Bumblebee :)

I know I only posted a build thread like 2 days ago for my
Golf, but I was going through some old boxes in the garage and came across this old air loom



Its still written off cat c crashed it 6 months ago into a lil old lady (skank) outside co op in Huntingdon wasn't my fault btw she pulled out after not noticing this yellow thing heading towards her then once she did notice she decided to stop and watch the rest happen I drove into the side of her brand new red Hyundai, she claimed I was driving way too fast and tried gangin up on me with her family behind her I just replied to all her comments with f*** off you silly b**** I was very upset only had the car for less than a month and that very day I had just spent £200 on a supersprint exhaust and had it fitted that morning come the next day her insurance company called me up explaining she has admitted fault an that if anyone else was injured and that they will call me another time to sort the rest out,
The next call from was them aranging me
To go to peterbourgh to have it looked at by fiat :s I though Ay fiat WTF anyway they quoted it £2500 to fix so I asked will they write it off he said they don't like to so they might fix it something was telling
Me he was lying a little bit and he was I got a call like a week later saying were wrighting your car off and offering you £1000 and chance to buy the car back for £10 I just coughed and hung up anyway I managed to haggle £1550 out of them and bought the car back for £75 (bargain) then I solfataras the car to my mum for £600 and then she got it fixed for £600 and eve since it has been locked away my mum don't even have a licence and she never will so I told her I'm using the saxo and paying for it all to be tested and motd hopefully all done by next weekend Im having to use my dads 7.5 ton removals lorry to get it there but that's all I could think of,

I'm planning on buying a new manifold from kamracing possibly this weekend and get it fitted then get it all tested and motd and insured witch my cheapest quote has been £1800 so if anyone has any ideas for what company is best please tell me, I'm thinking of painting the wheels black and the centre yellow but it might be too much I fancy getting a carbon fibre bad boy bonnet then tinting the back window and possibly a roof wrap stripping the back out and get a couple of bucket seats,
That's all I've got planned for it so far but if anyone else has any ideas I'm all ears here's a couple more photos I've taken them on my phone and the sun didn't help it much

Nice wheels, those Techno rims always looked good on the small french cars.

Nice looking car but that story is impossible to read

Kieran, finally got the yellow beast back on the road

You getting adam to fit the manifold again? You'll get pop and bangs like my VTS used to do

If your wanting tinted back windows, i've got 2 rear quarters which i have on the car still, might be interested in a swap?

Well I've ordered my manifold I've bought this one twice for the same car



It's only a cheap one but it will do

Dewipered the back window just now went quite well considering people said it's a bit difficult 15 mins and a cut pinky

15 mins?1 mine was an ass on my pug.. had to hacksaw it off lol

looks good =D

Lol mine took 5 mins to take off need to work quicker, both off you

yea i had to saw mine but sawed the plastic so it came off quicker lol used a house saw so had to take my time and be carefull incase i started sawing at the car without knowing lol

just got an email about the manifold there out of stock and wont be in for a few days but its ok gives me time to find a lambda sensor


does anyone know how to upload a sound file onto here i want to do a befor and after on my exhaust sound?????

Yeh i've spoken to Kev at Kam racing as i want a few bits aswell for the VTS and he said everything should be in either monday or tuesday next week

is it a video or just a sound clip? try sticking it onto photobucket =]

It's a sound clip on my I phone I dunno how to share it x

Just down in Kent and bought these couple of beauties the picture I got from them ain't very good but in person they pool great I'll post a picture when there in tomorrow

Look good mate, if there reclining buckets, there a fail

You need fixed buckets

you can tell they are recliners =]

fixed are always better

Yeh your right, there a fail unfortuantly

Fixed are better all round

lol there recliners but fixed ones are sat upright and with my body being longer than my legs i have to sit quite close so if i had fixed ones id be chomping my wheel and teath marks on my wheel wont be a good look lol

also i cant post a picture of them in as i somehow left my iphone on the roof of my car drove off realised i didnt have it went back for it and it had been run over by an artic lorry

Well finally today i have just droped it off at the garage to have the manifold fitted and get an mot i might just make the date i planned on having it ready by.. the 27th i wanted to come along to peterbourgh might still be a chance

Sounds good mate

It'll be a once in a lifetime if that saxo passes first time every saxo fails MOT's first time

na not this one lol getting it all ready befor it goes in also the guy who doing it fixes it as he goes along the mot so should be all dandy

Good luck if the axle has any play in it then he won't be fixing that

But it should pass easily, check wheel bearings, axle etc

lol adam already checked that one lol especialy after my last one lol

Well everything is done MOT passed, got it fully comp insured with all mods declared £240.00 bargain, just one last little hick up i cant tax it till the vic check has been done and i sent the application form yesterday and should hear from them tomorrow its so annoying because when its days like today where the sun is out and i cant drive it and when i can it will wee it down and probley snow..

also anyone with a saxo and are thinking of a manifold dont get the raceland one it didnt fit it was way off so i had to get it cut and welded then the bolts sent with it didnt fit either and had to weld some of my old manifold to the new one but its on now and sounds siiiick haha lol

No you need a Mk1 Oil filter set-up for the raceland to fit mate plus sounds like you bought the wrong manifold

got it fully comp insured with all mods declared £240.00 bargain

^^^

How the fudge did you get that? How many no claims you got?

i dunno it just says mk2 manifold so i thought because mine is a mk2 it would fity but obviously not lol

lol ive only got 1 year no claims coming uo to 2 though but na i got fleet insurance so its cheap as so if i choose 1 day to put a vts engine and declare it it should be quite cheap
