    Dropped the rear suspension down a little bit more today & removed the spare wheel & rear wiper assembly.
    Thats a 13kg weight saving! Every little helps lol

    Looks smart that :thumbup:

    Where are you based? I have a few Ibiza odds and sods from one I scrapped - bits of trim, tinted glass etc. Yours looks really tidy so I doubt you'll need anything but it'll probably be chucked out soon if it's not claimed. Welcome to it.

    Fun cars these (even though the one I had was a complete dog! lol)

    That reading from Inters' was a bit high lol. Good work fella!

    Look into a lighten flywheel if you looking for performance. One of the mods I always said I wish I did sooner!

    Great rollers [:s] , they were idiots too!

    If the clutch goes on me i'll get a lighter flywheel on, but for now i don't fancy spending cash on it. Starting to fancy a mk3 tbh
