    I can either keep my furio to do performance mods on or i can get a ford focus or vw bora TDi around 100-130bhp and do that instead ? Just will cost more insurance for TDi. Would get VTS but can't afford insurance ? Thanks

    Me personally in your situation I'd go out and get a bora tdi, only mod I'd do to a saxo nowadays is either put a vts engine in or turbo it, and im guessing you can't afford the insurance on either...

    No i couldn't afford it lol as much as i want to keep my saxo getting a TDi sounds much more promising. choosing between bora TDi or Focus mk 2 TDi is hard though.

    I have made those threads to get my questions answered and hear other peoples opinions. So that's what I intend to do.

    I have moved this thread to the General Chat section, as i don't believe it belongs in the Saxo Problems and Queries section.

    Welcome to General Chat,

    ABUSE! Get the bora. Beasty cars. Saxos arent worth ploughing money into anymore.

    But ofc.
    Have you not seen how much legroom and back seat there is? Front seats are rather comfy too. Wouldnt mind driving one for slut dropping.

    Ohhh wait, drug dealers buy boras 2. and tint the headlights, and lower them and black them out. Do look mean though.

    I don't think there's that much room in the back tbh.

    Two people comfortably fit in the boot though

    I would stick with your Furio!! You obviously can't handle your 1.1 judging by your other threads. A 130bhp car would be a death trap with you behind the wheel!!

    Stick to your smaller engined cars for now
