Well the unthinkable has happened, losing my job. 60days notice to work so have to sell the ibiza. GUTTED.
Here we have my Seat Ibiza Cupra. Car has done 59,000 miles and in my opinion one of the best road going Ibiza's ever. I am the third owner since new and wish i was keeping it ALOT longer.
Since owning the car I have spent about 3k on putting new discs and pads, getting the manifold and downpipe ceramic coated, wheels refurbished and labour costs and also getting gearbox overhaul as a bearing collapsed and had to get new 4th gears put in. It is used as a car that comes out at the weekends/nice days and have done a measly 2500miles since owning it from January 2008. Anyway here is the spec of the car (Beware it is pretty long but it shows what work has been done to the car)

There will be loads of things i have missed of the list that i can't remember. This is one of if not the highest spec road going MK3 ibiza's in the country and its a truely awesome car. I am not sure what the performance could be compared too, but its quick and is capabable of a high 12 second quarter mile and a genuine 160+ MPH.
It has had a oil and filter change every 3 - 4 K. (Just serviced last week 25/7/2008) Its recently had an Aircon service and brake fluid change on it too.
Only the best parts have been used for this car, and its a genuine 1 off, the manifold alone cost me over £1000 and the down pipe had to be custom fabricated.
This turbo conversion alone would cost over £ 10K to have done by a tuning comany.
Please look at this link which shows the whole build, sorry but it is 43 pages in length, and as you can see everything was done by the previous owner and his dad to a very high standard.

Also the car has 6months MOT and 6months Road Tax. Looking for £8,800.00 for the car.
To summarise :-
I have done 2500miles since January 08 when i bought the car.
Ceramic coating to manifold & downpipe(less than 100miles)
Wheels refurbed (less than 100miles)
Serviced (less than 100miles)
4new coil packs (500miles)
Brembo grooved discs & ferodo pads (less than 300miles)
Gearbox rebuild (bearing went and two new gears) Less than 100miles
New G60 Flywheel when gearbox got done also
All done at a cost circa £3000.
Thanks, Derrick.
