hi im gem and ive just joined this forum, its great, i own a white mk1 vtr on a "r" plate, i realy like the car and have done a few things to it like putting lexus style rear lights and 4 inch outward rolled s/s back box, airfliter ,a few neons, purple neons in the front grill, might get it lowered a bit soon too, i do have a small problem with it though.....it tends to misfire when i pull away??? ive had ecu checked and new plugs and put on a computer but no probs found, ive tried lots to sort it but cant stop it, maybe airflow meter thing?? can anyone help me ???

Welcome to Sax-p Gem :y:
Hope you enjoy it on the site and im sure someone in the designated engine section (i see you've already posted there) can give you some pointers for the misfire problem - Ryan is a good source of info so hopefully he'll pick up on it.
Pretty good start on the car, white is an amazing colour to have when clean and gleaming, not too many white ones about either.
Dont take any comments to heart such as ones about badges etc. Its all about personal preference, you'll soon get to see what the so called 'in trends' are etc though, it is nice to see the odd thing different.
Plenty of cars to look at in the photos section, lots of good ideas about currently
The nice subtle approach is going strong currently.
What plans have you got in future months for the Saxo?

Hi and welcome
I've got a white 'r' plate vtr too lol I've got lexus lights because they were on the car when i bought it. I'm gonna change them soon because i just don't like them. A lot of people will tell you to get rid of them but if you like them then keep them. After all it is your car so do what makes you happy :y:

I might be able to take a look at your engine problem some time if you want, know a thing or two about saxos ;)
Wasn't that for sale at the place opposite the skoda garage in high brooms a while back? looked very nice but a bit overpriced.
Edit: I'm from between tunbridge wells and crowborough.

not many people seem to be a fan of lexus lights on here.
I think that look gd mate, much better than having the stock ones on.
