Afternoon All,

Since I've been on here about 2 months now I thought it about time I'd post a thread for my 2000 Saxo VTR Mk II. Heres a couple of pics I took after buying it back in February 2011.

Had done 119,000 ish miles when I bought it and was over due a full service which was done straight away, has been running great ever since.

General plan is to tidy it up really before hopefully using it as track car in its after life. The passenger door panel is hanging off and bangs against the wing ever time you open it, got some tiger seal to sort it as the brackets for the clips have broken along with the rear wings both clips have broken and theres general tar and chips in places. Would like to get a second set of alloys and paint them black too.

Already replaced the rubbish rusty exhaust centre pipe and back box that were on it with a replica system although have to fit a new clamp to the back box which is due soon as the standard 'C' isn't big enough and its come loose once. Sounded like a Lancaster Bomber for a day lol.

Any wayz, hope you all like it and I'll post more soon.

Well have an update of sorts, managed to use the tigerseal to stick the door panel back in place, unfortunatly I didn't do the best of jobs and this is the result:-

Looks a mess lol.

When I took the panel off the door is badly rusted so I'm on the look out for a replacement door, will have to make do with the door until I can find a cheap replacement. Also noticed that the wing has been dented which caused the door banging in the first place (someone must have bumped into it with a towbar or something before I owned it), I have a spare one on the way to replace it. Hopefully when thats done it will look in better shape.
