This is my first post on the site (hopefully many more to come!) Not yet purchased my I am looking into it just now, so many decisions to make - what colour, full leather or half leather, the list is never ending! I was going to uni a week ago and someone came straight through a roudabout and rote of my car Need to look on the bright side at least i can now get my well once i can drive (managed to break my wrist as well)

Here is the damage

Hey Fiona welcome to the site!hope to see more posts! Your saxo is completely destroyed!! What ST spec and color were you looking for?

Think I am leaning towards performance blue, I want the stripes down the side (not sure about the full ones). I am looking for the new shape. Just a case of waiting for the insurance money then i will be able to order one. ooh i cant wait.

Sound nice! but should go for the full stripes!! thats what make a ST!! SO you looking for a second hand then?

I wouldnt mind a second hand one, but needs to be a 06 registration and little miles on it (delivery miles or something like that). Been looking in the local ford dealerships and they say they can order me one (no-one has a blue one on the forecourt). How long have you had yours. Do you think that it is crazy buying second hand - i was just thinking of the depreciation when buying brand new, and thought it would be better buying "nearly" new.

I bought mine december last year! Did have delivery problem but second hand with low mileage should be cheaper but did see some new one with a good price!If you buy a new one your can choose all the specs!

Welcome to the site.

Hope you were Ok after your crash, it does look like it was real nasty there. As you say, at least you can get your now.

Just waiting for the important call (insurance) and I will be down to the garage straight away, due to my saxo being modified it takes them longer to give a price. The only problem is I would want all the extras if I was buying new £ £ £. The prices for new ones that I have seen are about £11,500.

what saxo what this? engine?what mods on it?

take a look round and see what 06 reg are going for,the thing is you can pick up a new one for around £11000 maybee less so check round and see whats what
by the way fiona welcome to the site,sorry to hear about the saxo and your broken whrist.

Thanks ChirsCumbria.

It was a VTR, full stainless steel exhaust, K&N induction kit, EBC discs and pads, full kit, all smoothed, flushed tailgate, headlight conversion, 17" Wheels (luckily my chrome ones were stored in the garage for winter), lowered, bucket seats, full install in alcantara leather, with pioneer head unit. Probably more stuff that i have forgotten to mention.

I was talking about selling it in the summer and buying an ST, its just happening sooner than i thought. I wanted something quicker.

how much did you spend then? all those mods must cost u lost of money!!

Thanks Iceman. I will do that I didnt think i would get one for less than £11,500. The ones with 1000 miles on them were 10 and a half. So its definetly worth a look around!

Yeh spent a fortune on it. Dont think i will go to that extreme again the ST is nice the way it is. N with all those mods the car rattled its way around the road, i'm looking forward to peacefull driving.
