Its exactly what anyone with a track styled saxo wants to achieve (well imo).
Interior & engine look tidy, bet its quite an expensive car to maintain though!

Good luck with the event & keep us updated!


Thanks..

Yeah your right, its got pretty much eveything a proper race car should have, you name it, its got it..From coilovers to an LSD to a cage..Its all there..The engine bay and interior are tidy, was very dusty inside when we got it from the rallies, but thats sorted..Uber cleanliness isn't a major concern though, aslong as its presentable and relatively tidy..

It drinks fuel when you nail it..The power its producing from a 20 year old 1.6 8v engine is quite high..Its quite pricey to maintain..Main cost goes into service parts like oils and fluids etc which need to be regualry changed..It will get expensive if the diff goes or the engine lets go..The engine is very recent though, the head is full of brand new internals and the bottom end has only done a handful of events so it should be reliable for quite awhile..

I'll definatley keep the thread updated..Should have some nice onboard footage from the rally too..

Cheers, James
