Description

This Saxo, like many others, is an ongoing project. The lightweight aluminium block engine was modified to produce 105hp. An increase of 40% over stock.
With the focus on track driving, all unnecesary weight has been removed. Wiper mechanisms both front and rear were removed in their entirey, the dashboard was taken out, central locking system removed, and all unnecesary wiring left in the car has been taken out.

The owner has a lot more planned for the Saxo, as it continues its journey to becoming a fully fledged track car. Expect upgraded suspension, a rollcage, and more modifications to the powertrain in the future.
