My Super Rare Cordoba GTi

[Ibizaman]

Hi all,

Used to own an Ibiza Mk2 GTI 16v, and since selling it i have never been the same.

Managed to pick this little beast up, had to get a train for 4 hours upto Hull after work, but the drive back was worth it.

Finally got round to cleaning her up today and fitted a new clutch cable (dont want that darn pedal box breaking)!


I am absolutely delighted in the condition of the overall car, she drives spot on and i think you will agree the bodywork is stunning. In fact i would probably say it could be the best kept GTi Cordoba in the country - they are pretty rare!!

For those that dont know she runs a 115BHP 1984cc 8v engine - 0-60 in around 8.5 secs.

Comments and ideas welcome - although i think i will be keeping her standard as she is too rare to mess about with!!

mutant car!

I hoped it was a coupe (fabled 2.0 8v Coupe)

But it's got the same bumpers my 1997 coupe had (different to 1998 coupe) - with the rear cut out for the exhaust etc

Not see any before now that weren't on "skinny bumpers"

Looks nice tho

 

[acidstrato]

didnt realise they made a saloon Gti!

looks very good condition though,

 

[lil3520]

excellent condition for its age.

paintwork looks great.

good buy you have there.

 

[Brummy]

looks pretty tidy..

still not sure about five door Cordy's tho'....

 

[WeeJase]

Thats a fantastic looking cordoba and i love that colour, dont suppose you fancy swapping for a 2door 16v do ya?

All the 4doors are GTI's, but there was a Cupra Coupé that ran the 2.0 8v engine too, these are even rarer than the 4 door GTI's and i only know of a couple.

they do look cool. i managed to get my grubby mitts on a press pack for the ibiza cupra r, leon 4 and the cordoba cupra. until then i didn't realise there was a sporty cordoba! did SEAT uk oficially import any leon 4's and if they did how many?

Does look cool but falls into the VAG group ''lets make a nice little car and put even smaller rims on it'' catagory

Bit of tweaing and it'll look well smart IMO!

 

[gazjones]

look nice very good condition for its age!

 

[CORDY_SXMAN]

[gavthelad]

[jenk]

[cordobabrendy]

Saw a cantabrian blue gti cordoba this week, a few dented panels but still looks strangely nice!
