BTW - the eBay seller makes a proposal of FULL REFUND MY MONEY with his own PICKING UP of my bad coiovers, so this sounds very fair to me...

its just that it looks like a problem ive seen before on older ibizas with standard suspension, on earlier ibizas the ARB's dont have a collar on them and they can slide to one side causing the drop link to rub and score the chassis. The newer ARB's were brought out with retaining collars. (look closely next to the bushes).
Just what i thought when i saw your pictures!
When was this introduced?
I've had TA-Technik coilovers on me car for about 10K now and not had any problems.
They are also slightly different from the photos above...
These are mines, pre-fitting of shorter droplinks ... I fitted shorter droplinks because the ARB was rubbing off the driveshaft.
I'm reverting back to standard suspension though because the roads over my area etc are terrible ... so if any of you guys fancy selling your standard suspension setups I am interested in buying.

hiya mate when have they said they'll pick them from you, they have aslo said the same to me full refund and collection on tuesday
Just checked mine, they are v-maxx style with a straight (thicker) plate and the low mounting holes, so I should be OK 
fwiw mine were from http://stores.ebay.co.uk/StreetwearTuning

So looks like ill be saving up to get FK ones to replace my hottuning ones?
Ill take a look tonight and see if there is any faults, but everything seems fine for me except a rough ride.
Its on its highest setting and its still pretty low though...?

Did you use shortened drop links with yours?
The issue appears to be that these are designed for use with the standard (long) droplinks as they have their mounts higher to accomodate the lower chassis.

...neither noise during riding over bumps??? Mine are knocking so noisy in every f*** hole :-( What height You set-up? I tried all - from lowest to highest & still same.
- Bended brackets was due to differences between TA-Technix and V-Maxx and wrong using of shorter droplinks.
- And creaking was because ARB gets different position after lowering. I tried ride my car today without droplinks and creakink was gone! But still knocking...
So I'll go back to my standard SEAT Sport suspension
BTW: Where are You from fr-tdi? I would like to see Your susp. in real...

Yours are the type which need the shorter droplinks, as they have the lower mounting positions.
Glad yours were OK, as they're what I'm about to fit
