Winter wheels on
 
Not the cleanest it's ever been, but thought id show you the car with the winter wheels on. They need a refurb to be fair, but i've not got round to it and i cant bare to leave the Wolfrace on in this cack weather.







Also hit 80,000 miles other day. Had 52,000 when i bought it in December, nearly two year ago:


Comments if you like.

CHIP 13th September 2008 16:45

OK, not anything really changed on the car. But I had bit of a cleaning session & thought id show you all. Sorry about afew fingers creeping in the corner... not used to my new phone lol.

Under the bonnet:




Manifold... yum:


Cage:


Interior (to have OMP recliners at end of year):


Backend (let lights dry out today & resealed them as theyd misted up... most of its out, just got to give it abit longer):




And a side-ish one:



C&C welcome.

Lowered to the stops on the back and 60mm front (coilovers at beginning of next year to get lower) and no it dosent rub lol

Some little c**t kicked a ball at my passenger door other day n put a dint in it. Got dint man coming on Monday to sort it and afew others

saxoaee 17th September 2008 20:43

car looks better on the VTR rims mate love the colour also

CHIP 17th September 2008 23:34

The VTR rims need a refurb to be fair, just not had time. Although iv been offered some 1.9gti rims. Considering them & painting them black, just cash though. Wolfrace will always be my favourite though lol.

raiya 18th September 2008 11:54

agreed chip, the vtr alloys look awesome on
but reckon nimrods would look awesome too in black

CHIP 9th October 2008 18:33

Only a small update. Painted the sunroof handle and surround satin black to match the 106 windscreen pillars i've fitted. Also a couple of pics of the car at work. Comments?








jamiemol 9th October 2008 19:25

stunning get the fogs smoked and it will be perfect imo!:y:

saxomark 9th October 2008 19:47

Looks very very nice mate, i love the gloss black bump strips they look brillaint in every picture, and deffently smoke the fogs it will finish it off nicely, looks nice and subtle mate, keep the good work up

Mark

jay26 9th October 2008 19:52

CHIP 10th October 2008 08:23

Jonalong 10th October 2008 09:33

Jonalong 10th October 2008 10:52

Geeeez thats shiny! What do you use to clean it mate? Loving the height, mines nearly as low as that but not quite lol, do you have trouble with the exhaust scraping on dodgy country roads? Keep this shit up mate.

RAL 10th October 2008 11:00

Turtle Wax Triple Wax to wash it, then Meguiars Quick Detailer stuff normally or AutoGlymn Deep Resin Shine for shows etc. The Meguiars stuff is plenty good enough though to be fair from day to day.

Cheers peeps

Andy_89_VTR 10th October 2008 15:16

yeah mate, but it does make it look a lot different and origonal, which is what its all about.

Painted eh??? may have to consider this then.

No but the front bumper hits the floor on country roads/virtually anywhere lol. To be fair i can imagine alot of people would hate the ride with it being so low. But me & my mates tend to have a saying 'if it dont scrape on the humps, it aint low enough' lol.

lol good man. Country roads around my way must be worse than yours then lol, although I re mounted the exhaust recently so is all good.

CHIP 12th October 2008 11:28

I've deliberetly mounted the exhaust so that it's as high as possible as to not cause too much damage. But it still scrapes lol.
Infact last night went to a party and on entering the car park everyone was outside & as i come round the corner the exhaust popped it's tits off & then the front bumper scraped on floor (ground was virtually flat lol) & everyone just turned round haha. Apparently it was the best entrance anyway :D

Saxo_theedge 12th October 2008 11:30

Looks great. Loving the stance :y:

Sneakydevil89 12th October 2008 11:36

your car looks really nice mate, love the little touches like the sunroof part painted black.

I've so far done that black & got the black 106 windscreen pillars out of a scrapper. I want to do all the other pillars black too.
But does anyone know how im meant to get a black roof lining? Lol

5AMBO 12th October 2008 13:19

love the car mate. always liked that colour and seems you done all the right things in my opinion. keep up the good work. only thing id change is the wheels, something a bit more class than the vtr wheels just to finish the car off

CHIP 12th October 2008 13:26

Like i say i've got the Wolfrace Octanes for summer. VTR wheels suit Saxo's so well IMO though for winter wheels. Although mabye eventually i'll get something with abit more dish. But for now my main focus is getting the interior done & getting the front lower. Then the engine modified in some way (not sure which way to go yet)
