I'm not 17 until the end of August but I've just bought my first car . If you've read some of my postings you may know that I swapped my mountain bike for a 2009 Aerox Rossi rep (see my posting 'ready to sell') . I sold the rox for £900 and today I've bought a 2004 Seat Ibiza 1.2 in white for £850. The body work is mint but it needs a good valet and a new coil spring (supplied with it) . it's got 15" VW alloy wheels at the moment but my dad has a spare set of 17" team dynamic Mode alloys in black with polished spokes hat will bolt straight on when fitted with the right size tyre. We saw the car advertised locally and nearly pissed ourselves laughing cos it's got the word Ibiza in orange letters about 12" high stuck on it. But at £850 it's got to be a bargain and 5 minutes with a hair dryer will see them gone. These are the wheels I'm going to fit, they were on my dad's Jag when he bought it but thought they were too pimp for it and replaced them. I think they'll look good on the Ibiza . My dad's picking it up tommorrow and I'll post some more photos when It's cleaned up.
now thats a true bargain mate! haha! the ibiza is actually a nice car and for its money you gave its perfect! and you didnt spend pretty much anything... haha all started with the mountain bike lol i like those rims aswell and yeah they dont fit for shit in the jag...
Spent Sunday cleaning and polishing the car, it looks really good now. I've tried the Team Dynamic wheels and they fit so I just need to get some spigots and new bolts.
I reckon some lowering and some white rims would look awesome, maybe some touring car style ones like these;
I like the first rims, but the Team dynamics look good and they're free. My dad was going to put them on fleebay but too late they're mine now.
Brown ones? I think they're Silver photographed in a strange light, either that or you shit silver nuggets like the goose with the golden eggs.
They wouldnt have fetched much on ebay i dont think mate, they look too 'ripspeed' ... Should bang some lenso bsx's on it, or some cheap leon cupra/ibiza cupra rims or something
I know where your coming from but theyre free , when it's on the road insured etc I'll see what I can afford, but in the meantime I might paint them all black. For 'Ripspeed' I think you mean 'pimped'.
haha i suppose ya got a good point.. if its free, and good, use it Yeah i meant Pimped, xzibit wants to put some tvs in your bumpers and put a snaketank in your backseat Lool
Done a bit to the car now. I painted the 17" team dynamic wheels black, I've fitted a Flitrap sub and a complete interior from a newer sports model. I managed 3 pics when my camera died . So it's a brief look at how it's progressing.
Cheers mate, I've got a rear bumper lower spolier to go on ( Genuine SEAT so it looks really good and fits properly) and I'm saving up for a facelift front bumper to put on it then some coilovers. My mates have got Corsas and it's good to be different.
My plan is to lower it but the roads around here have got so many speed bumps I'd be quicker walking. I'll get some adjustables and then I can find the best height to make it look cool but still clear the bumps. I've just found out that my car is ultra rare. It seems that white was popular in the earlier Ibiza's but not generally available on the Mk4's until they were facelifted in late 2006. I've been on the owners club forum and it is the first one that they have seen.
