My First Car
Hey all. Finally registered on this forum after months of background stalking before I dug deep and picked myself a Black 51 Saxo 1.1i Desire. I know its pretty weak but as its my first car I don't mind really.
Now I'm looking into mods for it however I'm more for performance than looks, such as for me any body kits is a bold no. However I think I'll be getting smoked rear lights and angel eyes. As for performance I have picked myself up an K&N Induction Kit that I'll put on it and I would also look into a new exhaust.
But are there any suggestions on other things to do? I will add photos another day due to the fact Devon is 3ft under water at the moment, just so you can help me decide what to do really...
Thanks, and hi all, my names Barney by the way, cheers!

Well, as it's your first car, and your in Devon, make sure, what ever you put on, you can take it off.
Not being funny, but my money is on you crashing/rolling it around a wet corner.
Welcome to the forum.  We're all here to help (especially viper and his spelling)

Like that plan, but insurance hits £9000 with that!

Yeah I've already had a couple of mates roll their cars, but that was late one night coming back from the pub, luckily with Devon under 3ft of water I can only drive it at about 5mph right now without sinking it haha
