beaver28's 03 Wicked Red VTS ** small update/spec list, possibly forsale end of the year**
Just picked up my new VTS to replace my wicked red furio. Loved the colour so much i decided to try find a mint VTS
the old furio:
basically the S will look pretty much the same as the furio but more spec'ed up
Spec of the VTS:
03 plate
completly standard
full service history
1 lady owner from new
and best of all a genuine 29,620 miles from new with all old MOT's to proove.
all for a steal of a price
the pics:
the best bit
will give it a clean and get better pics at some point
cheers

cheers for the comments
very happy overall only thing is the aux belt is making a strange noise. not just a squeek, think it could be the idler pully worn/bearing. will have to investigate more

its will be very OEM mate
had another look for the squeek today and think it could pos be the water pump. need to do the cam belt anyway so would have replaced it anyway
also brought a new plain tax disk holder, a magic tree and some autosoul to start polishing the cam covers

Small but nice update..
bascially i want the car mint so have began by doing some OEM bits,
new standered headlights as the clips on the old ones were broken and a standered grill as the old one was faded and some new trip clips and bonnet prop holder clip
also some of the survice history  even have the receipt for the car from the factory and the receipt for the optional extras which were metalic paint and floor mats that are still in the car
thanks

Looks nice  love wicked red saxo's shine so good once polished and waxed like my mums wicked red Vtr  Glad your keeping the car OEM, would probably get the wheels freshly painted/powdercoated silver so there mint and things like clear indicator bulbs etc.
