306oc - Peugeot 306 Owners Club & Forum

As most know my ph1 kingfisher dturbo was regrettably sold, due to being too small and unpractical for me having two littleuns, so estate was really the only way to go. I was always going to stay 306 obviously.

Anyway picked up a 2001 '51 meridian estate in bianca white (cheap tax ;))
Paid 255 quid for it off ebay with Short Mot and short tax needing a new beam
Thanks to Mike B for the lift up to Bristol for it. Drove 100odd miles back trouble free pretty much, steering felt floaty. I soon realised when home it had 10psi in one tyre and a track rod end was excessively fooked!

Bought an ecu of here with a stage 1 pro steve map on it. Made it pull really well compared to standard, still convinced a stage 1DT On a bosch pulls better mind. Hdi defo drives nicer daily though.

Fitted a beam and some new brake pipes got me an mot ;)
Pics next day





Few after fitting some alloys (why didnt the late meridians have alloys?)






Lows







So yeah as you can see its wayyy to low. Shocks bought off ebay as 50mm
And from a gti6. Different springs are on order

Its.off tomoro to have some window tints done too ;)

Thanks for looking

I need a hdi estate in my life.

One of the nicer looking estates from around the time in my opinion.
406 is pretty boring in comparison

Bout time you got a thread started get some pics up tomorrow after the tints are on still a good bargain for the price you paid

Badass! Tints and slam'd!!

Forgot too add black masks went on today

Cheers buddy, appreciate it

Plans are tints, booked in tomoro at global tints
Raise the front a little
I want to go stage 2
Keep it looking clean i guess, its easy to go too far and make stuff look chavvy/crap

Love the stealths on it, subtle colour too.

I really like this, it's subtle.

Keep the roof bars btw, they look awful without them..

Again, cheers guys
Only had this a few weeks, and as it stands probably owes me about 500 quid all in.

Yeah defo keeping the roof bars, they look well odd without them

Good to see a project thread up for this. I look forward to seeing the out come of it with the tinted windows

There being done as we speak

White estates look well smart with tints!! Can't decide on my moonstone state not sure how it will look

Tints are done, very happy with how they look. Went for 20% film



Will sort a decent load of pictures this weekend hopefully
Thoughts??

Gets the thumbs up from Frost

Good. Now it needs the tops of the rear lights to be painted black and it will be perfic!

She's looking smart. Whats the current situation on the starting issue?

Looks good man. How much did the tints set you back.

So i fitted a new double relay (brown one) a different lift pump.
Cleaned all the earths on n/s chassis leg up front
And took apart the engine loom connections cleaned up etc
And touch wood shes behaving again now which is good

And bashbarnard tints were 174inc VAT so average price but considering theres 7 windows that have been done thats not bad. Came with a lifetime warranty too which was a bonus.
Company who done them were called global tint

I'm not usually a fan of tints on 306s but they look alright on the white estate tbf! Could do with a GTi splitter imo though...

Yeah maybe look out for a splitter at some point, need to raise the front up a bit first

I do like this may have to get my windows done. Its good that they are lifetime warranty with em. Got to agree with tom a gti splitter would really set this off. Love a white car

black masks do look good

Looking good for what little money it has cost, needs a zaust like frostys imo

Needs a blower like it too!

Looks wicked black and whites always a winning combination

Cheers for looking

Centre console looks sick mate, really like that! Looks like you're making good progress as well, keep it up!

Cheers buddy, lucky for me a mate has just started a business doing the hydro dipping so i had it done cheap

Really cool how its done and the finish is brilliant
