I fancied this car when I saw it in the for sale section, but just too much pennies for a saxo for me. Does look very clean though.

I thought it was at first. It was thick dirt but i will keep an eye on it incase.
I didnt pay the asking price as i personally thought £1500 was abit too much.
Yeah it looks like its never been cleaned before and i was expecting some rust, maybe a soft spot but everything is immaculate! and solid so it was something i had to do asap. Will rinse them out every week and the wheels will come off once a month for a proper clean. Not letting this one go tae shit.
Hopefully the fronts as the same. No rust in the bay so i cant see why not.
Cheers.

Waxoyl them JohnGee just to be safe.
Also, explain the brake/suspension thing? I cant see how brake pads will cause the trailing arms to move to raise the rear?

Well when i pull off you can hear the pads gripping at the back, slight sqeal than it goes so i assume when im parked they are keeping it a couple mm higher. Might be wrong but i cant think of anything else. Hopefully it doesnt become too much of a problem.

The only way the brakes would affect how the suspension sits will be if you put the handbrake on when facing either up (raising the rear) or down (lowering the rear) a hill.

Still too many pennies for me, but I went for the high mileage option and £500 in my back pocket on what you paid for this.
I need to clean mine though and check all the bodywork! Doubt mine will be this rust free on an 02 plate.
Don't give into the mods either! Although an Apex 35mm kit wouldn't go amiss

Hardly done anything on mine though since I got it, got a shed full of spares and it needs an interior make over from parts taking over my living room!
Yours is a very nice motor though mate, and I don't blame you for wanting to keep it standard looking, but a 35mm drop and some 106 leathers wouldn't go amiss. I find the mk2 S interior pretty uncomfortable.

Sooo cleaned the front archs as im anal tbh..
Disks/pads must of been changed not long ago. Awesome.
Unsure what colour to paint the calipers. No rush tbh.
Yellow to match the 'S' on the door?
Well she pops awesome on the downshift cruise in 3nd drop to 2nd POP POP POP POP and loud too! OEM system with cat/silencer? with 2" box.
Excuse her being dirty.

that is a very mint example. On a 53 plate aswell which is pretty rare. Dont be scared about ruining it if you mod it though aslong as you keep things subtle then jobs a good'un. They can get pretty boring kept standard imo
