... Proof that it is!

always thought the 'smoothing' on this car looked a bit poo
think it would look better with the bumpstrips still there just colourcoded. Just looks like the front bumpers melted imo lol

I know a guy in doncaster who did about £400 of welding under the boot and rear sils who said it was thee most rotten car he has ever had to weld up and the whole time he was there marc was sat next to him calling the car every name under the sun telling him to just bodge it up as any job will do as he just wanted rid of it. And then marc never paid. that was two years ago, so if that attitude has been taken for two years you have some serious work to do. There was some rubbish talked about the car, its just a bodge up of scrap yard parts and it was sprayed with the kit on and lights masked up. please do a good job and restore it well as potentially its a pretty iconic saxo. . . just don't look in the door shuts, ignore all the cracking filler around the fuel cap, and admire it from a distance

Ouch, it may be worthwhile buying a cheap flat arch or any cheap 106/saxo that's got a good floor and using it for panels. or even a total refloor, not actually as big a job as you may think.

its fine, i dont hold a grudge and think you owe me money, but you should make sure your 'mates' are legit. More welding was done on that car than your making out and nobody paid a penny to the guy who did it. And given his personal circumstances that was unfair.
