I know its not a saxo, but just thought i'd post some pics up anyway.

Sold the saxo last year which is why i aint been to any meets for a while, really want a saxo again tho, someday soon maybe. Anyway i now have a 206 Roland Garros. Got a few mods to do, mainly keeping it simple tho going for a euroish look.

How it started...

Some colour coding, bumper mouldings & door mouldings. Also did the engine bay cover as you can see in the pic.

Some C*NTS decided to kick the wing mirrors off & some how smash the rear 1/4 with something.

I had some spare alloys in the garage & which came off a fiesta. With a few bits these would fit the 206 so i decided to spray them black & green. Also sprayed the badge for the front grill black.

The car needs lowering & the mirrors need replacing. But the wheels are on the car.

Looks quite good mate. But modifying a 5 door 206... Personally I would rather spend my money on something which looks quite good as standard. But anyhoo, this is different. I shall be keeping a close eye on this thread.

Nice job on those wheels btw mate

Its been a while since i've updated this but any way here goes.

I want to do something different with the paint but dont want it to look stupid & dont want to do a full re-spray. I was thinking of putting some cream on the outside but dont know where as i dont think it would look right. I thought about spraying the door mouldings & the bumper mouldings cream. or doing a little air brushing on the rear 1/4 panel when i repair it but i'm not sure if it would make it look stupid. As i dont want the car to stick out like a sore thumb. Want it to look kinda standardish & euro eventually.

A mate of mine jus did this photoshop & i quite like it. What do you think of the cream bump strips?

Front brake discs & pads on...

http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii139/joe_2187/206/206_002.jpg

Went to lower it with my mate but we ended up snaping 2 bolts so decided not to bother. Also put some chrome DTM's on for the moment. Will be colour coding them soon tho. Oh & some new wipers too.
http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii139/joe_2187/206/206_43.jpg
