Chris_VTS Progress Thread - Engine Bay Pics

[Chris_VTS]

Its good to back on Sax-P and good to have my backside planted in another VTS. I found this on the Autotrader last month when I wasnt really looking to buy a new car with it being so close to Christmas etc. Upon ringing the advertiser he told me the car was in Nottingham which is about 150miles away. So I called up my mate that night and we went down to view the car the next morning with only the sellers word it was in good condition as there was only 1 pic on the ad. When I got there I found this













The car is totally standard, has a fully documented Citroen Service History, old M.O.T's HPI check and 1 owner from new (who was a middle aged woman). When i brought it back home I took it to Manic Motors who are mainly a Saxo specialist to get everything checked over. They said that it is one of the nicest examples they have ever driven and can tell that the mileage is genuine due to how tight and smooth the car is. Im going to really look after this 1 and will keep you updated as the progress is made. Any comments welcome!!! Thanks.

Really mint car mate and that's mega low mileage for a 99 plate.

How much did you pay for it? Chris @ Manic Motors is a top lad...

[Chris_VTS]

Was up for £2400 and walked away with the keys for £2075

[Luke]

Absolute bargain.

[Chris_VTS]

only had 19k on when i got it

Welcome back matey, very nice example mate. Dont break this one lol

What happend to the type r?

[Chris_VTS]

Sold the type r mate. There was just something missing from it that didnt really justify the 13k I spent on it. TBH the saxo is a much more responsive car and feels a lot quicker round town and around corners. The type r only really comes to life on a track imo.

Nice saxo ! Looks like are real minter mate.

[Chris_VTS]

Thanks. When I have a spare minute i will give it a right good cleaning and take some good pictures as those pics were taken with a camera phone. Not bad though I thought...
