Default Gunmetal S - Car's back from the bodyshop!!!
My Gunmetal Grey VTS "Ellie"

Hey everyone.

I bought my saxo about two weeks ago and in that time have already got stuck in with my first mods
and a few small changes to the car's appearance...

The previous owner added a few mods:

* Compo MO's in original gunmetal colour (have been refurbed and resprayed since)
* Induction Kit
* Blitz air filter and forged pipes
* Connectors and reducers + Carbon intake pipe
* Exhaust
* Cobra Imola2 Buckets in Red/Black with black backing
* Rage 6-point race harnesses
* Rear seats and bench re-trimmed to match
* Rear tints
* Lowered all round by about 55mm
* Sound system
Some spare change in the car lol.

Here are the first proper pictures i have of her nice and clean since i got the keys...

Meg's, Autoglym and some zymol products and goodies used



Engine bay...
No strut brace fitted yet wont be long!!!



Different views...







Old Cobra red and black colour coded race seats fitted with sliding sports frames and 6-point rage racing harnesses.
I actually miss these seats now which im ashamed to say as i could wait to get rid of them and get some GTI leather in place...



^^ Looking back i realise now they would have been a fook load better when i was on track
@ Silverstone for Trax '07 and how much i miss them



SF Racing steering wheel...





Another view from the side...



ICE and Boot build...






Sitting on Eibach springs. Lowered around 55mm all-round i think...




Pic as she is now for comparison...


A LOT has changed since these pics so keep reading for more...

Shes now been nicknamed 'Eleanor' or Ellie (sad but there goes lol.)

Any thoughts or comments welcome

Cheers
Red

Interesting Induction kit, bet it sounds grrrrreat

Nice early S, I like the early ones much better than the smiley grill models.
Them wheels would look amazing in White

Not into ice so Id remove it and strip the rear but thats just me.

Nice wheels, love the seats, best colour of all the saxos ever produced.

I would keep it subtle and maybe refurb your wheels the same colour as the car, delock it and generally keep it nice and clean.

I think the mats make the interior look a bit muddled as well!
