Haha I wish there was no big changes to the car but I'll write up a mini-update tonight.

To put it short it's being started Monday..I've had so much other crap going on in life I haven't had the time...

Recent Happenings

Well as I've said I'll be posting a little update with whats gone on..

I'm sad to say theres nothing major been done yet..as of alot of stuff going on in life..but it is now starting as we speak so my target date for full completion is March 27th..So expect alot more frequent updates in the coming weeks

Well as it's been a while and not much has happened all i've really done is fit carbon doorcards all round and strip the car a little more (haven't got pics of this yet, these will be done at the weekend.)

But back in December I took the saxo out on a track day at Brands and the weather was a bitch to say the least...But I still managed to get in a good few laps and have a good time so here's some pics from then.

so yeah...enjoy! And keep looking in the next coming weeks for the real updates!Bodies here we come!

Yeah I'm glad you keeping your's it is a nice example of a sax..but bodies are needed! The sound beats any boost...And just boost whatever else you get...

Are you not going to the fast show?

moxy89 · 21st February 2011, 21:45

Havent got a ticket mate, might go in james car, Car wont be ready by then mate.. Ill have boost in the RS man. Still getting one of them bad boys, or i keep the astra and can get a house this summer, but RS is more appealing

Ahh fair enough yeah just jump in James' car..
In all honestly if your wanting power get a low boost set-up on the sax and forget an RS move on in life get a house..

Yeah exactly and a house is a house a car is purely a car and not needed if you know what I mean its about time to move on in life, I'll be looking to move out myself at some point this year..

Next track day will probably be in the beginning of April but I'll let you know!

Man your getting on my nerves give it a rest already! i've been raped a few grand from previous bodge old bodyshop how do you think i feel left with a car with flaky wheels and flaked paint job and no receipt equals no come back!

should of sticked to the same place instead of going elsewhere getting the work done etc, i've had more bodge jobs on my car than you've had hot dinners! i'm getting my work done with Atspeed Racing, best company by far for advice etc, Colin has been superb to me better than local mechanics round my area! Anyway Wes going to be a lovely reving beast once done
