paul_vtr666 - Gold VTR - Progress thread

[paul_vtr666]

Hello, this would be my third saxo in 2 years but I think only the second ive posted on here.

Its a 2002 VTR which originated from Scotland but was brought over to Northern Ireland a couple of weeks before I bought it. Wasnt really after a gold one until I seen this but it had only 29k miles so couldnt really refuse. I dont regret getting this colour as there are hardly any others like it round my area.

Ive had the car since December 2007 when it was standard and have carried out the following mods since then. I have two sets of wheels for the car which are in the photos but the OZ Saturns (white wheels) are going to get sprayed silver again.

superb. you got a fair few sensible mods there mate, but i dont think the saturns look wright ? it looks a whole lot better with the antracite vtr wheels on . keep on with the good progress buddy

some people like them and some dont. im not 100% sure to be honest but its defo different. think the car needs to be lower to pull them off properly

[Hopcraft]
