    i have a saxo y reg and iv had it for about 2 months i got the car because i had a clio that needed alot of work doing to pass mot so i cut my losses and scrapped it , i got the saxo for 1000 and was cleaner than a nuns hard drive
    after driving it for 2 months i invested in a saxsport exhaust the race one http://www.saxsport.co.uk trol lol
    and decated it aswell

    was sounding amazing

    after a week i noticed oil patches under car after checking my head gasket was fecked i could fit a hacksaw blade into the gap

    but not all is bad
    my brother also a car fan who has a c2 gt super 1600 rally car spec has a spare engine nocking about from a c2 gt but all i need to do is get a couple of part

    inlet manifold 106 gti/saxo vts
    wiring loom 106 gti/saxo vts (saxo vts proffered)
    exhaust manifold saxo vts
    and then a radiator from a diesel saxo

    but im hoping my car will last until i can get all of these parts
    so if anyone can help it will be much appreciated

    Best tip i can give is become a member on here, get into the for sale threads and ask about. some one will have the above parts. watch out for ebay, some good bargains, and some right scammers.

    if you can fit a blade in the gap between head and block dont drive lol.
