Help find my old saxo !!! (ex show car)

[ajwells86]

Hi everyone, i use to be a member years ago on here until i sold my saxo then i lost interest in the car scene a bit.

Now im back with new plans for my motors :P

Would love to see if the saxo is still on the scene and hope you guys can help track it down as it might well be a members car on here or have seen any pics of it about on the forum...

Why not do the database checks through DVLA etc?

Might be scrapped now.

[ajwells86]

looks like allot of money been spent on that! the spoilers crazzy!!

[Pieface]

Rofl at the spoiler, I bet that made handling a lot worse tbh.

[Peter_D]

Absolute abortion

[ajwells86]

was built 6 years ago got rid of it 3 years ago....

I did have my regrets on that spoiler, looked alot nicer without but never bothered to change it....

[Prickle]

Shame you dont see many Saxo's like that anymore :fcuk:

[Slammed_Posi_Vtr]

Lets not start the whole "fuck myne bruv dat looks sh1t lyk" argument again.

The car looks pretty cool and i bet it looked pretty fucking special when it was done up like that and people drooled over it at shows.



Best idea is to check the dvla database as said matey, see if its still on the road.

[Paul]

Ajwells86, alot of people on here don't understand 'themes' and 'scenes' and how they change over time. So expect abit of abuse off a bunch of 17 year olds with saxo trackcars (no back seats).

Although even 6 years ago that spoiler would of still been abit gay ;)

Looks like alot of moneys gone into that, and it looks like its been done the proper way (not with a rattlecan and bluetac).

I haven't seen it before on here unfortunately.

6 years ago that was an awesome car.....how times change.

[robert_waite]

Looks like it is off the road at the moment or someone has not got any tax on it! It probably killed the 1.1 engine moving all the fibreglass about ;)

[ajwells86]

lol... white i kinda never changed the colour over with the dvla, and i put a decent engine in it in the end, had a vtr engine:
custom made 4 branch manidfold
straight through exhausts
de-cat
piper cams
new remapped ecu
uprated pistons
etc.....

cant remember exact spec off top of my head.....

[robert_waite]

And you never declared any of it then? So your insurance would not have covered any of the money you spent doing it up?

[jinx]

sorry fella, dont seem to be insured.

[Slammed_Posi_Vtr]

And you never declared any of it then? So your insurance would not have covered any of the money you spent doing it up?

OMG Its the insurance police!

[sarah000]

always makes me laugh that this kinda car was cool 6 yrs ago! lol

Even had a glitter flick in it.... Awesome :zainy:

[robert_waite]

OMG Its the insurance police!

I just dont understand why you would spend a few grand doing that and then not bother insuring it. Sad I know, but sensible :homme: I am an old git so my insurance is cheap :p

[Ryan]

remeber the car, the paint was clever the jap kit on saxo look never did look good. Some kits flowed with saxos though.

Although most of the im building a track car thats never going on track with bright wheels bright cage and supersprint poopipe brigade wont ever understand ;)

Multiple camshafts aye? :cool:

[Ryan]

Multiple camshafts aye? :cool:

theres more than 1 cam lobe on an 8v camshaft ;)

[Peter_D]

But only one camshaft?

[Ryan]

But only one camshaft?

but still more than one cam lobe. A cam is a single entity, 'cams' is a number of cams ie a group of them.

If you want to be pedantic I can to ;)

[Slammed_Posi_Vtr]

At the end of the first round....

Ryan: 1

slut :zainy:

[Peter_D]

"Piper Cams have been designing and manufacturing performance camshafts and exhausts since the late 1960’s."

So the actual product he is referring to is the "camshaft" as a whole.

'Piper Cams' is a brand name, the "camshaft" is their product, which he is referring to.

So he didn't buy a 'piper cams', he bought a Piper camshaft.

1-1

Dont try and redeem yourself now matey.

Nobody really cares whether he should have added that 's' or not

[Peter_D]

I'm pernickety :panic:

[ajwells86]

[Slammed_Posi_Vtr]

[tom130691]

hpi check gives address of owner iirc ;)

[Matty_Mills]

How much was spent on that?!

Not seen a car that has had that much attention for a looooong time

Not my cuppa t, but each to their own.

Harsh.

:sad:

[ajwells86]

wanna see what it looks like now, how much it has changed.... put alot of time, money and effort into that car and just curious about how it looks after a few years !!

[Caino]

did you take it to any shows or anything ? probably a daft question

[NICK2506]

obviously its not fashionable these days but i bet back in the day in the early noughties this was insane!

[ajwells86]

still hunting the net for it.... onto bigger better things now but still wanna see what its like these days !!

Seriously any help on finding it would be much appreciated..

Thanks guys.
