Well as it happens to be, I've apparently neglected my own thread :oops:

So updates then... Well lets go back to last November, to be precise the 8th (Some now know what I'm going to tell from here). Twas a lovely day, and I had organised a Sax-p SE meet at Lakeside for the evening, so it seemed right to give the car a well earned clean inside and out.

I was very well pleased with the results and waited for the evening to come and I left for the meet.

BANG! I felt a bang from the back and the car spun! Luckily I was ok and so was the car to a certain extent.

Those that were there saw the extent of things that happened, but I just got on with things.

So the extent of the damage is a new tailgate, new bumper, new drivers door and a number plate. (Insurance wanted to write it off under financial terms - so I've done the work myself and taken the cost)

The last part (the drivers door) turned up this morning, after its taken me quite a while to find one thats not off a VT* model.

So that aside, what else has been happening with the car?

Well the upper strut brace is now on, going to take it off and re-spray it yellow again as it needs it, the VTS rear ARB is here (cheers Willsy) and i've still yet to fit the VTS front brakes (Cheers Karl). I'm awaiting arrival of a BLACK carpet for the inside, and i've still got to put another coat of laquer onto my centre console, heater covers and speaker covers before they go in.

I've also go a set of the Ultra rear lenses waiting to go on (putting them on once its back from spraying), then I'm going to get a set of black angel eyes for the front.

Lowering will be taking place, but i'm undecided as to what springs and shocks i'll use for the front (perhaps the SPAX Psx kit) and as to how far i'm going to go down by...

Before I put on the VTS callipers, i'll be spraying them yellow and getting some uprated disks and possibly pads to go with them.

As to what happens from there, is yet to be told :p

Good news at last! - The car has finally been booked in for spraying and bodywork! Its good to know the guys at the bodyshop as i'm having the tailgate, bumper and new door, sprayed and blended in plus body filling (where they cannot pull the dent out) and touchups to the paint all for £500 :fcuk:

Its booked in for a week on Tuesday - should be in for about 4 days. Finally!!!!

good progress thread but neds more fotos

indeed it does, I seem to have deserted my own progress thread! - but hey ho, I've got a decent camera and a few upcoming bits of work so photos will be on the increase :D

goood lol, well its a nice car mate keep it up.

Noddy, did you get her repaired alright?

yeah i did indeed - like i said in my last post, i've completely forgotten to update this thread.

Apart from a few paint chips here and there, I've got the car back to original state, no body dents at all now :)

I've got to sort out some photos and an updated to-do / done list :)

New things that have appeared on the car since i last updated then.

- Blue dials
- Changed the JBL 60.2 amp for a 4ch JBL amp and now have SPL Dynamics components in the rear. (have more than 2 people quite often in the car)
- Rear ARB now from crappy 1.1 to VTS spec - its made such a difference - cheers willsy :y:

nice spec mate! Fancy a boot install to go with that lot ;)

meh, its basic spec atm, a boot install is on the cards and i had seen yours. I like the sub box - a lot, but the floor and install I wouldnt need as Ive got the ICE and would have a plain floor on top....

Really smart saxo :)

flatarch ftw :p

A slight preview for now, it really REALLY needs a clean and a tidy up here and there before any more photos emerge ;)

looks nice there, were did you get ECU cover from?

I got it off here funnily enough:)

Lil update, Magnex is on its way - catback system and a decat pipe as well. Also Citroen Sport Gearknob to go with quickshift thats also on its way :D

updates sound really good, need to get some more pics up. especially those dials, intersted in them.

I'll get some dials shots later/ tomorrow :) - If the bloody cold would go then i'd be able to wash the car (filth atm) then I can take some decent shots:D

Just wack the saxo in the car wash lol ?? :D > new pictures<

mines filthy too, but just dont have the time or money to put it through a car wash!

stick it through a car wash!?!?! I'd rather cut my nuts off tbh!!
