Well here goes first of all excuse the bad pics, will get some tomorrow as only got it earlier!! i was hunting round on the net for ages looking for saxo`s went and viewed on in petersfeild and it was s**t tbh lol put me off! then on ebay i saw a 2 tone vtr for sale with £1700 buy it now or make offer.. so i thought id be cheaky lol! £1100 i offered, and added my phone number on it. 30 minutes later i get a text, and it says come with £1150 and you can have it!! Its a Y Reg vtr 2 tone with Vts wheels badges. 68k miles and some service history!....

future mods:
Colour Code wheels with bottom half
Smoked Rear lights/angel eye headlights
Lower 60mm all round
show cage
window tints
straight through
k&n induction
port and polished
and maybe chip or remap!

sorry for bad pics lol!

I know it has 16v badges but the door badges look like VTS badges.
Have you bought a VTS thinking it was a VTR?
Would be a nice surprize.

The wheels would of looked mint if they match the lower half, well they look good now mate, but i'd spray them the same colour as the lower. I do like two tones.

timmythechef
24th August 2010, 17:42

diidsax
24th August 2010, 17:44

Nice car mate, only one thing I would recommend BUCKETS. Harnesses look lame in standard interior.

Also 10j and 9j rims :panic: That would be some epic dish man.

diidsax
25th August 2010, 11:33
i went to look at some 10j compomotives today, and he said yeah they are complete wheels, yet i get there to find that the front is just rims! with out the centers... :( did have buckets, but i sold them to a mate, next thing on my list after new wheels :)

Like them banded steels, set off the car. You getting them sprayed? Id say black centres and then gloss black bump strips :y:

Alexvtrmk1
10th November 2010, 20:43
this is nice apart from the exhaust and the front bumper not sitting flush. wheels make it sit nice. good stuff :y:

diidsax
11th November 2010, 15:57
got a new exhaust to go on it, and then the front bumper is being smoothed, and re fitted! so should look goos :)

Lewis
11th November 2010, 16:30
Looks pretty good but please get rid of the gash exhaust, put the original grille back on and paint the steels black or grey :D

Otherwise rock on :)

That looks the nutts!! I have a thing for banded steelies.. Never seen a sax with them before.. Would love a set for mine.

Mochachino
13th November 2010, 22:36
Looks rather good apart from the wheels being blue and the exhaust falling off.

blackvtrt
14th November 2010, 23:26
Looks good, things id do/change if it was my car are: Refit align front to sort bumper gap, change the backbox or re hang it so it sits higher & trim a little more out the rear bumper so it fits in the recess & lower the front more.
What size are the wheels 14's? They 108 pcd or u using adaptors? They spaced out at all? What width are they and what tyres are fitted? look a nice stance.

benjo91
14th November 2010, 23:37
i thought banded steelies were illegal??? i wanted a set for mine but didnt fancy gettin pulled all the time

diidsax
18th November 2010, 17:50
yeah blackvtrt, they are 14"s, 108 PCD 8.5J on Rear and 8J on the front, running 25mm spacers on the back and 10 on the front, need to put my 25s on the front... used to belong to CHRISVTR123, who had the possi blue Euro saxo.
