Saxperience - Citroen Saxo Forum - the saxo 1.1 east coast :) (sorta show car ;) )

Right so I was 16 and my 17th birthday was on the way so naturally i was trawling through ebay trying to see what i could find in my price range.

was looking a c2 1.1 but then my mate from fusion said to me that he had a 1.1 saxo sat in his garage doing nothing, he said it had a bit of a bodykit on but did need a lot of work. But for nothing I was up there like a shot and signing the log book :panic:

So i got it with a bit of a bodykit on and so on :) so here it what it looked like when i got it :)

the next step was get all the body work sanded at my local bodyshop (http://www.autokolor.co.uk/ ) I was quite friendly with him so I was down there every day after work helping with what I could and there at the weekends. often with a crate of stella working late into the night :drink:

after a couple of weeks we had got the bodywork to a good standard and ready for prima :) so we got chatting and then we come up with a few ideas and scott ( the bodyshop owner ) had said he had once heard that 206 lights can fit into a saxo with a bit of work so we got cutting and here is what we got ;)

so once primered it was left to stand for a week and then sanded once again it was back in the spray booth for the final colour :)

so once sprayed the next stage was the interior and audio :)
so once I got chatting to tom from fusion and me and him began the boot build :) the orignal idea was a false floor and one sub because thats all i could really afford :/ however we had a bit of a meeting and got chatting to the fusion market and retail guys and they said they could do the products at cost so off we went to car audio eletronics to pick up the gear and the boot build began :)

it helps abit when your mum works at b and q and you can get some diy stuff with discount :y::y:

so once the skeleton of the boot build was done it was time to strip it all out again and have the mdf flocked :) im nottingham based so was searching all over to find someone finnally found a guy in ilkeston who did it :)

head over to his site there are few of my bits in his gallery :) http://www.floc-king.co.uk/gallery.php

so once we got all the bits back it was time to get them fiitted :) here is what it looked like once fitted :)

so thats what it looked like I was happy but then the sudden relisation of the white not keeping clean hit me and was all changed to black leather :) which we and my dad had a crack at :)

so once that was done it was time for the seats :) so here is what i ended up buying some nice black half buckets :)

so there is how it stands now :) the next step for the car is to get some mam mts 1s and hopefully get it on a rayvern hyrdo or bag set up :)
