Saxo Vtr 1.6 any advice?
Hello Guys i'm new here and i have seen loads of really nice looking vtr's
i have had my saxo for about 2 months now and would like some advice on what i should start with first. I don't have much cash to plash on it altho i would love to but times are hard.

My advice is this , stay factory standard as much as possible in my opinion they look better that way , do a full service on it and give it a good clean underneath and anywhere that saxos have problem corrosion areas in then get out hammerite and give it a lick of paint , job done

Paint the grill it makes a massive difference to the front end. S wheels are always a good shout.
