    Something like a Saxo is actually so appealing nowadays. Really refreshing to have something that let's you actually feel the road, that's easy to work on, and cheap to run and fix. When you're in anything that light, it feels like a go-kart, you don't need a lot of power to have fun.
    Adding some upgrades and TLC at the value you paid for these cars sounds like a good idea

      This one was classic saxo with 1.1 small petrol engine but there is saxo vts with 1.6 petrol which is work of art and it is an excellent cheap car for track days and auto cross but the safety is terrible for todays standards. However the saxo vts is kind of rare so you may not be able to find it but you could have more luck with clio with 1.6 which not as good (it has a better safety rating so for sure a better fit for a daily) but it is still a small zippy car with an okay engine.

  • @benjaminkamben4908
    @benjaminkamben4908 Před 2 lety +86

    So for anyone watching this video there is an old mechanics trick using WD40 that helps any wiper blades that are noisy quiet down and stop streaking. It's very simple you pull the wiper blades off of the screen get a microfiber rag and soak it completely in WD40 then you pinch the wiper blade between your thumb and forefinger and swipe down the blades until the rubber black stain that you're seeing on the rag becomes lighter and lighter. It will never completely go away but it will remove all of the dust and dirt that is causing both the streaking and the noise. After that just make sure that the wiper blades don't touch the windscreen again until you see that the WD40 has dried. Another thing that helps before you lay the windshield wipers back on the screen is to give the windscreen a good cleaning with a high potency, high proof alcohol soaked rag. This is a trick that I got from an old hot-rodder that has been building custom hot rods since The Beach Boys were popular.
