Show or Slag??
As you may know, i have a saxo VTR and it's quite show at the minute. It's had £££'s spend on it and has been featured in Fast Car back in 2004.
I'm in the process of stripping the saxo out at the moment but i am still 50/50 on what to do. The whole interior is out except the front two seats and a load of wires.
If i stay show i want to go a bit overboard on the car and make it a real head turner but if i strip it, i will be losing the whole kit, wheels, exhaust, interior, engine etc etc...
Advice please

No, its because people believe having V-Tec gives them super powers.

Slag = actually fun doing it and enjoying it afterwards
Show = 80% of the population look at you gone out wondering why you have wasted so much money, you get cracks and have to drive about carefully or the hard work generally gets fucked up.
I appreciate both mind, but opt for Slag

I duno.. the amount of money people spend on seats, harnesses, steering wheels, roll cages, carbon fibre trim etc could have easily brought them a nice kit for the car
Slags about upping the power, removing the weight, improving the handeling + stopping and generally making the car safer!

i agree with both your right tom people spend loads on stuff like that but majority just take stuff out and slag it because its cheaper and requires little thought!

TBH if your car has had LOADS spent on it already, i wouldnt rip everything out!
Just do the inside up so its as lairy as the outside, and then get another one for slaggin' 
But it wont matter too much, as i doubt nic will have spent much money on it
No, its because people believe having V-Tec gives them super powers.
