Shame about breaking the saxo. Was a nice motor.

I have a seat ibiza pd130 currently running 190bhp until i strap my new turbo down.

Totally different feel to the saxo but with lots of torque they are ace.

Ste

i would get cambelt done now, 108k pushing your luck abit, nice car though

They Look Nice With Some Work Put Into Them!

Awesome! Welcome to the dark side :p

Really nice engines aren't they?
You got the 115 or 130? Both remap to stupid bhp ;)
VAG build quality too :D They put torx screws where the french could never imagine :D

Talk about bumping a old thread LOL!

It had to be done :D

I want to see a build thread now!

unfortunately, its only 100bhp
BUT i dont know how this can be, my brother has a 1.9 GT TDi Golf and it keeps up with that, but still.

Im not doing anything with it i dont think!

BUT...i have been toying with the idea of once iv moved into my new place getting a VTS and going to town on it :P

yay or nay? lol

Nah diesels the way forward I think. Get good power and still enjoy the MPG! sometimes I wish i bought another tdi instead of a petrol car lol

Yeh i'd love to buy an old mk1 vts and just make a track toy out of it one day. Still cant afford the insurance on one though!

The tdi engines are pretty amazing... like the newer ones have the same bhp figures as the older engines (like mine) but have much higher torque figures. Like yours will have more torque than mine.
I still dont understand them... when i think my car has only slight less torque than my dads impreza... but mine takes twice the time to get to 60 :p

Has this marked the end of your messing with cars then? :(

yeah, its nice to have a really torqueee car lol

Yeah it probably has. For now anyway. I do alot of motorway driving and i cant be without a car for more than a day or 2 if im lucky.
Jobs going well, so if the money stays good maybe i might delve back into it! Iv still got a house full of Saxo parts haha :P

Yeh me too! Took a carfull to the tip the other day... Still got a few engines lying about though :p

Good you've got a proper job going on.... i'm still on the pizza delivery :p
Diesel is the future for delivery drivers... making so much more money :D

haha, technically, im doing the same as you, still in the pizza delivery business at Domino's...

..only im the manager now :D

pays considerably better haha

haha few engines lying about lol :P

just read both of the threads i would have given the badger a good home :( (the car not the dead one lol) but they both looked good all the effort gone into the badger was amazing n lippy looks as if hes a great person to know well done mate n i like the ibiza
