   think you should consider fitting roll cage and bucket seats before

   I used 3 point harnesses from Halfords many moons ago. They were great, and did the job fine.

   2day = today.
   
   You don't really need a rollcage just because you have buckets. People just recommend a rollcage because if you roll your car and you got bucket seat and harnesses in they hold you upstraight. Where as normal seats and seatbelts allow you to lean over.
   
   You said for 'road use', aslong as you drive safely you should be ok. If you wanted to start using your saxo for 'Track use' then you should definately get a cage if your using bucketseats + harnesses.
   
   Also might be worth knowing, a few insurance companies won't insure you if you have a roll cage. Such as Chris Knott.
