306oc - Peugeot 306 Owners Club & Forum

Hi guys guess who's back in a 306

even better its a 6 and astor,my brief was just to find a cheap 6/rallye and track it,but this came up and just had to have it,quite fancied a decent coloured one.

So atm I have paid a sizeable chuck of deposit and will be getting the car within the next 2 weeks.The pictures are from sale thread and previous add(car done 5k between owners)

The car unfortunately had Hg failure,not like I'm not used to that
but all smiles as my new engine is being picked up(literally by myself) Thursday.     Its has had  compression test,leak down and cambelt down not to shabby for £250

So that s going in after a good steam clean of the engine bay and lick of paint for the block and cylinder head.As my last project got abit mental this will definitely not (he says)so either going full track cage,buckets and harness s or go oe+ look but still do plenty of trackdays just less of a brutal look.I'm going see how nice the interior is yet though is a major ball ache and lots of flashing dash lights if I do.

Here s a list of the spec so far:
rich w roller bearing
miles solid rear beam mounts
miles gear linkages
ash s hybrid anti roll bar
omp strut brace
k&n induction kit
stainless steel braided lines
nissens rad
heko wind deflectors
black masks
rich w flywheel
rich w pulley
bm lower mount
lowered on eibachs springs  
So they's a far bit not included new clutch,cable,new driveshafts!!  

Time for some photo then
(from 2 adds but looks the same,plates are different as it currently on a private one atm)






Pretty awesome looks to good to strip,i ll actually see it with my on eyes in 2 weeks or so,get me time to paint the block and source a few more bits.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm yum!

Short answer is YES I have every intension to get back on track,but just wondering how extreme to go?

buckets seat everyday for 4 years then having a normal car is awesome until you get the rush to hoon it and find yourself hanging on it the wheel for dear life!!

Fast road look would be cool oem look but it handles like it's on rails and shifts

probably get some hispecs sorted with the money I saved,just got to get shoot of the cage,seats and harness s will sell quite easy thought ebay

Saw on Facebook the other day, looks a beaut dude!

Yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh maaaaannnnnn!


So glad to see you back! I miss your rallye man!

Astor friend!

Similar reg to Seans old one. Don't let it have the same fate eh!?
Looks spot on for the money man. Glad i didn't buy it now to break. Looks too good for that.

As above, nice to see you back in a 306 mate, and what a clean looking one at that! Always got time for an Astor 306, even if it is a perv.

Seriously though, looking forward to seeing what you do with this.

Cheers mate may have less to do as im leaning toward the oe look and get the suspension properly set it(nearly they)
as when the rallye was n/a though it was great on track for power but lacked in the bends and braking.

So far I have a few bits

kw v1 coilovers
21 torsion bars(not pictured)


Some lovely sticky ad048's and 16x7 1.2's




'3' cat back magnex(decat in the man shed somewhere..)

After a polish session


I have a shortshift aswell.

Hmm, I really do like Astor '6s for some reason, looks ace tbh!

Not so keen to see it being track spec'd as it looks so tidy but will have to see how it goes lol.

I've allways own black battered to shit 306, so this will be a pleasure surprise

Fingers crossed I can get it in to my mate garage in the next 2 weeks as heads already off it SHOULD be a simple engine out,engine in job.hopefully get it on the road early feb.

Got to decide engine, camcover, cylinder head, manifold paint colour aswell.

Gold like how im doing mine

Wrinkled red looks sick. Mine are wrinkle red

Cl did you just do 1 coat? Does it wrinkle when it drys?

Can we be expecting to see the rallye anytime soon? Wat needs fixing?

Cheers mate,can't wait torelativelyarted on it.should be turning up on a flatbed next Friday then can hopefully get the engine in the same day.Be nice to drive a relatively 'sorted' 306 see how good the roller bearings, mounts, arb and torsion bars are.

I've found a day at Snetterton on 26th of February, which all being well should be attending.
