Today, I purchased my first car. Its is a Citroen Saxo MK1.

Its cheap for insurance, nice looking car. I also plan to do some work on the car.

Work planned:

New exhaust system. (Bought, need's fitting)
Debadge (Doing tomorrow) Cant Debadge
Paint plastic wheel trims (Be done soon)



Here is a picture's of the car.

Updates.


1. Nearly finished with fitting a new exhaust, just the down pipe to fit. Had to get a new one as previous owners wielded over a hole.

2. Fixing the electrics on sunday (hopefully) It seemed that the stereo didnt work as a wire has some how over headed and melted its plastic cover thing and surrounding wire's. Also got a new stereo so thats awesome.

3. We fitted new seat covers and the seats are horrible.

Not a fan of the colour, but for a first car it's cheap to run and insure. Painting wheel trims can make them look even more tacky than they are, so I'd be careful of that.

Also try not to crash, Saxo's are deathtraps.

Its just a stock exhaust, my dad wouldn't let me get a upgrade till Iv had the car for a year, the old exhaust needed replacing as it was decaying, and had tin foil around it where the previous owner wielded it.

Indeed. I think the colour will grow on me.
