my 6th saxo project posi blue vtr
 

hello all ive been driving the little matt black fiesta 1.25 on one of my other threads for a while but couldnt stay away from saxos as usual so ive been on the hunt for a new project so here it is..

its a 1998 posi blue vtr with just 66k miles from new with documented previous mots to prove and some previous history i found it on a drive opposite work and hadnt been started for 12months with a little help from a booster pack she turned over straight away and i drove her home and with no mechanical faults whatsover and pulls like a train for an 8valve! bargain buy!

the spec:
vts interior in immaculate condition
clifford concept alarm
scorpion (i believe) cat back exhaust system
decatted
pipercross viper induction kit
remapped
ebc cross drilled grooved discs
mintex pads
morrette head lights and grille
diablo red rocker cover and manifold heatshield (not to my taste)
o.z alloys with good tyres
lowered only around 30mm on the rear 50mm front? (they are black springs and its solid on the road? any ideas?) turns out springs are red just caked in sh*t

bad points:
needs n/s/f arch and side repeater
dent in bootlid
needs a good valet and service


pics to follow

pics from last night how i bought it..











picture quality isnt great but i will take some more later on today after ive done some work to it, also any opinions on what wheels to go for would be great i was thinking gunmetal grey vts' but there becoming common..

thanks

few pics in the daylight..

also dewipered it fitted a 3inch ariel and led number plate bulbs and refitted some of the plastics since these pics..





(not sure if i like these wheels)




opinions welcome good or bad

not to bad, a good clean under the bonnet and id spray the red bits blue or another colour that isnt red lol

gunmetal vts alloys maybe be common but look good :)

once the panels are sorted will be smart looking car with a decent suspension drop

how much you pay?

You have a saggy mirror :(

Looks a good base though!
If you do change wheels, I may have these off you if you decide to get rid..providing they're 15's :)

Whats it been remapped to? Looks good though mate, need to change them wheels though.

yeah cheers im starting to know these cars like the back of my hand now lol im a valeter so it'll be up to scratch as soon as i get a minute lol, not really sure what colour to do the vts wheels that my mates offered either grey or white im thinking and yeah it is 50mm atm with some very stiff rear shocks on it lol. panel wise just needs the boot doing the mirror and the n/s/f arch so not much really.

and £280 mate one of the most expensive ones ive bought lol

yeah hopefully get a mirror this week mate, i am selling the wheels now so ill inbox you details

lol @ one of your most expensive cars, doesnt the front bumper need a lick of paint also? lol

not sure mate a friend of the previous owners done the mapping i have the paperwork but it doesnt have a print out on it and im going for vts wheels

are you sure its lowered 50mm? looks standard height at the back and maybe 35mm at the front:S

just noticed there isnt a rear towing hook lol

one of my pricest saxo's lmao i work in the car trade so i get offered cars every day bought a e46 with tax and mot for £180 last year and yeah mate ill exchange a valet for a lick of paint soon

yeah the pics from the rear are after ive jacked it up and it hasnt settled down same height as my mates at 50mm when its settled

Needs a bit of tlc, also sort the sagging exhaust out, even if its just with some cable ties lol

in the middle of doing that now and its just a worn rear rubber probz got one lyin around somewhere

still needs a clean i know so dont tell me off i havent had time lol but i have got the fogs out and started wrapping them ;) and fixed a few more little issues like the loose grille which had no fixings in it! (still need to find one self tapper) and the morrettes indicator wire which was just loose, also does anyone know where i can get the reflective metal inside the morretes from cheap? as one of mine rusty and stained? thanks







opinions welcome also looking for wheel ideas peeps thanks

Alright mate, if you need any parts mate, let me know got a full body kit off a Posi blue VTR- also got Saxo wing mirrors too pal

i need a nearside arch and a drivers mirror mate also a drivers side fog light? cheers

Shall dig it all out for you pal, and will take some photos in the daylight so you can see the condition :y:
