HAMMY'S-MK2 Vtr (EURO/track look)- new pic - Saxperience

hammy105 · 3rd December 2009, 11:20

After buying my first saxo just under a year ago and it looking very worse for wear and needing allot of work, i set ahead to turn a average/broken one into something with a bit of taste.

Loved working on it, nice easy cars to mend/do up, but im not a fan of bodykits and massive wheels so went for the subtle but track look. After finishing this i have decided to start a new project, so went a bought a mk2 vtr in wicked red, 45,000miles, 1 lady owner from new, full service history, years mot, years tax, and new brakes all round for £2200, admitly i could of got slightly higher mileage car for less money but this is spotless.

So time has started to then set about the new project. Im at uni so money is very tight, so will be going for a very clean but subtle look. And it will be spotlessly clean once i have time to clean it as im a bit of a clean whore.

My 1st saxo mk1 vtr when i got it

after 6months off the road and alot of money and time spent it and just recently sold it for £1300

Now onto my new one, its complelty standard, has one minor key scratch on the rear passneger quarter but other than that shes a winner, and can't wait to get my hands dirty.

will keep this thread updated as i progress along.

The mk1 was amazing, what are the planns for this one?

hammy105 · 3rd December 2009, 11:39

cheers for the postive comments on the mk1, that would be telling, you guys will just have to wait and see as to how it progresses. But it should turn out just as good if not better than the mk1

hammy105 · 12th December 2009, 18:46

time will tell guys, but im turning into a cleaning whore.

but it should look very clean with subtle and tasteful mods, waiting to pick wheels up on monday from powder coaters, then get my f1's put on them. Grill is currently being worked on as we speak along with a few other little things

splitter was a cupra r splitter £18.53 i paid for it from seat. realy sublte but i think it finshed the front end off nicely

couple of pics of the traditional saxp stickers and a quick wash and polish, cant wait to properly get my hands on it and clean it!
