Hi guys!
Just bought my '98 Seat Ibiza end of November, and then read the "you know you own a mk2 when...". Had me in stitches as I realised that most of these problems had already presented themselves! It's bright yellow (or should I say, three shades of yellow?!)
After taking it for a service today, I ended up with a long list of reports of what I simply must have done to it, namely all four brakes, new wiper mechanism (think my string of hair ties from the stalk to the sunvisor is better than a new mechanism any day!) wheel bearings, "interfering" electrics and a faulty passenger window.
Rather than spend the £914 that Halfords wanted me to, I've decided to use the power of the internet (and the mechanical skill of my other half and uncle) to fix it all myself!
So my everday runaround has turned into the project car I always wanted but didn't think I could afford! Haha
