Hey everyone

Swapped my saxo 1.1 plus £100 for a 106 XSi 1.6.
only bad points are the paint is faded and flaking

so far its had a de-cat pipe, filter, and smoked lights.

Future mods include
*Pug Sport exhaust system
*4-2-1 Mani
*Forced Induction kit
*Morettes
*Rapid or VTS alloys

Wat ya think?







I over took a lambo!

Just a little update

brought some standard back lights, fog lights, and clear side repeaters for £20 of a kiddy from 106owners.co.uk

i missed the postman so had to wait an extra day to go collect it from the post office.

got it today and here are the results
[dont have a after pic of the fog lights because it started to rain]

i also got bored so dropped the spare out and decided to spray it lol yea i did use normal house tape instead of masking tape because i couldnt find any.

Update 13th September 2008

Not got much money this month, manager wont give me no more extra hours and paying £160 a month on insurance doesnt help lol

so decided to strip out some more stuff lol and wire in the old speakers because the previous owner had some 6*9's on the parcel shelf.

still need to get the seats out and take out the rest of the carpet but the screws are in to tight!!!

Next month gunna lower the front 60mm! and get the back sitting level :y:
