You see those common old rallyes everywhere, but how often do you see a 5 door DTurbo HDi?









Yup, I bought another one.

Bought it to break.....but I kinda like it.

Tom

It is tidy for 160k lol. The previous owner had a front end bump and broke the rad so it leaks....drove home without losing too much water though lol. Bumper/bonnet/grill are all knackered as well, not really noticeable in the pic though.

Also somethings catching on a wheel or the steering rack when turning lol, gotta check that out before driving it anymore.

God i sooo love them rear lights mate i want em lol ohhh wait iv got a pair im getting rid of lol....wouldnt mind them front lights tho lol

Shame them rear lights aren't rare so that people can't fit them and ruin cars!!!

If you decide not to break it Tom Iv got the here to repair.
Can be posted to.
Chris

It's worth more in parts Chris.... Plus why would I want another 306 when I have a 'lovely' Vectra anyway.

But seriously, after driving both the Vectra and 306 (with several bottles of water in the boot lol) for the last day or so I've realised I don't really 'like' either of them as a daily, I want something in between the two. Why didn't I just buy another MK4 instead of the Vectra lol, that'd've been ideal!

In other news, it turns out the steering issue was a dry top mount, it's completely seized now lol, spring is turning without the mount...oops.

So you like the awesome of the 306 and the big car with cupholders-ness of the Vectra? Have you considered a 406. Worst of both worlds lol.

If ya break it, can i bagsy the drivers door lock motor? if it works...

I don't drink in the car, I've never needed cup holders. And I don't like 406s lol....

Depends how much of a pain it is to get out. And yeah it works...electrically this car is perfect (amazing for 160k!)...but mechanically, no lol.

But I'll stick a breaking thread up in a couple of days probably.

Edit - Infact, I have some door motors from the estate....wonder if any were drivers door though, hmmmm.....

Shame your to far away tom. Id of took passenger rear from you.

I'd bloody hope so on a phase 3.

Tom if you break this please let me know, I could do with the airbag control module under the gearstick as i think my brothers is faulty.

Might take the blower unit too as i think mine is on its last legs.

Let me know anyway.

It WILL be broken, just not sure when yet.....thinking of a plan for a week lol.

im interested in the whole mechanism mate just for the boot lol im sick of opening and locking mine with the key lol

rarer than a ralleye lol a few of these are knocking about my end, just fixed and sell it on tom

Oh, I spotted this yesterday Tom, thought you might like it...

[attachment=9341]

Wow 02 plate hatch!

An HDi in china blue, no less!

Meh, had 3 china's, bored of that now. I'd like an Astor tbh lol.

02 plate is good though!

Tom, what is needed to get it back on the road? Would you sell it complete?

No I wouldn't sell complete.

It would need a lot go back on the road tbh, all wear and tear parts (so stuff that wouldn't sell second hand, not a problem for a breaker) but a hell of a lot of them!

It wants at least rad and fans, top mounts, TREs, ball joints, 'box oil seals, various gaskets as both the exhaust and inlet are leaking a lot, engine mounts as it feels like sitting on a washing machine at idle lol.......and that's just to get it through MOT. Would also need bonnet, grill, bumper, slam panel etc.

So on a 160k car it's not worth the money spent on it when I know what I can get breaking it.

Decided to use it as a rolling advert for a week lol...cant drive it far but still....









People will be drawn in by the excellent rear lights.

Edit - It seems my camera likes moonstone about as much as I do....
