Amazon Green Mk1 VTS *SOLD SOLD SOLD*

[chris205]

I've been playing with the idea of making a progress thread for the saxo for a while as was unsure if I was keeping it or not, but thought what the hell I'll make one anyway

I bought it with some mods done:

lowered 60mm
Mk2 vts wheels painted black
black angel eye headlights
2 buckets and stripped out rear
4-2-1 manifold, de-cat and exhaust
Raceland Air filter
Griffiths Engineering Quikshift

I've had it on the RR and it make 135 bhp which is respectable


So far I've done nothing apart from change the back lights to mk2 versions as I think the white works a lot better

Here is a couple of pics of it anyway




Standard Back lights





And thats all the ones I've uploaded at the mo, busy doing a 6 stage paint detail on it so will pop some pics up before it goes to Fcs

ENJOY!!!

I've got a lot of Snow Foam pics to shoot up of it but I've lost the lead i need to get them from my phone to the pc

[CJ_Saxo]

Best you find the lead and get the pictures up!

Have you not been pulled yet for you plates? lol

[chris205]

haha yes! nice £30 fine courtesy of the previous owner, its got french plates on now so I'm not really helping myself but got some nice standard ones there just incase

[Mr_suv]

very nice tbh!

[chris205]

well as promised I've just found the lead so uploaded some pics

Some pics of it foamed up, then rinsed off and dried









And a couple of reflections after a clay bar and hand glaze




going to do the whole car with SRP tomorrow and also use zymol cleaner wax then it should be prime for the carbon wax just before fcs

bloody love the mk1 amazon green vt* think its a realy nice colour ! nice car mate i like the vts wheel in black against the paint of the car !

[chris205]

thanks mate, yes im quite a fan of what the previous owner has done, dont particularly like the angel eyes so thinking some gloss black morrettes and a carbon fibre bonnet could be on the cards

[platty]

looks good mate, where you from i recognise the place in the first pics?

[chris205]

im from Co.Durham mate, thats near a call centre where I live

[saxomark]

Looks well nice mate, vts black wheels suit it all the way, maybe smoke your fog lights there are guides on here, and they will look nice with black angels, can i see some pics of your rear stripped out.. want some ideas for me.

Like that alot mate very nice.

[Saxy1]

Looks nice and clean mate.

[chris205]

thanks for the comments guys

been thinking of selling the car as getting a bit bored and fed up of spending money

however Im swaying more to keeping it and making it my own, dont like buying cars modded normally so will have to make it something special

Ive now fitted a single wiper to it, will try find a pic of it

Anyway, heres a few pics of the lead up to fcs, did a 5 stage clean on the paint

First off started with clay bar, handglaze, polish and wax

heres a couple of reflection shots for you

[Adam_Q]
