New Track Saxo

[leeds_182]

Little spin out today.

 

[cat171]

Love it!!! ?

 

[Daz...]

That’ll take another notch on the rear torsion beam. It’ feel like it’s going to throw you in every hedge you pass but will look amazing.

Still up for sale?

Lovely spec! I love a mk2 ‘S

Yeah, on Facebook only though so I’m not holding my breath.

Dreamers will be offering you £2k etc

Decent spec saxos/106’s never seem to get sold, always broken. Shame!

I did actually get offered 2800 but think I’d rather keep it and do a couple of track days.

That’s not too bad! But hold out and I reckon you’ll see closer to £3-3.5k

It’s ready to go for a track car and the itb noise is unbeatable! Mostly the reason I love mine is for the noise

Looks great and those wheels are still epic all these years later. I wish car manufacturers these days would take a look back through their past wheel designs for some inspiration..

 

[leeds_182]

Scene gauges.

 

[R3k1355]

Whats that little gauge above the three larger ones, AFR?

 

[leeds_182]

Yeah, it’s pretty s**t though.

 

[R3k1355]

Is it running off a wideband sensor or just the normal narrowband one?

 

[leeds_182]

Not a wideband.

 

[R3k1355]

Yea I can see how that could get annoying.

Is it particularly needed? N/A cars aren't so bad for det like a turbo one.

Don’t think so. Like you say it’s a bit of a must for turbo cars. I used to love my aem one I had in the Volvo.

 

[leeds_182]

Scene safe satchell engineering sticker added.

 

[leeds_182]

Since the Volvo went the saxo has been on daily duties.

It doesn’t like the rain. I’d probably be drier outside.

 

[R3k1355]

Sounds like you're about ready to shift it on and get something else to splash the cash on

 

[Coops Mk1]

Actually been on track yet? Flol!
Mega car though, always wanted one and nearly bought one a few times but just couldn't get on with driving position and pedals etc

 

[imprezaworks]

I would say so

I’ve had it on eBay for a week - not had any sniffs.

No, not been on track yet. Only had it back from the bodies fitting a month.

Was behind a lowered standard looking saxo today in that light blue colour they do, looked nice.

 

[leeds_182]

On eBay if anyone’s wants some 90s itb goodness.

Someone will get a bargain (I think it's too cheap)

Had it on at £3495 and didn’t get a sniff!

 

[cat171]

Wrong time of the year Jim, keep it till the summer & shove it on for more.

 

[leeds_182]

Treated myself to some ns2r tyres for the saxo today.

The youngest also got a ‘race suit’ for Xmas so demanded I take him out in the paxo.

 

[leeds_182]

Washed today. Not had any sniffs on my for sale posts so will probably end up keeping it until the weather picks up.

You never know, I may still have it for CSF19!

 

[cat171]

Keep it you mad man! I do think it would look better with a different rear bumper on it. That one's a bit weird. I don't like how it shows the exhaust etc.

Yeah, the previous owner chopped it as ran a side pipe so originally had no back box. I’d be tempted to do another side pipe system but with a silencer in it as the no silencer option is nuts.

 

[leeds_182]

Quite fancy going all planet sax with a centre exit.

 

[leeds_182]

 

[leeds_182]

Been missing the VTS badges on the saxo since I bought it so got some eBay replacements.

You need to do something to tidy up that dash mid section!

i.e sand all the ragged edges, fit a better cut piece of perspec/plastic/whatever, and have the labels made up on plastic.

This bit

I’ll be honest, that’s not that high on the list of priorities.

Sad times

I give it two weeks before you regret it & buy another one, or a 106 gti!

Lost massively on this one so keeping away from them for a while!
