of course, cant beat a good sleeper

i'd much rather have a shitter with nice engine over a uber clean motor, with a slow engine

not saying whittey's is slow, as it's a 1.6 sport, but it's too clean for me, as i hate cleaning car's anyway

Swings also lack a glovebox, you just get a tray

Mine was full GSI spec by the time it went

Do it Whittie

Even tho it's a sleeper Eck's does look mint, especially for the age.

If you can afford that and the Cupra get it done.

I'm all for performance over looks, only reason I'm still driving a 1.2 is cos insurance was fairly heavy the first 2 years and now I've just not got the money. So upto now I've been getting it looking alright, then when money permits it's gonna be XE time with the money I've spent on mine, mainly the brand new Comps and Bilstein suspension I'd rather keep it and throw an XE rather than a full on sleeper, but it still doesn't look that special. It's gonna be a bit more stealth sound wise too

id be surprised if it wasnt rusty as fook underneath

also if your using it just to get to work and back keep the 1.6, as someone else pointed out, its worth more, will be easier to sell etc

THe question here is why would you need a run around to get to work if your buying an Ibiza?

Surely an XE which "may" have reliability issues and cost a fair bit to insure will be plain silly?

If you isist on two cars just keep the sport.
