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! |

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! Quote:
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 ) ![]() |

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.
