passed my test on the 10/11/2006 at about 11 o clock. by 12.30 i had been out and bought this.


first thing i did was change the lights to the black smoked versions


then fitted badgeless grill and lowered it



after that it went through a couple of sets of wheels.
white monza's followed by gun metal VTR rims




fitted gti leather, red carpet, quickshift, strut braces, pipercross induction kit



in febuary this year i stripped everything off it and sold it the way it is in the next picture, regretted it as soon as i saw it driving off down my street.


the next day i went out and bought a red 5 door astra. fitted a few of my own touches and spent quite a bit of money but im missing the saxo too much.


so im driving my astra for the last time next saturday, down to its new owner in aldershot. a 6 hour drive and then hopefully calling in to pic up my new saxo on the way back. will post pictures up when i get it.

should of kept the saxo, and the white wheels tbh and binned the rear lights

I wouldn't have bought an astra >_<

I like the stealth one with black VTS wheels :) GTI interior's expensive?

i changed the lights to black jewels, just got no pictures, i got the gti interior for about £300, when i was going back standard i swapped my m8 it for his ps3 and sold the ps3 on ebay for £700 :D.

saxo looked awesome! loved it right after you fitted badgeless grill and lowered it!

Love the red carpet in that Saxo, where did you get it from? :)

that was a good looking saxo like pred said should off kept the white wheels! as for the red carpet and seats looked really good havent seen anything like that before

you shouldn't have let that saxo go mate looked very nice! were did u get the badgeless grill from and was it hard to fit?

Unlucky having to go to Aldershot!

Saxo was nice.

you got your new saxo then?

richie has vts wheels for sale if your after some.

your first saxo was nice. i wouldnt of swapped for a 5door astra, 3 doors can look nice if done right, mate of mine used to have a mint one!!

its out of a 106 rallye, already got my hands on another one for new car.

aint got it yet stevie, gotta go collect it. you know how much ritchie will be after for the s wheels????

Gutted i can imagine, the Astra's nothing on the look of the saxo! :(

nice saxo mate should have kept it
im not a fan of astras i dont think they handle that well

I liked the look of your old saxo,nice with the white wheels.

Not a fan of the astra tho.

the saxo looked really good!
whats the new one your getting?
plans for it?

another black one, again red carpet, again gti interior, compbrake quickshift, half cage, supersprint race system, lowerd 40mm on apex kit, black headlights, smoked jewel rears, strut braces, poly bushes front and rear with poly engine mount, carbon bonnet, black headlinging and black a,b, and c pillar covers, smoothed out door badges, de pinned locks, enclosed induction kit, tidy up engine bay, wide mouth style bumper grill. streamline carbon mirror caps, erm, the list goes on tbh, already got most of it waiting to go in when i get car. just gotta see if the lad im buying it off is available on sat afternoon, if not ive gotta go down to aldershot then come home, then go half way back down country another day to collect car. cant wait to get it now.

failing that theres a nice 2 tone one ive got my eye on up in scotland.

well. after months of struggling to sell the astra it finally went today, for slightly less than id hoped but it went never the less. with me getting less for my astra i had to change my plans on what saxo i was buying. until i came accross one for a very good deal in ipswich. and with me already being down south i decided to go and see and bought it on the spot. so here it is. :D vts, few bits and peices already done to it. i will keep you updated on whats happening in the future. :D

Nice car mate, Hope you enjoy:P.
