Turtle Wax Triple Wax to wash it, then Meguiars Quick Detailer stuff normally or AutoGlymn Deep Resin Shine for shows etc. The Meguiars stuff is plenty good enough though to be fair from day to day.
Cheers peeps

No but the front bumper hits the floor on country roads/virtually anywhere lol. To be fair i can imagine alot of people would hate the ride with it being so low. But me & my mates tend to have a saying 'if it dont scrape on the humps, it aint low enough' lol.

I've deliberetly mounted the exhaust so that it's as high as possible as to not cause too much damage. But it still scrapes lol.
Infact last night went to a party and on entering the car park everyone was outside & as i come round the corner the exhaust popped it's tits off & then the front bumper scraped on floor (ground was virtually flat lol) & everyone just turned round haha. Apparently it was the best entrance anyway

love the car mate. always liked that colour and seems you done all the right things in my opinion. keep up the good work. only thing id change is the wheels, something a bit more class than the vtr wheels just to finish the car off

Like i say i've got the Wolfrace Octanes for summer. VTR wheels suit Saxo's so well IMO though for winter wheels. Although mabye eventually i'll get something with abit more dish. But for now my main focus is getting the interior done & getting the front lower. Then the engine modified in some way (not sure which way to go yet)
