi All I am the proud new owner of a 55 Cupra R in black. I am falling in love;-) Anyway. I know (I think I do) the Cupra has the TT engine, A3 dash .... I keep on seeing different parts from different VW Group cars making up the car. Does someone have a list they could throw together? Purely...

After doing a T-cut and standard wash and wax on my car it looked very clean and lovely but i don't think the colour is the best for getting the noticeable 'wow' sparkle like other colours i.e black, red blue. Can someone add their opinion or advice on this. cheers

Cleaning the car, and for the first time the engine bay: Jacked it up... AND HOLY **** that IS NOT supposed to fall off!!! wtf, i could have died!! It just fell off!!! I dont believe it! I will be naming and shaming on a local forum. OZ Seat Sport Super T's in black fitted...

Hey all, I figured the MK1 guys would be able to answer my question, as the MK2 lot don't seem to be able. :p Basically do any of the Seat made alloy wheel centre caps fit after market alloys? I have a set of New style RS4 alloys that I am desperately trying to find a decent set of caps for...

Hi all, After 2 weeks of owning my new 07 SEAT LEON 2 Stylance i am beggining to wonder why i purchased this car and not stuck with my 56 plate VW GOLF Match edition 1.6 FSI, no problems with that car at all, only had it 4 months, but decided to change it as i liked the look of the...

The big 6 figure number Good on ya girl, many more happy miles to come :D

Hiya all, All the talk about washing cars over on the mk2 section of the forum finally persuaded me to pull my finger out and finally give the car a proper scrub it deserves. But its easier said then done. Problem being the weather being utter rubbish as well as lack of time (working 65 hours...

New Toy on Route from the USA for myself and Addo also believe Bill got one coming too, hoping to see improvement in performance and Bling factor :p Thanks to Don R at Elite Dubs for pics should be soon, something different to usual mods and should compliment others, running out of...

After months of humming and hawing and trying to decide between a TDi Sport (100) or TDi FR I have now bit the bullett and made a purchase. As of a week on Tuesday I should be the proud owner of a Brand new Ibiza TDi FR in Luna Grey with the Lux pack. Traded in my 20VT FR and worked a good...

I was having a play on the weekend and have come up with a cheap simple system, although its not finished. What you lot think, When the pump is connected to the battery it gives a very good even powerful spray across the whole intercooler. Iam currently waiting for a illuminated push button...

Her 8 yr old 100k miles Megane Coupe was getting on a bit so went car hunting yesterday with her. Told her the world that was SEAT (same as VW/Audi but much better VFM) and took her to our nearest dealer. Sat in the new Ibiza....not bad! Looked at brochure and prices...wow well within...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2002-SEAT-LEON-CUPRA-R-YELLOW_W0QQitemZ4615391806QQcategoryZ18270QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Not personally my cup of tea, but roll cage, decals, and kit look fairly authentic. Is this for real (ie. a SEAT track car run by SEAT, and not just a replica)?

After much changing my mind, I think I have decided to get a mk3 Cupra, especially after getting a quote of just over a grand to insure it when I get my full years no claims, not bad for 20 years old and what will be 1 years no claims, driving 3 years. So end of March will be looking for a...

Has anyone here gone down the route of a custom made jobbie for their ibiza 20vt? Im thinking of going this way to be a bit differnet. Choose my own tail pipe and sound etc. But did you notice a gain or a loss in performance? I spoke to ascar exhausts today (www.exhaustsuk.com) and the chap...
