Thanks not everyone's cup of tea but the car leaves a lasting impression just can't seem to commit to getting rid always come back to it and maintain/improve the next area while still keeping it user friendly and reliable for the daily grind

I've got 15x7" team dynamic 1.2s on the ignis. Very planted on the road

Treated the car to a cusco upper brace and a 5zigen stainless imported exhaust rear section. Pictures when everything turns up.
Should stiffen it up and give a louder bark

Few parts have turned up. Depending on how busy we are at work next week. May have to wait until after new year to fit them.


Restocked up on cleaning stuff but it's too cold to be messing washing cars. Not been washed now for probably couple of months



Got lots of little niggly jobs to do mainly to the exterior to tidy it up and make it a little different. Tidy up a couple of rough areas.

The only mechanical issue I've got left now is a heated 02 circuit sensor fault. Brings eml on every cold start. I've got two universal sensors to wire in and use existing plugs. Two reasons I've gone universal 1. O. E replacements are over £100 each 2. I'm planning decat manifold early next year and they'll get sooted up pretty quickly

While the world is busy scuttling around getting ready for tomorrow. I fitted my strut brace. The exhaust will have to wait till new year as it doesn't look like a straight fit. I don't want to bodge it on as it'll probably be joined by a custom stainless centre and a stainless decat manifold in the new year. Desperately need to wash the car it's absolutely filthy. Get it done before I'm back in work weather permitting

Well it's gone. The car was running as good as it was ever going to. I contacted a few people who had asked to be kept updated with progression/possible sale in future. I priced it strongly with no room for negotiation as I wasn't 100% on selling. Buyer came from Carlisle and was over the moon with it.

THE END!

It settled down to between 300-320 in the colder months. Admittedly I don't drive my cars hard. Mine got 60 mile a day at 70mph with a little foot down here and there.

When I was buying mine alot of owners were commenting on a range of about 250 miles or so. Your about average. For comparison I've switched to a diesel fabia vrs now and never get below 600 from a tank. I'm quite a sedate driver these days

Also chuck a tank of tesco 99 or v power in. Mine seemed to get more miles per fill.

I'd love something petrol turbo but nudging 500 miles aweek at the minute. I take it the s max is family wagon and iggy is a bit of fun?

Thanks short trips wont be helping with your mileage from a tank. My commute was 90% motorway.

They look best filthy. I wanted a blue one standard with no fogs, ended up buying a silver with fogs, aftermarket wheels and coilovers.

If your not already get yourself over to the suzuki ignis sport Facebook page loads of helpful people on there and always a few being broken for bits

Any sport bumper has the marking on the back of it of where to remove so the fogs can be fitted. Bezels and fogs are regularly available second hand on the forums and ebay. The switch, relay and wiring can be found in breakers. However they go for silly money as everything is discontinued now.

I had a pair of front fogs with damaged bezels and they sold for £200

GROUP BUY FOR WHITELINE REAR ANTI ROLL BARS IS A GO.

I appreciate not everyone is on Facebook so I'm posting this in here. I've had his in the pipeline until I sold up. Scott has taken over and seen it over the line. 25 kits will be made. I'm even buying one as it's highly unlikely this will be happening again. Took a lot of time and negotiating to see this through.

Please email me at ste372@hotmail.co.uk and I can put you in contact with Scott millar who is running it. Or if your on Facebook contact him directly.

Thanks ste
