[midget]

Hi Everyone,

Just introducing myself and posting a couple of pics of my car
looking for the other rare Aussie SEAT owners out there.

Nice one. Love the color, I think it really suits it. What motor and transmission does it have? :wink:

Welcome to our community! Seats are a little under-represented here so it's good to have you aboard. I'm gradually working myself up to a Seat...Probably a Cordoba but I like the Toledo too. I'll dieselize whatever I get, of course :wink: Thesr's a nice looking Cordoba (same colour as yours, I think) on ebay for ~$4700.

Yeah thats true, I am quite dissapointed recently seeing the new SEAT's coming out overseas like the Leon Cupra R, I was originally intending on getting a Golf, but when I saw this one for $6,000 with only 79,000 kms, After test driving it I could'nt not put an offer in :P

so a few minor mods later and shes picking up better and better, next step is lowering and getting tuned by a local vw specialist :lol:

Update your location info mate. Nice to have you onboard the good ship watercooled!

I`m a Seat Fan, I have two Ibizas at the moment, one of which has a VR6 engine!

[midget]

Does anyone have any suggestions as to lowering/stiffened springs combination i.e what brands, ride height etc as im noobish to this

Nice Toledo midget :)

[CORDY_SXE]

Nice ride midget!! Would have to be one of the best kept Toledos I've seen!!

I think I've only ever seen 3 other Toledos on the road here in SA and none of them looked as good as yours does mate.

Good job!!

a very clean toledo, you don't see them on the road...in melb all i see are a few cordoba's or ibiza's but yet to see a toledo, looks immac! :lol:

Toledo is a hatchback and Cordoba is a sedan. Look between the back door and the wheel arch, Tolly has a plastic panel, cordy does not.

hey midge.. where did this end up?My Bank Manager, who I went to ask about getting a new loan to get a passat, asked me what i was going to do with the tolly, then offered to buy it right then and there. j:

Did I miss something?? Midget, did you get rid of the Toledo and now have a Passat?? :?

[Rednut]

i would definately say "it was an upgrade to the passat" much more volkswagen than the toledo.. especially with teh VW badge on the front and probably the back too :)

no offense seat people (i may be at one with you soon)
