Default 53 Saxo VTS - End of an Era RIP

As most know i have a 1.0 16v Micra...

Re-birth of my old 1.1i Saxo imo. RIP.

So after weeks of searching and many debates on what to get i came across this totally standard VTS with FSH ETC so went to view it asap. It was up for £1500 but i had no intention of paying that. I paid in the end £1350.

16/1/2012
Day i went to look at it;







18/19/1/2012
2 days later i picked it up;







Plans;

Fit the Supersprint 2" that i had on my old Saxo.

Give the archs a clean, alloys.

Repaint the calipers.

Maybe change the air filter later on. (no not a gay cone a better panel filter).


Give the engine a clean, archs a rinse wash wax etc.

Than enjoy it as it is..

for now..

Looks high because most are used to seeing either decked or lowered w.e on here.

Thanks. Ive have wanted a S for ages but jobless i could do fack all. Work works wonders i know ive slagged them off but i love them to bits tbh.

Wont be having anymore after this so i thought, why not just get the VTS? quotes came back a few quid cheaper than the 1.0 Micra so i thought it would be rude not to.
