Even tho I hated that saxo it helped me out alot and caused me to have a lot of fun, bought it for 50 had alot of fun in a field and the idustrial state where my garage is, and then sold a load of bits off it totalling 150, then gave the body kit and interior to my dads mate and in return getting a load of welding for it and then scrapped it for 150 so over all it was a total win
