Damon's first little 1.2 mk4 *sold .... Gone ... Bye bye :( *

[phillpotts92]

The cupra bushes?

 

[damon6uk]

Well I needed new ball joints aswell so I just all the parts and sending it into the garage

 

[phillpotts92]

Yea. How much to get the bushes done?

 

[damon6uk]

£40 to get two wishbones with complete bushes and cupra bushes in

 

[phillpotts92]

Eh?! I've heard to get cuora bushes fitted its like £150

 

[damon6uk]

What? Haha I think mines easier because the wish bones are all going in

 

[phillpotts92]

How much Inc parts?

 

[damon6uk]

All the bushes and wish bones just near £60

 

[phillpotts92]

So £100 for all new parts and fitted?!

 

[damon6uk]

Yeah

 

[Chris_a_73]

Eh... Ibiza bushes take ages to fit, due to requiring a specialist tool and having to press them out and in again. The lowest I was quoted was £130 inc. tracking....

 

[phillpotts92]

That's what I mean lol its well cheap if he gets em done for that

 

[Blanco92]

My Ibiza doesn't have movement quite like that with the gearknob. It moves a bit; they all do. Either way I've seen a lot worse than that. What mileage is the car on Damo?

On the Cupra bushes... you're getting new wishbones supplied with Cupra bushes already fitted? That would work out cheaper as it saves on labour costs... only my understanding was the dealer can't sell the wishbones with the Cupra bushes attached, only the standard bushes.

 

[damon6uk]

I bought the wishsbome and bushes separate and there all going in as one

 

[damon6uk]

Going to pick it up now so should see if it's a good job?

 

[Jordanwaterhous]

Sorry if i'm being thick here but...
Did you buy 2 new wishbones and 2 new cupra bushes and get them fitted for LESS than it would cost to buy 2 new cupra bushes and have them fitted??

 

[damon6uk]

pretty much he said less labor and les messing about just a straight swap

 

[Jordanwaterhous]

That's good, so how much did you save?

 

[damon6uk]

Did a great job
Aswell plus cupra bushes really do make a difference

 

[damon6uk]

Think about £70 give or take
