Hi all,

Not sure how much to the taste of other PH members this might be but here goes smile

This is my current pride and joy, a 2001 MK3 SEAT Ibiza Cupra currently pushing 296.9 BHP and 344.4 lb/ft

Full details of the car and more photos etc can be found at http://seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=21777...smile

Here's a few recent pics:











All comments/opinions welcome smile

Nice engine bay! Black bonnet ruins it for me though. Make it look standard then its a real Q car

lol, thanks. It's a carbon fibre bonnet - I was wondering about spraying over it at first and fading it out at the edges so you could just see the weave from close up but once I fitted it I found I liked it as it was, though it does give the game away a little smile

I like it, Presume the plate is real and not just a show plate?

very nice car, and loving the blue, but agreed with what the others say, lose the carbon fibre bonnet and it would be perfect

I was at Spring Fest but didn't run down the strip. There's another Ibiza very similar to mine that also went(running more power) that was probably what you captured on video smile

I like the original alloys!
Very nice, probably one of the better colours for it too.
