Bretts AX GT
With the current modifying trend towards huge wheels and over the
top body kits, it makes a nice change to see a very clean, old skool
style car
Brett’s Citroen Ax it what a modified car should be, an enhancement
of how it rolled out of the factory. Its been treated to custom
front and rear bumpers, the front having a deeper, more aggressive
style than the standard one and the rear neatly housing the twin,
centre exit exhaust.
The body also features some other subtle touches like the single
wiper conversion, delocking and a bad boy bonnet, complete with
custom air intake. The standard wing mirrors have been ditched for
some sleeker DTM ones. All of this has been coated in a deep one off
red paint job with the brake callipers to match. Finishing off the
outside is a set of 15” 5 spokes and has been slammed a massive
150mm !
The inside hasn’t been left alone either; it’s been treated to a
race car look. A set of Cobra buckets seats hold Brett in place
while the steering is controlled by a racing steering wheel with
nitrous buttons. The dash board has been colour coded in red, black
and silver with chequered plate door cards and mats. The front and
back are both lighted up by a pair of neons, one under the footwells
and one in the back.
Brett hasn’t scrimped on the sounds either, the boot houses a red
and black sub box which is home to a couple of Xplod red and silver
speakers. These are powered by a 2000 Watt amp but, in the interests
of sounds quality, the back of the car has been sound proofed.
Providing the mid range are a pair of Alpine speakers in the front
doors and the sounds themselves are all provided by a Sony flipfront
head unit.
Engine wise, the mods are fairly minimal with the carb being ported
and polished. The engine bay is also home to a yellow top battery
for powering the ICE and a strut brace to beef up the already good
handling.
