So, last month I got my Saxo VTR back after it having a full engine rebuild; new inlet valves, new exhaust valves, new cambelt, new gaskets, new oil, spark plugs, leads, flushed out and a full service! It only went in for a routine cambelt change and an unfortunate mistake happened where all previous 8 valves got bent (as cambelt slipped 3 notches), lol!!! These are the photos the garage sent me, with a cool photo of some art work done on the Saxo while work was being carried out. Brand new engine now!

Update. Runs great! Still bedding in, etc, and no engine management light comes on anymore. Still need to put my new shocks on all round and sort the light knocking underneath when I turn wheel here and there (believe it's a rubber as i've had a 2 new driveshafts anyway)....
