Lamborghini Yellow Scandal - page 3, 4 and 5 The New Engine HUGE brakes and new staggerd wheels! 03/06/13
 

Since the age of probably 15 - 16, When my Interest in cars started i remember following the progress Willsys Saxo and im sure you will all agree, it was an inspiration to manny! And for the newer members some history of R661 JRP,

It started off life as a Open Scandal 1998 Special Edition Model



The reason its a special eddition ?



Like most cars between 2004 and 2006, Some good things where added ( full vt kit ) , some not so good...



French car show 2006, Heading in the right direction



Then :fcuk: A epic transformation












If this wasnt enough, It then Got even better























And then the final Push














Now this parts quite ironic, He came to buy this dashboard off me off 106 owners






From a humble flat arch rag top to a Stunning show standard Tastfully modifed car, To a epic Track spec... But for a few years now iv been confused as to what happend with this absolutly stunning car.. Not being a member on saxp, i hadnt realised the car had been broken for parts and the shell sold on..

Well I stumbled across this car for sale stumped up a , thought i recognised the numberplate and bought it!

How she stands today..

and its gutting whats happend....










None the less, its Still a great car, The lads who bought the shell off willsy have done a great job of converting the rear beam engine ecu and full wiring loom from a 2003 vtr , its running 306 gti brakes fully polly bushed solid engine mounts big 3 earthing kit and drives really nice to alot of newer saxos iv owned.

Few bad things i want to sort out Theres a issue with the dials and they keep turning off. The exhaust ( cherry bomb muff diver) is a bit LOUD. the bodywork could do with some attention, full detail and some paint, For peice of mind im going to rip the dash out and have a look at the wiring and replace the alarm ( also the sunroof hasnt been wired in )

But im hoping to shed a new transformation on this car! keep it living

:drink:

Hopefully you do a good job on it.

IMO since Willsy sold it on its been ruined to say the least.

Wrote all that out A couple of days ago, posted it up tonight,

Since then iv replaced the supersprint manifold with with piper 4 into 1 and a full cam racing system



Old vs new



Old "muff diver" back box



Jack under wheel as my bargain halfords huge jack jacks the hole car up about 3 foot front the front jacking point so to be on the safe side whacked the windey jack under the tyer lol




Then i thought id try on a piper 2.5" Outwordly rolled tip back box, wich i think i prefer

whos manny?

oj mate ;)

good to see its still alive and on the forums..not sure on the black grill mind

You'll do well to get it back to it's former glory!!

Was so close to buying this myself!

whos manny ? Confused lol *scrolls up * fair dos ahah i meant many,

As for the grill, iv got a set of morretes for it Just need to find the colour code and find a decent bodyshop that will get the colour match spot on!


Its going to take some work, But obviously im going to put my own touch on it transform it again, think im going to keep it 8v for now iv got a feeling that im going to keep this car a while, so maybe in due time, A16v turbo conversion some alterations to the bodywork may bring it back on form ?

But thats dreams lol...

Some parts i have waiting to go in when i get chance

Iv got a choice of wheels mounting up in my garage

speedline turnis
Pro race 1.2s
Vts wheels
oz ultraleggeras ( the same as it had on it )

Morretes

Yellow and black leather interior

Wind deflectors

Smoked jewel rear lights


Parts that will be going on in the next few weeks

Not long finished referbing a set of pro race 1.2s for my mango westy, so im going to give these a try to see what they look like



Iv got a set of coilovers ( no picture )

The seats out of my old mango vts



( wheels and splitter of my old furio )

One of the cleanest looking saxos iver ever seen! :D

good luck refittting an interior without a welder but fair play for taking on this shell

lot of work bur should end up nice looking at what youve put

Ah, good to see my seats still knocking about.

whats the splitter off lad?

I absolutely love your old furio!

cant wait to see what your going to do with this :y:

With your history of cars, I give this a month before it's either written, sold or simply ruined!

wise words from you jay correct me if im wrong but did you not shaft your saxo nose first into a wall or a lampost or somthing then bodge it back together? why do you always act like a bellend towards me never done you wrong.. never wrote a car off myself iv had one car crashed into the back of me and i leant amate w343nna and it wa destroyed. not by my self. my mango vts was a shed sold it and kept all the good parts other than that iv still first furio moth balled in my garage a mango mk2 on 43k.. and my westcoasts still on my drive again another tidy mango on low milage and tastfull mods wich is up for sale..

But if you wish me to sink to your leval and compare car history

I belive this was your first car correct me if im wrong i do appologise , Wich you overpaid £1290 for back in 2010, then sold on after you had crashed AND ruind for £650




( sticker bombed your rear view mirror and broke your screen )



Then you crashed into the back of a iceland van..

I take back my comment about crashing into a wall or lampost



Then since then youv bought a golf that everybodys seen, Wich isnt to bad the wheels are marmite but its your tast and the paintjob on them is impressive and look far better than silver,

But other than that you constantly act like a cock towards me and feel you have the right to tell me i "ruin" cars

So lets start..

My first car 2000 saxo furio paid £220 for it off machachinos mate nathan,



After the year i owned it it went through a few changes







Then i had it up for sale changed a few things to sell it on



Then driving to riply, Ironicaly to exchange keys on a swap for a fiesta zetec s i was crashed into the back of by a carless driver


So then absolutly skint and a destroyed car i had to go out and find a new car wich i stumbled across a mango on ebay wich needed work, but was cheap low milage taxed and motd, so i made one good car from the two


It may look "ruined" now, but thats another story as its a long term project, and judging from most the finished results of my cars, i dont doubt myself on finishing it.. But the mangos another story so now its sat in my garage awaiting time effort for the remaining bodywork and then respray


I garaged the mango and decided to use it as a project car because i bought a 106 gti didnt really do much to it as i was happy with how i bought it



Then i bought W343nna, Measly £400



Had a deadline of a month for fast show to get it looking how i had in mind

finished it the day before
Already posted the best picture i have of it but heres a entrance pic from fast show




I then kept this for a couple of months then karls mango came up for sale and i wanted it so i bought it and leant w343nna a freind and through no fault of his this happend


So the mango baught it like this..


Transformed it into this kept a few parts and sold it,



when i sold the vts i was going to buy a focus, But then a westy came along To keep me going for a few months, its now for sale


Since the photo iv changed the wing mirrors to standard

need to remove some of the old pics from the op's i think mate

very pic heavy start and theyre old pics..so distracts a bit

get a few choice pics and give short write up..then move it along to the current car and your plans :y:

Ill probably make a new thread when i start working on it bud and have links to willsys threads if he doesnt mind, Just nice to see how its changed over the years.

Whoaaaa, i never said any of them was your fault lol Jumping the gun much?

Ps: The Saxo was my 12th car...

How can you keep buying Saxos? The 106 and mango vts were tidy, why not keep one of those rather than selling to buy something worse? Upgrade when you change cars, buy something else!

Good luck with the newest addition in any case.

The black 106, weiner and the last mango are the only ones I like.

edit and obviously willsys.

Again, not a critisism but good looking getting someone to match the colour.

Saw this in flesh yesterday! Pictures don't do it justice! Still looks great in the flesh (apart from the wheels) they're the only thing letting the exterior down! Oh and the grill lol! Caught me in the act on te splitter ting eh Sam haha

lol scott steeling my ideas! didnt realise you were on here a
has your mate got a thread ?

Lol at this thread im never arguing with you.....

Will keep an eye on this good luck matey.

sorry iv probs come across as a but of a twat but this jays never really got a good word to say. its not the same when i used to see him in person used to be a alright lad now iv aired my point if mods want to delete that please do.

Haha I saw it and thought its gotta be done! All credit goes to you for the idea though ;) no he hasn't yet mate, he's getting it all done body work wise then start the thread I think, and yea man been on a while now

looks smart mate, if you can get it back to how it was then this will be a minter!! makes me want a saxo again!

get this old girl mint again, loved this car soooo much!

Glad to see that the Saxo lives on :-) considering I sold the shell to a lad that lives 5 minutes away from me I have never seen it out and about in the last 2 years.

Really hoping you get it back where it should be.

The paint code is 0069 Lamborghini Corona Yellow.

Ahh thank you!

Yeah hopefully mate! not had much time or effort to touch it just recently

Not much of a update few weeks back i fitted some pro race 1.2s in white, Not sure weather to go black tho ( iv got a set of black too )



Oh and some fuckers stole the GTI spoiler

jesus!

parked on the street or in the drive?

Got home from work about 6, parked on drive, had my tea went back in car to pick misses up about 6.20 - 6.30 instantly saw this white shit lookign at me ( the sealent ) thought wtf... It had been pulled up and cracked the corners and then chucked on pavment... ( my assumption is, thicko pulling up at spoiler broke it then thought fuck that dont want a broke spoiler )

So yeah a little anoyed, will have to get a new one painted up when i have my morretes painted same colour as the car




Quick one, i was all up for doing this car like my photoshop display picture, how ever im thinking it looks really fresh on white wheels colour coded ?

Opinions ?

thats so annoying about the spoiler

im sure its the only saxo on here with a gti spoiler aswel! took a bit of trimming to fit iirc

Keep the white! I love white wheels on yellow cars !

My mate has a set of white speedlines on his yellow ph1 172

Fuckers! Took me 2 weeks of tweaking to get that Spoiler fitted. The underside skin was removed and the edges trimmed and built back up to match the Saxo boot lid perfectly. Definitely not as easy as stick it on, job done.

Almost a shame they didn't fit it to their car as you'd know straight away no one else had done it

I could tell from looking at it that it had had some work done! if i recall correct the chap i bought the car off said the back window was smashed and he had to remove the spoiler to have a new glass fitted, wich is also a shame a every other window is original and has the reg etched on :(

Ill sort it at some point! i quite like the look of it behind with no spoiler though!

They are some cracking saxos! Nice one fella.

saxos look really odd without a spoiler imo
like somethings missing...

i remember when my mk2 spoiler fell off, at first i thought it didnt look bad and i quite liked it, then i grew to hate it lol

have to agree been looking at it at work and its deffo gota go back on having some running issues at the minuet think its idle controll valve and lambda sensor going to take it off the road for winter got to manny saxos atm ( 4 ) still havnt sold my westcoast so im going to stick a vtr lump in that and use it for a bit might have more resale potential with a r in it this is going to stay a vtr too iv got a mango furio in my garage wich im restoring too right heap but iv got an attachment to it if anyone has any ideas for what to do with this please share!

how much you lower it by and what size wheels and pleeease tell me where you got the lush splitter from :y:
