Hi all! This year I decided to make a stupid decision... I put the saxo into storage whilst I figured out what to do with my life/money/house/cars.
I also picked up an Octavia VRS 1.820vt to use as my daily that was in desperate need of work (June 2014) I pieced the octavia back together again and rolled on enjoying the extra power, space, comfort and boost that my old daily (Focus TDCI sport) didn't give me.
Needless to say I started modding the Octavia. New suspension, exhaust, stiffer mounts, M1144 pads etc. etc. all in the aim to get the VRS to 220bhp some time in the year.
So the SAXO... is covered in dust. Is sitting in my garage feeling desperately sorry for itself. My thoughts and feelings at the moment? Part of me says sell up/brake for parts and buy a new project, then there is the part of me that knows I will miss it far too much even if my daily does give me smiles per mile.
The saxo had a great year in 2014 - competing in sprint events - the car performed awesomely - Nothing went wrong. The new rad kept cooling low and the car exceeded my expectations... it just needed more power.
The saxo just has alot of memories attached to it now and the car now can only really be used as a fun/track car. Long distances really do grind you down! So some serious thought is required...
I'll let you know my decision.
