depends on how hard core he goes, Ie with Perspex and fibre glass panels, and thinning of panels, Ie chopping out some supports, ( some of the racers thin out the doors, boot lids) also thinning out the loom too, and removing practically all the extras and leaving just the basics in.

Thats weird...the heaviest 106 kerb weight is 880kg.
If he is smart he will get lighter wheels!
(and 206 180 gti bosch calipers which are slightly smaller and lighter 283mm calipers )

It owes me less money and its tidier! Win win situation. My mate offered me £300 for the saxo exactly as it stood so hes having it. Hopefully he collects and pays this week so i can get more shizzle bought.

2inch Supersprint race pipe & decat
Supersprint 4-2-1 tubular stainless steel exhaust manifold
My current fleet
The £150 106 gti...
And with the saxslow
HDi just generally being a reliable slut as always:
And for no reason, a nice shot i took of my 6am blast down to south wales (heads of the valleys / blackwood) to get the supersprint

£150! Absolute bargain there! Should be a good project.
FWIW it's worth my standard S2 rallye (with airbag and power steering) is 905 kgs with a full tank of fuel:

Shell's do have slight differences such as rear window cutouts etc

When you stripping it as I love ripping interiors out of cars.
