gaz4399
31st August 2008, 13:05
the car was 2400, which i thought was ok, but i had to change the whole back axle as the bearings were gone soo bad it ruined the beam, it also need diska and pads all around and four new tires, but im still pleased i bought it definately no regrets

sorry for the misunderstanding, i fitted a reconditioned box myself but did not rebuild it myself as that was left to the pros. the box cost me around 260quid plus vat and it drives better than any other saxo box that i have been in:y:

20th April 2010, 17:06
Car looks stunning dude. I agree with the mark 1 rear light's, they would suit the car a lot :y:
IMO the only thing that lets the car down are the brakes, The wheels look so smooth and clean, though the discs are looking dated. It's just somthing small but easily done and would make it look 100x better IMO :y:

cheers
i have an intake fitted during the summer in the hotter weather so cold air can get in, however in the winter i took it off and found that it felt more responsive (the noise went up too:y:) as there is cold air in the atmosphere
in the summer i will most likely be putting the intake back on
there was a thread on here somewhere that had a vts with a bmc fitted and rolling road figure with the intake on and off, same car on the same day btw, and it actually produced a little more power without the intake. however the large fans blowing the front of the car during the rolling road at the venue may have had an impact.

car broke down yesterday:n:
i was coming off a very steep driveway and it cut out and then proceeed to cut out about 30times. so i took the fuel filter off in the rain and it had disintegrated and has resistance inside when blowing through it, the thing was only 4months old!!!!.
anyways i managed to get one which was quite difficult as i was at uni and dont know where and motorfactors are tbh, fitted a new one in the rain again on the road side again and now its fine

cheers mate, yeah ive had the vts for well over two years now and with me being a student etc i cant afford to run the vts, it is a very well looked after car and the person who ends up with it will enjoy it.
my next car is the mini in my sig that ive been restoring for the past three months, its almost done now:y:

I have VTS wheels for sale currently but no tires, I wouldn't be fussed if these didn't come with them either, your just too far unfortunately (over 3 hrs away) don't see anyway around it either, shame really.
Vts rims are bellow anyway;
