Saxo VTS oh my lord....

[Ant1]

Just got a Saxo VTS for £300 local to me.

First owner had it until 2016 with apparent good history, 94k on the clock, the guy I got it off has owned it since and not particularly looked after it and lost the history. These are so basic it really doesn’t matter. Dents scratches the usual on body.

However hasn’t got any major rot so to speak, has some surface bits but it’s not structural. Will find the correct alloys and I would rather find a good silver dona car with better labels/bumpers than go down paint route.

Let’s see where this goes ???

They are the correct wheels for a phase 1

 

[Chris_Beer]

That white Clio doe

 

[Ant1]

I know right I think it’s his ? it has phase 1 wheels but it’s a phase 2 car.

 

[DaveDreads]

That's piss cheap, even a f*cked VTR goes for more than that.

 

[Daz...]

Nice purchase, love the VTS

 

[Mr Burns]

I like these... Reminds me of my youth!

 

[Djw John]

They rot from the inside out so I'd maybe hold your horses before declaring nothing structural. At that price though who cares!

 

[leeds_182]

Cheap! A 20 year old saxo with no rot would be unusual though but fingers crossed.

 

[Ant1]

Managed to pull carpet up, check rear wheel arches behind trims and had a good look on underside. Defo a gamble but as said, for £300 cares ?

 

[massiveCoRbyn]

Bargain! I would really like a VTS. If you get bored, let me know lol

 

[mr bognor]

Great little cars .

I had one as a track car a few years ago until I killed it at the Ring

Mk2 vts wheels are king.

 

[Simon998]

Wanna double your money? lol, I've been looking a clean mk2 vts for ages

I miss mine, was a little rocket

Used to own a Saxo VTS myself. Absolutely loved that car and it went like a rocket with basic breathing mods. The closest driving experience I've had to the Clio 172/182s and in some ways better.

Had a 106 GTI myself, loved it until the headgasket went, for the second time, Pugsport exhaust and raceland induction, done

 

[Jack!]

I could never fit in one of these.

 

[Ant1]

Looking forward to getting it back on the road. Exterior is not great tbh but not many of them are. Just a little worse than the average.

How tall? I’m 6”2

My mate has this ph1 Saxo in what seems to be quite a rare colour such a fun little car and a up coming classic.

Many years ago when I was looking for my first car (1.1 Fiesta ghia yo) I went to a birds house who'd upgraded to a VTR, it was a sort of burnt orange colour, it looked great! I've never seen another one in that colour.

 

[RIC172]

I had a VTR and a VTS at the same time. The VTS felt like a massive performance upgrade and was much more enjoyable to drive. This was due to the power delivery which was a lot revvier, plus it didn't have ridiculously long gear ratios like the VTR did.

I had a Saxsport exhaust on my VTS and induction kit. Hit 134mph on the way to the 'Ring too (GPS speed on Sat Nav)

I was gonna get another to run as a daily before I bought the 360.

‘Never been welded mate’ but the mot history told a different story!

They are getting a bit more of a modern classic status - especially the ph1 ones.

This is going to become your best friend!

Seen some horrible rot on the front turrets but sounds like you have a good one. Save it from winter driving though!

 

[Cookson]

VTR's are pants though, it's got to be the S or nothing for me

Check out the colour match on the bonnet. ?

 

[Jack!]

I wish I was the sort of person that came around things like this; cheap underpriced cars from a guy that knows a guy.

 

[DanMateX]

That is a good price! Never see them they cheap even vtrs

 

[Cookson]

And now I want this

Yeah, a tad two tone.

‘Custom management’ but doesn’t mention what it is! That’s cheap but I’m guessing it’s for a reason!

 

[cat171]

210bhp through those tyres, what are they like 165 's ??
