Just bought Saxo no.3. :rolleyes:

22k miles, 1 owner from new, only used in dry weather, garaged rest of time. Its like a brand new T reg car. Proper engine this time. Running it alongside the 106 DIEsel while I save up for a proper car

I actually really like them

Sell the 106 diesel for £500. You won't use £500 more fuel running the VTS, you'll save cash on insurance, and you can smile again!

I get free fuel if I use a diesel for work. I don't care if it gets battered into a kerb while im driving home knackered etc etc. I'm insured on the 106 fully comp and my dad has added the VTS to his direct line policy for an extra £70p/a and I'll drive it DOC until I get 2nd years no claims and decide what I'm doing.

Why would someone only use a Saxo in the dry? It's hardly a weekend car, is it?

They're nice cars, but after being out in a few, was fairly dissapointed at the performance of them.

Looks in really good condition though, any more pics?

Was just about to post the same really. Its hardly ever gonna be a classic.. TBH no current cars which arent "special" in some way these days will ever ammount into a classic "sought" after car.

Was for him, will be pretty much for me too.

I wasn't dissapointed with my vtr's performance, so with an extra 1000rpms, close ratio gear box, wider powerband and 20 extra bhp should be more than enough for me.

(mk1 front end =

)

I'll get some pics when I pick it up tomorrow but its 100% mint all over.

You can't do that though, DOC doesnt cover cars owned by yourself.

Hmm bugger, well I pick it up tomorrow so might just sign it in my dads name? But then thats an extra owner when I swap it over to me.

registered keeper is whats on the log book

thats different from registered owner,

get your dad to pay for it

but have you as the registered keeper.

slightly dodgy but legit
