2007 Seat Ibiza Cupra 1.8T
Bought back in the day when SEAT was still available in South Africa. Then VW SA decided to pull them out of the country? Was it competition? Taking Focus away from the parent company? Loosing sales? Who knows anyways being the petrol head I am here is some mods done to it, its still a WIP since a project car owns you and your wallet!

Comments
Your Seat looks awesome. Silly of VW SA tho but I guess it was a business decision. Plenty of Seat faithful still around here in JHB
Thank you! Yip luckily the Seat community here is still very active, I try to attend as much as possible unfortunately it’s a bit of a drive. You from SA?
F me its fast
Lol thanks! It’s only the beginning, bigger turbo is on the cards
Thank god it’s not a diesel although it would be like every other tuned Seat Ibiza here in Portugal. A car that just wants to get everyone sick because of the smoke from the exhaust
Haha! I have to agree that there is a couple of strong diesel in Portugal, well on YouTube. Even over here is a lot of smoking diesels since south Africa doesn’t have emissions laws on cars
Wish i had the money for mods, your car shines
Thanks, Im actually a poor oke and s still pay off repairs :) You will get there and will be worth the wait. I only use meguiars on my cars
