Haha thanks alot mate ...
Arches haven't been done yet but they will be going Hammerite very soon. The rest of the suspension is painted with Hammerite as well as the Brake Calipers also.
The degreaser I use it Meg's. It's the bulk buy from CYC.

Going to give the car a really good clean tomorrow Sunday as she is flithy and not being loved atm.
Quick question - Are side window stickers ghey or not these days? I'm thinking to get rid of them to make it look abit cleaner ... I'm not sure ...

I'm going to detail it today and then decide ... Might get the 16v badges off as well. They've got to come off v.soon anyway so I can get the roof re-done.
Driving wise ~ Alot of people I know are driving nice VXR's etc nowadays. I feel like a dirty chav sitting in my french box.

I've always said that I wouldn't sell it now ... Wouldn't get any money and it's an epic car.
My problem is this ~ I've almost finished uni and (fingers crossed) shall we going into the job market now with a decent income. Within a short time i'll have enough money for something with abit more grunt and image.
People that don't know how nice to drive our Saxo's simply see them as a chav mobile. Obv this won't effect most people but sadly it does for me.
With me enjoying track days now i'd like to go balls out on the S, but still love the interior and how it looks atm. My dream would be ITB's etc + stealthy standard interior.

What work are you looking to do? Chav mobile? Haha, get some Lexarse lights and an eBay chip then. Your car is nothing like one. Even the uneducated can tell that.
