Updated ^^

good excuse to upgrade imo ;)

Looks good. Best colour. :y:

It's same as mine! Similar sort of plans too...

Bet that's a single plug engine though :( I'm jealous!

very nice.

Number plate is extremely similar to mine.

Ha my Dad keeps saying it's a 'Fucking Good Car' - Typical old man .. :L

couldnt of said better meself :hug:

Lol i can use that now..

I wouldn't change anything on it, looks very tidy !

Looks the bizz to me.........

Looks good mate.

What plans you got in mind??

Cheers for the positive feedback.

All on OP - But just pretty standard stuff tbh, mainly visuals cause VTS are quick enough and I don't particularly plan on tracking it so performance mods aren't really neccessary for the time being.

Update: Gloss Black Alloys
 

They were all like this pretty much all over;


Spent a long time getting them all back to a decent state;



And the final outcome (bit dusty already!);

Looks good mate, I've never been a fan of black wheels but if you like them then thats all that counts. (Y)

I hope your wheels didn't have too much curbing as the lips on these are a nightmare to fix, I did mine not so long ago and took me ages and I'm still not happy with how the lip has turned out.

Also 3" piper and supersprint is a good combo, thats what I'm running on my VTS right now.

Ah cheers mate, yeah each to their own. Personally I think it really finishes the car off, always had black wheels wouldn't have them any other way!
Yeah the lips are an absoloute bitch did the best I could but I think the previous owner must have enjoyed driving down the pavement or something cause the nearside front wheel was beyond belief haha!

Yeah I had the Supersprint pipe on my VTR, quite liked it but fancy a bigger backbox this time round so going for the Piper.

nice choice on wheel colour bud :y:

Preferred them in silver if I'm being honest...

Have you lacquered them at all? Might want a clear coat to stop them chipping quickly.

Yeaahhhh buddy.

Nahh not yet, due to the weather gunna give them a week to really go off, then lacquer them.

New headlights, foglights and sidelights went in today - Waiting on some LED sidelights so this isn't the finished thing but.

Difference between original and new;

I love wicked reds, so a bit jealous!

Looking good though, and that list looks good. Would rather smoke the headlights than get angels though.

Yeah I really cannot decide what to go for. :/

i love wicked red saxos, i WILL end up owning one.

wheels look good mate. i like angels but i think a nice set of color coded moretts would suit much better.:y:

Personally despise Morettes ha, but that's just me. Either smokes or Angels.

Update;

*LED Side/License/Interior lights went in this morning shall get some pics up tonight/tomorrow

*Got the Mintex pads and discs, just waiting on the other pair of discs, then shall all be fitted by the end of the week.

New brakes went on today. :)

Old;


Old compared to new;

very nice looking motor, v jelous :(. btw what it cost you to get your rims done??

Thanks man.

And err, like £15/£20 for some cans of paint and some sand paper... haha Did them myself.

Good job with the wheels!! looks smart, and love the colour of the saxo!
brakes were in need of a change haha

angel eyes all the way :)

what do you recon to them. people say they are crap and cant see anything, but mine are brilliant i dont use full beam really, 80watt bulbs do it fine :)

Cheers, hah yeah they got an advisory on the last MOT (before I had it) and they're renowened for not being very good so though an upgrade was pretty high up on the list.
I'm in two minds about the Angels now, swaying more toward Smokes.
Mine are like 100w hah, plus LED sidelights they're so bright. :D

Very smart vehicle. Love red MkII's with black VTS alloys; particularly as this one actually is a VTS. lol. Good luck - keep it up!

what are the brakes like much better ? supprised you didint go for some 307 0r 306gti6 callapers while you were there best colour of saxo by far ;) keep it up dude

Not actually driven it under pressure at all since fitting them but driving round my estate they seemed to be a vast improvement. I was thinking about but didn't quite seem necessary at the time, I may well upgrade the calipers at a later date but pads and disc shall suffice for now.
Ha yeah so I've been told, I am slowly falling for her though literally. Haha! :P

Cheers. :)

Been a week or so now and can definately say they improved brakeing. 306gti6 calipers have gone on the list of things to do though.

Other than that nothing has relly happened this month waiting for a cheque to come through from the thrid parties insurance from the accident to cover my excess so once I get that I'll shall get a couple other bits, probably backbox and pipe. Then towards the end of the month/start of next month when I get paid I shall be getting slammed on her arse. :)
But until then, clean clean clean. :D

Get some pictures up of the car boyo :) i want to see it nice and shiny :)

Sorry bud, no pics yet. Might take some after this weeks clean. :D

Update + Pic Heavy
Right, so first time I've acutally uploaded pictures of the car since day one, this was right after a good wash last week onyl just got the pics up mind. Pretty happy with how everything has gone so far just tight for money so gunna be a long build at the minute.
Pay day tomorrow so happy days going to order Supersprint Catback Pipe and Piper 3" Backbox.
And here's what you's really wanna see, C&C always welcome. Enjoy;

Looks lovely all cleaned up mate. Smoked front lights and lowered and that would look spot on, just not sure about the tints though...

The old brakes looked well and truly fooked!

In need of some tyre gel/dressing :P

Looks good. I had the Supersprint to Piper before and sounded just right for me

I love the look of this car and you have a good few updates. I love what you have done with the Alloys, they look the same as mine just in mint condish lol, thinking about making mine white but your making me want to keep black.
Looks a tidy wee car and look forward to more updates.

Yeah thanks, I really cannot decide between smokes or angels think I'm gunna go with Angels mind to keep subtle circular mods i.e angels and piper box.
Tints were on the car when I got it, personally I really like them and so does everyone that get's in the back. ;) Each to their own though.

Haha ya think? Only downside to black alloys is how shit they make the tyres look. Yeah had the full Kam/Supersprint system on my VTR just fancy something a bit bigger and louder this time. Can you compare??

Thanks man, ha yeah they're not finished still need another coat and laquer but pretty happy with how it's looking at the moment. I am also tempted by white but then I change my mind about mods more than a women changes shoes so.
Thanks, yeah Exhaust got ordered this morning so depending on how fast Royal Mail get their act together may well have it up by the end of the week, might try get a vid up in all. :)
