Progress thread:mikeyvts;cars been sold! - Saxperience

Mikey · 3rd February 2007, 10:19

well i thought id start a progress thread this fine saturday morning,

were do i begin, well i bought my saxo vts after owning a number of cars in my 1st year of driving. it all started when i past my test 3 weeks before my 18th! yeah! i bough a 106gti the next day china blue, leather., i loved her! drove her round for about 2 weeks then wrote her of taking a bend at 40 in a 60 zone!!! and the back end went! it was wrecked. i was gutted....

then i got a mg zr, never really liked the car to be honest and it was gone after 3 months for a black saxo furio, which a modified, vts interior lowered alloys the works!!! then the gearbox went and the miles i do started to take their tole on her! so she was sold on ebay for £2000.

then i bought my saxo vts as i like the saxo i had just lacked under the bonnet, the vts was the answer and i loved it as soon as i saw it on autotrader and never looked back since i got her

when i bought her she had already been lowered 40mm,

then i magnex came, and the grove brakes were added....

i was happy with her like that.....then decided to get angel eyes for her, not a clever move as i as glad to be selling them and there coming of today. notihg wrong with the lights just not my style...

then i got a powerflow back box fitted and de cat...

not a very good picture but its the only one i got of the back box, i dont think many will like the style but im a fan of oval exhausts...

and thats al that shes has had so far...
....this is how she stands now

Yeah when you get a dimma mate spay the grill blue and stick black or silver mesh inside it!

I love your car, why did you get rid of the magnex though?

well the day began when i stook the vts on my next door neighbours drive!..and began taking the front bumper of to get at the front lights, as one of the bolts holding the lights on was spinning and needed griping to get the bolt out.

when the lights were of and the originals back in place...

my attentions turned to the back seats and pulling it all out,

1st the sub and amp came out and other bits of crap in the boot..

then atmvts made a brief appearance and i talked him into helping me get the seats out lol....

here is all the seats out, the sub wires are still on on this pic, but they are all out now!

then atm decided to piss about lol......

then i gave her a good wash......

thats the end of todays activities on the car..im of out tonight i hope!

Mikey · 3rd February 2007, 16:55
