Not much interest but I'll update anyways, more for myself than anyone else.
Broken down twice within the week of having it back on the road.
First time the same day it was taxed, the injector popped out and I lost all my fuel, had to get towed home to refit, half hour later, job done.
Second time was on Sunday, popped into morrisons, came back out, won £30 on a scratch card (happy days!) turn ignition, it starts then dies, does this a few times and then doesn't stop, not getting any fuel.
Phone AA they come out, he twats the fuel pump with a screw driver handle a few times, turn the key... Bwaaarp.
Luckily I have a spare fuel pump I'll swap soon.
Paying for my brembos next week, along with a new toyo t1r so I'll have a matching pair on the back, will get 2 for the front in time for French car show and get some track time.
Also have the car a proper drive on the weekend, only a saxo but had so much fun and I love it, but I desperately need new front shocks, so after French car show I plan on purchasing some bilstein b8s and lower strut brace (bent the old one)
Cars coming along and I plan to keep it a daily but due to not needing to drive it much daily any more it'll be getting fully stripped, more because I can and want to. But where I love is next to some awesome roads I'll make the most off.
Next year I'll be 21 and probably will move upto a bigger car, but will see what happens.

Yeah man, I got it from yb racing, I think it was £160/170 from them
Including the boss, can buy fake look likes it if you seen how easily they bend I'd rather stick to standard.
Yeah it's also suede, does wear in a daily but feels a lot nicer, especially when driving properly
