very curious

[woodsy]

just wondering why people decided to choose the saxo they have or had (if recently sold)

mine is

mk1 vts s reg silver
auntie needed a bigger "family car" so took the opportunity and got it

[GregseaVTR]

Loved the shape and ideal first car, and So many options on how to moddify

was going off the sax but just fitted a bigbore induction kit, and i like it againsmileys/smiley9.gif

[Rosco906]

always said if i was to have asaxo it would be the vts, one came up and i bought it!

[Barry123]

...Because i was on crack.

If i had the oppotunity to go back in time i would have bought a 3-door 1.5D and began on a modding adventure.
Still, at least the lack of anything decent for 5-door saxo means i can save a bit of cash.

had a mk2 astra, went looking for a new car, was unsure what i wanted then saw my vts....

a mate had a 1 litre saxo and i liked that so i bought the vts.... smileys/smiley4.gif

i wanted a new car, my corsa sri wasnt cutting it so i looked round.

couldnt get a decent insurance quote for a vts and being a student didnt help matters but when i found my vtr it was love at first sight. and once i drove it i wasnt going to leave the dealer without it smileys/smiley17.gif i love saxos smileys/smiley16.gif

[pug_boe]

I bought mine because my sister wanted it so to piss her off i got it instead..that was 3 years ago - it was sold 2 weeks ago and now i have a pug 306 DTurbo (1.9)- i sold it because it was a piece of shit

My dads cousin dabbles in the car sales, he had this sitting on his drive & offered it to my dad for dirt cheap money.

I told my dad to get it as it was a bargain.

The biggest mistake was keeping it, i could have spent about £50 at the scrappers & made an easy £500 on it.

[Bennett]

i have always quite liked saxos but never really thought off gettin one but when i took mine for a test drive that was it.....SOLD i love it now and would only ever uprade to a newer faster model of saxo

[Delboy75]

well bit of a long story but here goes,

I Was originaly looking for a 3 series beemer but couldn't find one i liked.
I saw the saxo on the net whilst i was searching, went to view it and loved the shape,colour and the interior.
It drove well and had plenty of torque smileys/smiley17.gif
I did then Consider getting a VTS after test driving the vtr but the insurance quote was a lot more.

I Went back to the seller and managed to knock him down from £3200 to £2900 for cash.
I had to wait till the monday to get the cash out of the bank but when i rang him to arrange a time he'd gone away for the week smileys/smiley7.gif

Pissed off i said i was still interested in the car but only for £2700!, i lied and told him i'd seen another i really liked for £2750. He reluctantly agreed much to my amazement.

The seller was actually about 55, he had bought it as he liked the look but decided to get rid after only 3 months cus he wanted a cheap run around for work (he's a mechanic)
Amazingly when i went to pick up the car i got my mrs to drive me in my old beat up escort that i was gonna scrap after the mot ran out (in about a month).

The seller then told me he was after an escort & offered me £200!
So i ended up paying £2500 plus my old banger.
Not bad i thought for a mint x reg vtr with full service history.

[nixy9]

i loved the look of a VTS but couldnt afford the insurance so decided on a Furio, and saw this colour and loved it smileys/smiley4.gif

[mike_obuk]

i wanted a fairly quick car that looked alrite for not a lot of cash.

[saxx]

went car shoppin for my mum liked the colour and drive so bought it!

[Sax1lora]

daddy bought it as a surpise as my puggy was fucked! smileys/smiley17.gif

[Dan]

Well my current car was nackered and wanted something a little quicker. Went and had a look at the saxo and loved it. Never regreted getting it. smileys/smiley4.gif

[SteVTR]

was looking for a first car was too skint to buy and insure most of the cars i wanted couldnt find a decent nova gsi (to start cleaning up for a c20xe conversion) there were no pugs i liked i hate corsas n i saw this vtr sat for sale so i took it out for a quick drive then bought it n stuck a vts engine in it smileys/smiley4.gif

[vtskid]

i was sick of getting trounced by everything in my 1.2 punto so decided i needed something to give people some stick back and the vts just seemed right. best decision ever! handles great goes like stink and was a good price ..... the only way now is up .... after the supercharger that is.....! smileys/smiley20.gifsmileys/fcuk.gif

[liamk15]

I wasnt really looking for a certain type of car.I just went looking around a few garages for the most cheapest car decent car I could mod smileys/smiley20.gif
