    A saxo is a chavs car full stop. Saxo/corsa little boy/girl racer! Though if it sounds crap this doesnt mean anything

    not to bad to fit if you are having it fitted by the right ppl, wont fit in the right recess of a saxo, looks ok if you have some bodywork done to sort it.
    best on rallyes though
    BTB is expensive but its the daddy!

    and PUgsports dont come to cheap 2nd hand hold value well due to the RR boys.
    
    theyre not to expensive new.
    
    but think you should go for something like magnex/scoropion on saxo

    Lol that cherry bomb sounds shit in that video!
    
    End of the day it's upto you what you get. I personally (will get banned for this) think that Magnex sounds shit. Actually, shit aint the word.... It just dosn't do anything for me and I think 50% of the people on this site that have them, just got them to be like everyone else.
    
    Like wise with the Cherrybomb.... If that sound pushes your buttons, then go for it... personally in a different way to the magnex I think its shit. End of the day it's up to the individual if they like it or not.

    it ain't gonna do shite for performance. tbh, all its going to do is add to weight of your car and if anything, slow you down!! their cheap loud exhausts, which is why they are branded chavvy!

    Cherry Bomb
    Be different and get a Monogoose which looks/sounds exactly the same as a Magnex for less money.

    Besides I havent seen a Cherry Bomb on a Southend Spaceship or anyother 'Chav-mobile' in ages if at all, the 'Boy Racer' team seem to be pretty stuck on universal Jap 4"-5" cans so I cant even see your point as Cherry bombs where probally out of fashion before you was born!
