I bought this last month for the missus. only 55,000 miles... Seat Ibiza 1.4 Cool/s brum brum
She's named him Ross because he's the same colour as a Toro Rosso!

Chris replaced waterpump and cambelt and I've fixed the dodgy door lock
Some laquer peel on the bonnet which needs sorting and there's a hole in the o/s rear light (if anyone spots one at a breakers let me know!)... but otherwise seems pretty solid!

good cars bud, mate had the tdi verson and it was impressive!

I was missing all the vws I've had

grrr, laquer peel, i have yet to find out how to sort that!

I was thinking of using some 2000 grit wet and dry and soaking it then rubbing down until smooth and then some rubbing compound... worth a try before respraying...

Yes had a word with someone at work, they said smooth the edges then spray with laquer & smooth.

hi can i ask you guys about paint
i have an old 1965 beach buggy vw flat four fiberglass body is this special paint or will it just be celly or 2 pack
thanks julie

I think you'll need paint which can flex for fibreglass. Don't know if you can put a flex additive into normal paint

I've used some of the repair tape to patch the hole in Ross' rear light... I may as well have used sellotape because that's all it seems to be!!
MOT at weekend so hopefully it will be ok! and then I'll have a go at the bonnet!
Meanwhile the truck sits on the road feeling neglected waiting for the next big tip run, house move or camping trip!...

Passed MOT
