Default New Saxo 1.4 Special

Hay all

I'm from the SE coast around Brighton & Eastbourne area, I had a MK1 Clio but had to get rid so got hold of a saxo and signed up to the site yesterday, I got my first saxo on Sunday,
its a 1.4 special not sure what the special is all about maybe someone can,
shed some light on that for me, anyway im in the middle of wiring in new speakers and a small sub in the boot, here's what she looks like.

I am aware the last owner put a spoiler and seats out of a VTR or VTS onto the car makes it look ten times better.

Boot

Stero

Nice colour, the crease in the back bumper makes it special I guess

If its not for an airbag it may be for an alarm?

Don't know if it's just me, but it really bugs me when the cigarette lighter is upside down, or not strait. Also by the hazard switch and demister there's a 3rd button, what's that for? mine only has hazard and demister lol

My mate said i should VT kits it, its ment to turn the alarm off when you leave pets or kids in the car that might set the alarm off, once you locked it, but i have never tested it

lol its smells lovely, but the dirt from the dirt track i live on was getting all over it, when the nabours were driving past grr
i have recently replaced all the wiper blade so i got flat blades on the front now looks alot better, engine bay is a mess, I've never cleaned one before so kinda stayed away from that for now although i have given it a wipe over in places with a slightly damp cloth
