Hey everyone I recently got a gold saxo for my 18th and has been nicknamed Golden Nugged and Golden Gash

not got a lot of updates atm because i'm skint, but it's only my first car

This is what it looked like when i bought it, 2001 reg and only 65,000 miles for £995

Please leave me a comment!!

with my bday cash i bought some smoked jewels off Ebay for only £55 inc P&P which i thought was reasonable. Fitted them today and am happy with how they look, only took me around 30 mins and considering i know nothing of DIY im quite pleased.

Comments welcome...

I wanted to t-cut the badges today but got none left. The mark is where the paint has come off

was like that when i bought it

scott-e- · 10th December 2009, 19:37

lockley91 · 10th December 2009, 20:45

Hmm not sure, got a good cd player n It came with 6x9's on parcel shelf when I bought it

scott-e- · 10th December 2009, 20:51

what cd player is it?
have you got standard door speakers?

lockley91 · 10th December 2009, 21:16

It's a jvc player, and some reason only the parcels are wired up.. door speakers don't work

scott-e- · 10th December 2009, 21:35

has it got front door speakers lol? (they may have been taken out when you bought it)
id say keep the headunit and scrap the parcel 6x9's
throw a set of comps in the front and a sub in the back

or if your feeling adventurous put a 7'' monitor stereo in ya dash like me lol

lockley91 · 11th December 2009, 16:02

tbh i'm going to leave the sound system as it is because it sounds pretty decent

lockley91 · 11th December 2009, 16:05

Small update:

SAX-P sticker is on the car

just hope they don't peel off with the rain lol
