Hey everyone

Just recently signed up and wanted to introduce myself. My name is Steven and live in Norwich. Been a big fan of cars for a long time and have owned many hot hatches, but my current car is a Saxo VTR and funny enough it's one of the funnest cars I've owned.

Parts are so cheap aswell so def an ideal track day car. Its my work car at the moment but slowly being turned into a track/road car.

Current mods are:
VTS alloys wrapped in Kumho sport ecsta
Lowered 50mm front and 45mm rear or Apex springs
OMP strut brace
OMP 300mm steering wheel

I'll start a build thread soon as I haven't done one in a while lol.

Hi Steven

I'm a old school fan of hot-hatches and appreciate the grin from cheap cars. I still keep thinking about another 306

Welcome. Nothing wrong with Saxo's when they are prepped right and in the right hands. I have tuned a few Saxo's & C2 VTS's to a high spec and Gary had a Saxo at one point lol.
