the ibiza that got me hooked

[ALEXZ360]

Yeah that's what I keep saying to him. It may be 100hp and a good track day car....but it's still a Panda....

Just Make Your Dad Believe That This Is The Standard Panda

He Will Surely Run Away In Tears, I Know Im Laughing My Arse Off Thinking About What Poor Has To Drive This Everyday

I was going to post that picture but could'nt be bothered copying it over to photobucket lol. So, yeah, don't get the panda pops.

 

[Chris_a_73]

Oh dear lord....

Well my dad used to have a Panda 100hp, and he's actually looking to buy one again. Can't remember it much though... he had it before I was interested in cars

 

[rf860]

You seen the interior, is horrid, the ibiza is better and thats saying something lol.

 

[marksy93]

the 100bhp pandas look good on the outside but its still a fiat on the inside - go for a PD130

took of the KN filter on the bezza tuesday night, MPG is alot higher (even when driven fast) & the car is quicker

Punto Abarth's are looking rather nice !

 

[Chris_a_73]

Hmm my brother had a Punto, and the couple of times I drove it, I really didn't like it. The cabin is massive, and the car feels much longer than an ibiza. Doesn't feel quite an solid as VAG if I'm honest. Always prefer mine to his

Obviously, being an Abarth it could be a whole different kettle of fish, with different interior/clutch/suspension/map etc.

Edit: I just checked my insurance.... I can get an '09 Punto Abarth for £1000 insurance... That's less than my 1.2!!!

Tempting!

However the car is £8.5k.... and mine is worth £4.5k ish....damn.

 

[Veyron]

How could you not like that!?

How could you not like that!?

I Love The Arbarth Punto Its Amazingly Nice But Apperantly The Engine Is Really Badly Built

Chav wagon or what?!?! lmao

 

[marksy93]

plans for the ibiza -

possibly 'copy' chris with the carbon fibre wrapped B pillars
alloys
Cupra rear bumper
gloss black wrapped roof

 

[Chris_a_73]

Sounds good! Out of interest, how much did your insurance go up by, with the new bumper?

 

[marksy93]

not sure, told my dad and he sorted it, i think i got it ok as my dad has a massive amount of other insurance through the same company/salesman

[marksy93]

[Chris_a_73]

Oh niiiice lol. Was that from when you buckled the steelie?

 

[marksy93]

after a few days of having a really bad sound coming from the front left brake i decided to have a look.....no damage, scoring and had loads of pad. however couldnt get the wheel off

took it into the garage today and the result is...new pads & new discs
