  • pg 5 #93 better pictures
  • pg 8 #153 the before and the build up pictures
  • pg 8 #155 engines out
  • pg11 #212 hot pink engine bay

now before pics, i want to say a MASSIVE thankyou to my boyfriend, benkelsall on here. He started on the car 4 weeks ago as a surprise for me for FCS as hes been storing it at his work for me for the last few months. he couldnt keep it from me though :p lol.
bens done all of this himself, absolutely everything, and spent his lunch breaks doing it and we were sometimes there till 11 at night doing this, and then gave me his beautiful interior! so really, thankyou so much ben, the nicest thing anyone could do for me :oops:

now for pics, sorry guys, i have actually used ones people took at FCS as i have no camera, so credit to them! this is in noooo way finished, loads of things need doing which we didnt have time to do for fcs. few more bodywork ideas, and lastly the vtec idea, but please dont expect that for a long time! lol









so bodywork:
2008-2010 audi ibis white paintwork
smoothed aerial
deleted front and rear washer jets
delocked doors
smoothed mirrors but not dead flat which i didnt want
smoothed fogs
smoothed front grill
deslatted bumper
smoothed jacking point triangles
debadged boot
removed spoiler
removed rear towing eye

interior:
leather sparco milano front seats
gti rear bench
black gti pillars

tons more to come so watch this space! i have red borbet stickers on order but they didnt come intime for fcs sadly
i also had a strop about having borbet a's just before fcs lol as theyre getting very common and were meant to be for sale, but seeing them now, atm im happy and think they suit the car :) im sure ill change my mind soon though lol

SnaRe 14th June 2010 15:13

Ah so this was yours?! Beautiful car. I really liked it. Oh and you're a lot smaller than I had thought :P

Mathias 14th June 2010 15:15

Was wondering who's this was - awsome looking saxo - one of my favourites there to be honest, great work!!! ;)

Eskimo 14th June 2010 15:27

Looked wicked, seen it in person a few times now :)

Can't wait till it completely done! :)

Gary-VTR 14th June 2010 15:31

Not usually a fan of Borbets, but they work really well on this. Love it!

Have fun keeping it so sparkling in Winter. ;)

Predator_R32 14th June 2010 15:34

Car looked very nice although check strap on pasenger door needs doing ;)

Proffitt 14th June 2010 15:35

Looks great and fair play to ben :y:

White on White ftw ;)

MrHouston 14th June 2010 15:36

Looked really nice and subtle :y:

Lewis 14th June 2010 15:47

Tbh this was one of the worst saxo's on sax-p (no offence) now its probably one of the best. Its just so clean and tidy with being smoothed and all. Looked ace at FCS ;)

MikeYost 14th June 2010 16:01

Looks really good, perhaps do a few bits of red detail to match the badges?

de51_Hodgey 14th June 2010 16:05

bens done a good job from how it was :)

timmythechef 14th June 2010 16:10

Mint looking car nicole. =]

Bickerton 14th June 2010 16:19

What is it like mechanically wise now other than the cooling issue?

AlexB 14th June 2010 16:24

Only thing letting it down was bad prep and paint on all the seals

apart from that it didn't look bad

Hopcraft 14th June 2010 16:25

Any progress pictures..

Jo3fish 14th June 2010 16:30

Adz 14th June 2010 18:00

Wow, this was yours, last time i seen a pic of this it was looking rather bad and on back of a break down truck,

Adz

J222JRA 14th June 2010 19:11

No way Nicole you have a car i like.............dont break it.

rich112 14th June 2010 19:23

Didnt know this was yours at the show, looked very nice.
I dont normally like all white but the rims set it off good.

Paul_JC 14th June 2010 20:13

hmm.... shame some people have no imagination

daz_zz_er 14th June 2010 20:28

Looks amazingly clean :P

Winny 14th June 2010 20:32

Posted on cleaned, looks so fresh in white, love it! :D

Bound 14th June 2010 20:42

That looks amazing, I don't remember seeing it, but that's seriously nice. I'm impressed.

Also, was the chalkbord 106 there? If it wasn't I saw one exactly the same :p.

Bound 14th June 2010 20:44

The only thing I can think to change is perhaps something with the headlights, they do suit it atm mind, but maybe have a play with that, otherwise, that's fucking amazing looking (for a MK1 ;)).

scotthep 14th June 2010 21:47

Love everything about it !

Paul 14th June 2010 21:49
