306oc - Peugeot 306 Owners Club & Forum

Just got this at the weekend

swapped it for my winter car saxo vtr....still can't decide whos better off from this deal?
75k, immaculate rust free car with quite abit of work gone into it, but was a cat c




for a totally stock....apart from the shocking wheels

s1 rallye






boot floor and under the drivers seat have been welded (by a moron by the looks of it!)
little bit behind a headlight, think it needs a drive shaft, 12mot,6tax

Saxos are evwrywhere
S1 rallyes will be worth money saxos wont

that was exactly my thinking, 106 needs work, but would go for more than the saxo right now, and will only increase....plus I've wanted one since I was about 12 haha

Yeah will always be worth more with.original engine too
So much cooler than wen everyone 16vs them

I don't see why people bother! 16vs seem abit pants from my experience! the 1.3 revs it's nuts off and sounds like a rally car!

16vs are good fun.
But nothing better than a little revvy 8v
That inlet makes them sounds nuts too

Needs rallye steels. Hope you keep a 1.3 8k screamer. Too many 16v s1's knocking about now.

God those wheels are gash arent they! Retro white cars ftw!

S1 106's for the win!

106 is smart!

Were you by any chance driving down the A12 the other day in this? Over took one and I'm sure it was this one! Don't see too many of these at all let alone ones on them bloody wheels lol

Ooooo rallye fwend! Brilliant car :-D

I bought some hub centric spacers from JJC rallying company (think they are owned by demon tweeks now) been on the car about 2 months, when I took them off to swap the saxo they have ALL fell apart! shocking quality, I've sent them back, rather not mess around with spacers....and always loved rallye steels

Rallye steels ftmfw

what a little beast! Saxo was a clean example but the 106 was definitely worth the swap, good choice mate.

I like the look of these, as they more sporty over the 106 s2 front end.
just needs a few things sorting out that's it, but remember its clocking on nearly 20 years old. so your are going to have a few bodges and niggles.

rallye steels on deck!....FINALLY!

ordered these off "pugplus" if anyone remembers him? now selling on ebay under another name SHOCKING service, took over two weeks of "they've been posted"...."oops forgot" for them to finally arrive!! AVOID

Had a full service, tappets done, cambelt cover fitted, ditched the wheels for a temp vtr ones

This weekend fingers crossed, have a big to do list

gti rear beam
coilovers
new hubs
gti front breaks
new bottom arms
new engine mount as mine went boom!
new thermostat as car runs cold a feck!

should be a brand new car then!

it will be after all that! the mot tester wont fail it for a while!

They always find something

what a nightmare this is! Peugeot stafford managed to send out the wrong bottom arms and drop links....so hopefully be all on and on its arse sometime in the week!

just a few little bits of rust to sort then and it's a minter again

the tester gave my car a right stiff test, and said sort this list and we will pass it,
since then the MOT tester wont fail it, even has a bit of a play with the car too, if they are not busy.

where abouts in Stafford are ya?...I grew up there!

pretty

finally looking like one of my cars....haha



bit of a nightmare...pretty much assumed most things would be the same as a s1 vtr...far from it, more like a 205

spent a bomb on it in the passed week

strut top mounts and bearings
2 front wheel bearings
coil overs
2 new bottom arms (they haven't been changed since new!!)
drop links
new engine mount and buffer
106 GTI breaks on the front, refurbished 106 GTI rear axle
had to change the handbrake set up to that of a 106 gti!
new thermostat as someone had ripped the old one to pieces
s2 rallye steels...was too bloody low to fit under the rear arches, so needed fit some 175 tyres, just clears now

drive great now! no knocks, bangs, amazed how much better it seems to handle than the saxo! steers with it's arse end like a proper pug too!

All thats on the to do list now is

2" pugsport
new stickers
little bits of rust to touch/tidy up
ENJOY IT!

Sounds good!!!

Looks better too on the steels...shame they yellow though

May find the back end a little skittish with those 175s

yeah it likes to steer from the rear...but isn't that what old french shit does??

Looking good dude. You've done everything that's on the to do list on mine aha

it does and doesnt, all depends on setup really. and how much you left foot brake!

but not much point encouraging it!

Must be sweet to drive though with all that work done
