i put that up a while ago i was just seeing what peoples opinions were tbh, yea i wanna get a track car next, i dont really wanna say "track" as such but its gonna be a bare, fast(ish) sleeper  wanna get a flat arch mk1, keep it standard but clean on the outside, my house mate has a 1,4 xsi engine on r6 bike carbs (around 120bhp) and hopefully i will take that off his hands with his 4-2-1, inside wise bare as possible couple of fixed buckets/harnesses, if i decide i wanna do track days then ill try and get a second hand cage, dont want this to cost loads of money and i wanna take my time over it and do everything properly, i wanna have a nice daily driver as well which ill buy from the sale of this saxo, probably a diesel a4, rs4 look alike  lol

well dont go euro if you want a track car, they just dont mix at all lol
slowly my car is just turning in to a big bag of nails tbh  but i get paid in a week so the car is going straight to the garage to sort it all out
heres a list of whats wrong with it:
-fan doesnt kick in (gonna get them to hard wire it in and bleed rad again)
-need my discs and pads fitted along with new brake fluid
-new pas pump
-find out why my rear beam sounds like a virgin being rammed up the arse by a 12" dong lol
-and also my car has started vibrating a lot on idle and dont know why!
-new clutch release bearing
and hopefully get a new drivers door and then all my annoying squeaks/noises/vibrations should be gone lol

as some of you may know my saxo is off the road as the clutch went and as it went it damaged the crank position sensor so the car is currently sat in my work car park waiting to be towed away and have the clutch replaced, as the car is gonna be off the road for a while i bought my self a 106 as a run around when the clutch is fixed ont he saxo im gonna put it on my drive and get allt he other problems sorted out on it ie new brake pads/fluid, fit new drivers door, sort out the amp wiring, sort out the squeaking in the rear beam and get the bodywork sorted
Mods
-jvc cd player
-gti spoiler (might be standard??)
-de-badged boot
Here are the pics:

Three stud!!!!
Heres a few pics of the bodywork problems

scab of rust where the last owner must have scrapped a bit of paint off when de-badging

little crease in the 3/4 panel

the worst is the offside front wing which is very badly rusted for some un-known reason
since the pics have been taken I've given it a good clean, hoovered and clipped the carpet back in place where it was coming loose
