Not as far as I hoped, gear box and clutch are all in, new drive shafts, gear linkages all in.
Still haven't started lowering or brake upgrade yet.
Fitted some new tinted lights I picked up as well.

Update time 
The saxo is back up and running, drives amazing with the new clutch, gear linkages, short shifter, drive shafts and track rods.
Still awaiting to get the gti 180 brakes, braided hoses and lowering springs.
I need to order new lower arms and then will get the rest fitted.
Here's a few pictures of the car now ready for fast show this weekend.

Went to fast show for the weekend. Got 2 runs in on the Saturday.
17.3 seconds on both runs and 0.7 response time.
Anyone know if this car is on here?
Needs a clean now and get it lowered and the new gti 180 brakes fitted

Had a very productive day today
Got 2 new front wheel bearings fitted
Lowering springs fitted
Bled the brake system
Blacked out the rear badges
Quick wash
The steering feels amazing now, the brakes need adjusting on the pedal.
Will get it hopefully booked in this Friday to get the tracking done.

Another Tuesday Update!!
Got the car tracked today, adjusted the brake and clutch pedals and treated her to a clean.
Drives amazing now. Need to get myself another exhaust as I'm not happy with this, always making contact with the torsion bar which is not fun and makes a lot of noise. And then to concentrate on a cage, tyres and some bucket seats.

Done some painting today, gave the alloys a quick refurb. Finish isn't great but will do the job for now, decided to spray the grill the same colour as well as the faded plastic look wasn't working for me.
Just ordered a blanking plate for the stereo, will be relocating the window switches there.
Ordered a new gear knob as well.
Just boring updates at the moment I'm afraid.
