Posi blue furio
 

Well this is my first car, ive got my test in 6 days, failed first time but should hopefully pass this time.

This is it the day i bought it



It cost me £1100 with 47000miles on the clock, 1 owner etc. do the vtr alloys come standard on this or is it wheel trims and steels?



Since i bought the car ive had to fit a new coil pack and spark plugs. cheers france!

Ive not really started to modify in any way yet, just bought new plates for it, new shortened aerial, new head unit and fitted the saxp stickers :y:

I cleaned it, polished it, put some back to black stuff on the bump strip and put on the new plates



fitted my saxp stickers



Future plans are:
Lower it about 40mm
Respray the wheels either black or white?
put smoked jewels on the back
colour code the front lights
smoke side repeaters
de-wiper
fit a sub and amp
get all the badges either black or white depending on the wheels
and remove the furio stickers :P

please comment and/or advise anything else that would look good, i just like subtle mods nothing to crazy

cheers jamie

Forgot to say im changing the awful painted exhaust too lol

i like it man seens like a bargin :y: WELCOME

ye steelies and hub caps or the furio alloys where the manufactures options. The Vtr wheels and the wing mirror have been fitted.
looks like a real bargain at £1100

good lookin furio mate sounds like a steal at that price wit that milage i bought mine 2 yrs ago wit 50k on the clock for 3500

that is a great price mine has 65k 1owner for £1995!

Smart motor mate. Looks mint! Looks like a good buy

Had a productive day today :)

First i removed the furio badges

then i t-cutted all the badges on the back





then i de-wipered it and my friend attacked my car with the alpine sticker! lol



then i treated it to a wash, wax, back to black on the bumpers.

i bought a dvd player for the car today, and the lowering springs are getting ordered this week :)

not fan of the apline sticker but i like the blue saxos glad you t-cutted your badges and vtr alloys look cool. good choice in taking off the furio badge as well. mk1 lights or smoked rear jewels look gorgeous on blue saxos do it :)

yeah im not much of a fan either tbh! my mate did it lol

im thinking of just smoking the standard lights?

Looks spot on mate, absolute bargain too! I reckon a nice set of multispokes or VTS rims would go well with the car. Whether you go for smoked lights depends on what rims you get imo.

Personally I think posi blue saxos look best with std front and rear lights and some decent rimmage on in silver

im thinking of painting the wheels in either black or anthracite and smoking my lights this weekend

got a dvd player to fit too

Looks like a real bargin pal, when doin this prog thread ALWAYS do what you wana do!!! lol but the alpine vinal is rather large lol

looks good mate. some good plans theyre as well. smoked jewels on a posi sax looks the nuts.

cheers guys

il update when ive done some more stuff

Thought id have a nose seein as you commented :)

First thing is bargain mate, i paid 2000 for 03 and 75k
and least you have VTR alloys than steelies,
Car looks tidy mate, all of your plans sound good :)

check back on mine when i get the pics up and il be back here checkin your progress,,

look cool mate, i got my posi blue furio for £1300 with 47k on it.
and i got rid of the furio badges straight away haha! soon as it hit my driveway lol

You smoked your lights yet? Looking forward to seeing it done :)
Doing mine on Friday ;)

how did u t-cut the badges black ?

Whats the best way to remove the Furio stickers?

grab some t-cut and wipe in on the wadges untill the silver paint rubs off i used rubbing compound which is corser than t cut but basically the same thing and i used a brillo pad which helkped getting the silver off just becareful u dont slip and rub your brilo pad on your paint work lol it was taking me ages with just a normal cloth tho

anyway lovely motor mate good price as well i paid £750 for my mk1 vtr but obv yours is newer and a wkd colour

Carefully peel um off by hand. then wash off any glue left on the pait with abit of parafin or petrol then they will be gone for ever!! ahaha (well unless u can get um off it one piece n for some bizare reason want to put them back on haha!!)

Job Done :y:

looks smart...good price too... vtr alloys with it aswell...lucky...i have steelies and hubs... nice car mate

heat them with a hairdryer then peel them off

today i painted the standard exhaust black cos it was rusted and someonehad tried to paint it silver

ive also smoked the side repeaters and painted the front chevrons black

il get pics up as soon as i can

no major progress lately

exhaust fell off last night because the clamp had rusted off so i fixed that today.

getting the wheels rebalanced tomorow

might be buying a mauritious blue w reg vtr for £100 :)

Failed the mot today :(

but it was only one tyre and the number plate light, both are geting fixed he morn :)

Not really wrote on this for a while

fitted the show cage, it was white when i bought it, so i de-slatted my grill and painted the chevrons white and the rear badges
