So, /o/, Convince me not to buy a 2002 Saxo Vts 16v with 30k miles on it for 7000$
>>14744537
Do it fgt.
>>14744554
exactly what I didn't need nigguuh
>>14744537
Buy it mate. I've owned so many little French cars and loved almost all of them. You will enjoy driving it.
>>14744537
Pros
>lightweight
>relatively powerful
Cons
>French, so reliability may become an issue in the long run
>quite expensive for a 14 year old shitbox, even with so little miles on it
>>14744537
if you want your face to be a crumple zone it's a top choice
>>14744537
Is it the car in the OP? It has been thrashed everywhere and doesn't have 30k miles on it
>>14744537
It's overpriced by about 4 grand
Shit I nearly bought a VTS (in admittedly poor shape) for £900
>>14744537
>Convince me not to buy a 2002 Saxo
just look up NCAP crashtest of the saxo
>>14744991
Don't know what you're talking about.
The airbag looks comfy.

>worth more than its weight in scrap
ahahhahahahahaahaha no.
>>14745072
>knowledge derived entirely from memes
>>14745108
front wheel drive is objectively inferior for performance and french cars are notorious for their unreliability
deal with it, eurocuck
You need girly feet to drive a saxo, the pedals are tiny.

>brags about "performance"

>>14745108
Saxos are awful in any trim, sorry pal. Your own knowledge is derived entirely from "memes", just ones normies toss about in the pub.
Do it
>>14745436
>he posts his boring econobox fiat with a trip like its anything special
>buy West Coast 106 Rallye
>do B or K series swap
>do brakes and suspension
>>14744537

>>14745189
Yeah is that why camaros lose to honda civics on the track kek
>>14744537
Bruh I bought one for 1500, runs on lpg and only needs minor maintenance. It's a 1997 model though, but still, 7000 seems pretty high.
>>14748213
the model' I'm looking at is in perfect conditions. like new practically. It also has some improves in the engine bay, like conic air filters and so on
>>14744537
>$7000
yeah m8 its only like 6k over priced. come to england pick up 3 for £1500 then import them into whatever shithole country you live in. then use the savings on replacing every single nut and bolt for hex heads, then reaplcing all of the wiring once it fuses itself together and to the chassis.
>>14748213
>LPG
>>14748237
The 1.4l blocks run fine on it, plus it's a third of the price of petrol per liter
>>1474825op's one is a 1.6
>>14748331 meant for >>14748253
I'd get the 106 gti or rally. Same engine, better chassis.
>>14744894
>French, so reliability may become an issue in the long run
ebin meme gent.
French cars had dodgy electronics from late 90's to 2010, but they have greatly improved and now topping reliability charts behind japs.
And french cars never had issues with Engine (unlike german cars), suspensions (unlike japs) and chassis (unlike rust bucket fords)
>>14748434
same car, same engine, same chassis.
considering that the saxo is a early 90's to early 00's i think the electrical gremlins are a cause for concern
>>14748439
electrics are surprisingly good on these
7000$??? Even if it is in perfect condition it's to high. They are not worth more than 3000-4000, again if its a really good unit.
>>14748456
actually 6500 euros with some performance mods on it
http://ww3.autoscout24.it/classified/281390698?asrc=st|as
>>14748456
or i was considering this one too
http://ww3.autoscout24.it/classified/277167685?fromRecommendation=true
3200
Lol europoors driving shit cars because real cars are to expensive for them
>>14748480
>considering a corvette a "car".
top kek m8
>>14748479
3200 is a much more reasonable price, its a fun reliable car if its been treated well (hard to finde one hoy has).
The aftermarket support is great, you can change almost everything and make it stupid fast around mountain roads.
>>14748491
Fucking auto correct...
>>14748434
>french cars never had issues with Engine
lol
>>14744806
Care to elaborate? Whay cars, what did you like about them?
>>14748480
>overheat and dies on the track after 5 minutes
lol
>>14748598
LOL dd in Florida with no issues
>>14744537
>7k
Yeah no.
>>14748636
3.2 k option too
>>14745817
It's not, but at least it can turn.
3.2 k one loooks worse condition than op one
>>14745310
Can confirm, used to drive a Peugeot 106 van at work and my feet were so cramped.
