It is fine on the motorway there is no wheel vibration as it has just had 4 new toyo proxies and all been balanced plus the exhaust is not too load so there is know annoying exhaust note like some i have heard.

So....its the end of my days with a saxo. Been part of Saxp for gone 2 years now and iv had a laugh and met some cool people!
BUT
The westy is no more.
- She has a major/annoying electrical fault which i cant seem to fix/have time to fix.
- The engine is running very lean
- Sounds ropey as fuck
- Exhaust represents this (although backbox is fine)
- Rear beam is fubar'd
So im going to break it for parts. Sad way to go, but this car caused me nothing but problems really 
Everything but AMPs, HU and Sub is for sale. Not going to need any of it as i dont intend on buying another saxo. Not making that mistake 3 times!
If anyone wants to buy the whole thing with everything on ill listen to offer.
Breaking thread coming shortly....
...anyway for now im carless! Dont know what i can get either, everything seems to be too expensive on insurance and look ugly as foook
I'll be back!

nah not buying another saxo. I was looking at 172/182's but dont think i can afford one. so looking at maybe at C2 VTS - reasonably quick and group 8 insurance. Comfy too!
but not sure!
been checking your progress and its all been looking technical but not great! hope you sort it!

Thanks mate, the badger was my pride and joy and thats the one iv enjoyed far far more.
The westy was just a nightmare since iv had it, iv spent all my money fixing it, not modding it.
So yes, my new car is not a Sax...Jordysports knows what it is, as we were talking remap already haha
Hope yours is still going ok, not been on in a while!
lol

Mate my sax went ages ago now, Old Gertrude decided it was time to commit Suicide and go to the big Saxo heaven in the sky, was very upsetting sending her to be crushed, but in all fairness, she wasn't very well after she failed with something like 36 major problems on the MOT + a page of advisories lol
Tell me the new one, I've always been nice too you and you wont tell me 
Im no longer sending you kisses

I wont be picking it up for another week and i cant be bothered to not let on anymore!
Lippy...you werent far wrong...
...it is....
...A TDi...
...But...
...Not a VW....
....Its....
....A SEAT!....
Only picture i have for time being
Its a 2002 Seat Ibiza TDi SE
It has the fullest service history i have ever seen. Right back from when it was made. EVERYTHING that its has done is recorded.
Its on 108K but its diesel and well looked after so will be fine
Needs cam belt done soonish, but i'll get that done after xmas.
Have driven it once and it felt beautiful. Not been able to see speed of it yet, but it is a Turbo so there should be something there.
It's all paid for and insured, just got to wait until the 1st December to bring it home as it needs tax. Apart from that we're good to go!
Cant wait!

New car looks nice, remap sounds good as well. A mate recently had his 306 remapped and it's improved the torque so much. Only regret he has is not having dynoed before and after to see the difference on paper.
