Motors Who has a Saxo?

I do (and i defo not a chav lol its not one em crazy pimped up thing) its a special ed west coast 1.4 with factory fitted wheel arches and bumpers and 15 inch alloys (non standard) not lowered either

 

This might sound daft, but don't all Saxo's come with factory fitted wheel arches and bumpers? ?

 

ya but u look at standard saxo it different. whos that yellow one is that urs?

 

So you mean its got the vtr/vts/whatever body kit on?

 

well has same wheel arches, they must been optional extra wen it was bought, he told me they factory fitted, i bought it 2nd had u see my first car, i considering tryin to sell it for more than i paid for it ahha my mate has a great nack of doin that so amy get him to sell it in the irish republic lol they used to payin laods for a car he been offered near double for his 98 clio by sellin it in the repubilc of ireland lol

 

nope, this one hasnt


its only the vtr/vte and the special editions as far as im aware it wasnt a add on at the dealer either

 

Sorry to be pedantic, but that white one does infact have wheel arches and bumpers . In the literal sense.

 

VTR and VTS body kits ay... chav french crap tastic

careful with the manafold

 

i wonder if its got ice innit

 

just becasue someone drives a certain type car dont make em a chav lol my friend she drives a black vtr , she a heavy metal fan and more of a punk/rock chick, she jsut lieks cars too, im not a chav i be classed as a rocker, metal fan, any car can be a chavvy car, corsas, golfs, fiestas, escorts, all the extreme mddin turns em onto it

 

using "em" doesn't help your case

jokin chap... it's nothing about them being chavvy it's like you said any car could be turned into a chav-mobile.. however my dislike of the saxo is because it's french, it's made of onions and uses red wine for lube

 

Extreme modding = take a 1.2 Nova/fiesta, get rid of all the rust, strip down the interior, strengthen the engine bay and fit a 2 litre turbo, tune it hard, thrash it. (99% metalwork).

Chav = fibreglass+filler. (Or any saxo , just kidding)

 

Its got a 1.4L engine, thats too big for you average chav car

 

nah most chavs do the jump from the 1.1 saxo to a 1.6 VTR or VTS

 

trust me, a 2.0l 16v engine is good enough in a nova
but just have plenty of spare engine mounts and gear linkages. they go through them like theyre going out of fashion when youre caning it. the front suspension is also a bit of nightmare to get right with the added weight of the larger engine, but its the most fun in any car ive experienced, well actually the R5 turbo was pretty nice to drive too, more of a go kart feel than the nova though.
anyone with a july 98 max power iirc, check it out and the R5 should be in it with olivia.

 

my brother owns a 106 which is just a saxo with a worse interior and its possibly the worst car i've ever driven. hes off to get a saxo vtr later this week as well which i'm also expecting to be pretty awful.

 

boot innards... rear brakes and water lurking in the sunroof

 

and no leg room

 

Check this space when i have the time+cash, I'll have a C20XE/LET conversion .
