SAXO VTS!!! Oh dear......
Lowered, strut brace, uprated brakes, 16's, Carbon Fibre Induction cooler off Procomp (developed on this car) Scorpion 3.5", few body parts and R16 VTS as the number plate.
To be fair though it was a brilliant car 'till it got written off by some tw*t running into the back of me!!

Only car I have ever owned that hasn't remained stock was a 1971 Beetle, and that's only coz it was in such a **** state that there was nothing original left on it once it was road legal again except for the body pan. Externally it looked pretty stock, just had a tweaked 1600cc (instead of the original 1300) with a big zaust.

Couldn't have been very successful driving that thing, although did put Spax suspension on it and the thing went round corners like it was on rails

£150 P1 replica
front spoiler£350 STi V5 spoiler, ready painted
£250-ish for colour coding
£700 Speedline Turinis 2nd hand in boxes
£360 4x 215x35R18 Toyo Proxes
£160 H&R springs inc. fitting
So £1970
all in. **** me, i really hadn't realised it had cost me that much... 
Also, because mine was MY98 i had to buy the bumper and grill as well. We'll ignore the Morettes. One more of the chav-mobile...
Thank you for the nice comment as well Claire.

Cheers Carl, yeah mine is a 98 as well so would need the same changes. I guessed around a couple of grand without wheels so wasn't far off as some of those prices you have are 2nd hand so I better get some overtime - in fact shed loads of over time lol
