Saxo sold, new toy now:)
 
It was a sad day, but sold saxo and now have got myself a new turbo toy:)
1995 WRX JDM Import.
Cambelt and service are 1st things to do for sure, but closer after I am looking at facelift grill, lights etc.. and STI Spoiler, be rude not too:)

Its VERY standard at the moment and ariel looks awful up, but its a new begining , to a new chapter, thats 8 years of driving with 8 different cars !!!! mad man!!!!!! lol

Its got 95k on, so its about 60k miles.

The sound of the flat four is just beautiful, thers nothing like it:)

This is my toy untill loans are paid of and then it will be EVO 8 Time,.

But for now, I am enjoying the 250 horses its provides>:)

Thanks:)

Nice little Saxo there, not like so many others you see :D

The WRX looks very tidy and it looks pretty standard too which is a good sign for a starting point :) Face lifting them is a good mod and a very common one too because it really brings them back up to date. I think you only need the headlights, grill and bonnet for that.

Thanks for the comment paul:)

Yea I agree with the facelift parts for sure, I wasnt aware you could get a bonnet also? what does it look like? how is it different?

Paulo P 03 September 2007 12:35 PM

The bonnet is a different shape due to the lights and grill. This is a nose on shot of a later classic so you get an idea.

JamesVTS 15 September 2007 06:21 PM

alright :) been on here for a year or so now, couple mates on here. evo was a very very fast car, had quite a bit done but was getting on a bit and cost me a fortune in the 6 months had it, gearbox, diffs, brakes, clutch,ayc etc etc.handled mint but was so hard, expensive insurence the list goes on, tho think ive made the right choice going to a scoob, sound nicer too :D
