Welcome along, always nice to get new members from overseas! Yours looks like a pretty good base to start from, have you got any plans for how you want it to end up? Or are you keeping it as a sensible daily driver?

Show off.

this is the car when i buy it


The last week i change the Logotype, put on the skirts ( i dont know if this is the correct word) and painted the mirrors.
when i wear out the wheels i probably mount the XSI wheels, change the suspension for a bilstein/eibach, and wait for new ideas for the inside.
Im really sorry if my english is so bad

Tengo means "I have". This exhausts my Spanish.

Apparently, according to google translate, it also means "I am".

Looks like the bodywork has seen better days, but with a bit of love and attention, should be easy enough to repair. Good to see you ditched those "interesting" wheel trims though, and by xsi wheels, i assume you mean these:



Sounds like you've got some good plans anyway, might as well get a project thread up as well, so we can track your progress.

Oh, and don't worry about your english, you seem to have a better grasp of it than a majority of english people!

Yes , those wheels, and probably this week i paint the black wheels i have now. I think they will be better in white , and i will paint the defense in black matte, the originally black is a bit worn.
You think is better if I continue this on a Project thread?

We are indeed probably one of the most active 306 forums there is.

When you say "logotype", i'm guessing you mean the badge? In which case, I think there is one other that has a badge coloured similar to yours, though his is the later design, can't think who it is off the top of my head though....might have a quick root through the projects and see if i can find him.

Not too sure on the black grille myself, but its more about what YOU like, as its your car at the end of the day!

Yeah the badge, its a bit difficult remember all the "specific concepts" thanks

I cant wait more and i paint the wheels!

Oh yes, that looks good! Fair play to you mate!

I make many changes in the car this week , i'm really happy with the results ^^

Looks really good on the white steel wheels!!!
I also have a ph.1, if you look in my project thread you'll see a bit about how I made the headlights shiny again, it really freshened up the front of the car. Your headlights are going a bit dark like mine were. You can buy the indicators brand new for about 6 pounds each, and you can easily open up the headlights to clean the black oil out of them and make them shiny again with reflective tape or chrome spray or something. I used reflective tape as that is the easiest!

Welcome along, car is getting better and better.

Sorry my english is bad , and i dont know if you are talking about the fog lights ore the big fronts?

The big ones the reflectors behind the glass goes dark over time you can remove the headlight glass and use either spray or reflective tape to make them nice and shiny again it may also improve your headlights at night too.

No problem. I mean the big fronts. You can take the glass off and clean them and use shiny tape or chrome spray paint to make them shiny again.

The indicators on the sides (the ones that flash orange when you turn) can be bought new for very cheap as well, so the whole front lighting is new and shiny for cheap.

Hello and welcome

Thanks Sam

Since last week im searching for a suspension, i search specially for bilstein and eibach, but i find a kayaba completly new for a really good price and probably a 2 apex for a really good price.

ITV over here is called MOT, and it isn't anywhere near as strict! As long as the light is the right colour and heads in the direction it should be fine.

Two pics of the kayaba

You aren't putting it on anything that changes the aim or reflection of the headlights so it *shouldn't* be a problem.

When you open the lights you will see that it is just the surround that goes dark and bad that needs doing and not the actual headlight reflector.

I really dont know if i whant a clean look on the lights or a dark  look like this

i have a lot of doubts

Spanish works same as French in that respect...

J'ai 22 ans = I have 22 years = I am 22 years old

Same as..

Tengo 22 años

EDIT: What Sam said means "I have 22 anuses" - lolz - you need the squiggle above the n of años otherwise it doesn't quite mean what you intended.
