Looking good mate. Colour look's very smart. Personally would have kept the plate on the boot as i think smoothed boot's on a Saxo look abit poo. But the car does look good mate and atleast you've done something with the back bumper rather than a plate in the back window

Started to bring my car back to good health today, so far I've got;
- Head gasket skimmed and resealed
- New cam belt
- New clutch kit, just for one thrust bearing! 
- New drive shaft
- New washer jet pump
- Full service
- Basically anything else I find wrong with it while its in pieces
- MOT on friday
Goodbye christmas bonus. At least it should be like new!
