hey guys
i bought my saxo 1.5D last monday just as a runarbound for the winter
she has a few things wrong with her but she seem alright considering how little i paid for it
to be honest i take a particular disliking to most things french but the saxophone seems to be changing my mind a wee bit
the reason why i bought it was i needed a winter runaround whilst my other car is off the road for some work, an E36 318iS

here is a pic or 3
