So this is my 2006 Mk4 Ibiza.

Bought it 2nd hand for 2500, this car is a massive step up from my previous car (2000 ford fiesta haha), it actually has heating :O

It is the sport version so its 1.4 100bhp (petrol) or 74kw..however you wana call it.

In need of a good clean inside and out but the engine bay is tidy enough.

Joined this website primarily because i couldn't figure out how to get through the engine bay and in to the glove box to attatch power wire from battery to my active sub.
But I figured i'll use it to gain knowledge on how to go about all the modification s i plan to do sucha as install coilovers, change out the headlights and install hid's, change grill to debadged honey comb one etc...and basically any other suggestions anybody has on here to make this car look tasty :)

additionally, gain knowledge on fixing one or two mechanical/interior issues i have with the car. i.e: weird squeek coming from inside dashboard every 2nd day (strange i know), cup holder stuck inside dashboard (wont eject) and passenger seat will not fold forward to allow passengers to get in the back (its a 3 door)

would have pics but apparently im not allowed post any till i make 15 posts?

Hi and welcome. I'm from N.Ireland as well. Were bouts you from?

I'd suggest lowering, alloys and straight through. Maybe a map to make it more quicker for you
