Well, I've got another one. The beigemobile was only ever temporary, could never have seen myself doing much with it to be honest other than butchering it for it's Bosch pump. Massive thanks to karl1989 for taking me to pick it up early on a Saturday morning
I got it off a lass in Oldham, £460 with 9 months MOT and 6 months tax, 93k, some unusual 406 alloys, a mint interior and a decent Sony stereo. It drives perfectly except for a loose joint in the steering column and crap tyres which are the wrong size. Both bumpers are scuffed and there's some slight damage on the OSF corner to the bonnet and wing that could be easily sorted. Pulls like a monster even with just a tuned Lucas!
Plans:
- Gov-modded Bosch with ground LDA
- TDO4
- Straight-thru and decat
- FMIC
- 40mm
- Speedlines
- Phase 3 bumpers and crystals
Opinions?
Looks a good 'un and your plans sound good.
Are those wheels 14"?

I think their 15s, haven't really looked. I'm actually quite tempted to get some decent tyres on them and give them a quick spray of graphite grey, never seen them on a 306 before...
They're pretty nice wheels IMO they're off a 406 stdt...
looks like a good base for your plans, maybe you'll MOT this one?
Yeah I'll be keeping this a while

How long's a while? 3-4 months?
looks ood though bud needs more smoke though!
Keeping it at least a year
You already got the de-cat
.
Yeah true! I'm really feeling these wheels you know...
Get them painted up. Nice and shiney
Hmm, shiny freshly-painted wheels do equal happiness...
Looked very tidy mate and them miles are good.... its hardly been broken in
looks like a great buy for the money
the plans you have for it sound good to id keep the wheels on there never seen them on a 306 before shame there not 15" though
Looks like a good base mate!, have a word with mr cheese about his td04 don't think he's got the minerals to fit it after seeing mine go bang
Cheers guys. And ash, I think they are 15s...
Nice mate, its a steal at that price, real nice base
, Yeah keep the wheels get the sprayed see how they look once that's done.
Might just give them a quick going over with a rattle can and see how they look, I'm thinking graphite or maybe bronze?
Pretty sure the ginger streak of piss (Ruan) had those for a while, and they were 15s IIRC
Tidy wheels, and a relatively tidy motor there!
To be honest I'm surprised at how good it is, £460 isn't a lot for any car with 9 months test and 3 months tax but a fairly tidy, sporty diesel that drives near perfectly...
I sold my phase 1 sigma DT for about the same and that was a shed

Yeah, I can't imagine 406's having 14" wheels? That'd be like 13"s on a 306...

ha ha you fcuker
. . . it's not that mate i've got some other concerns atm, pretty sure i will still be fitting it, maybe after winter now though . .
Nice buy dude. Looks pretty tidy
Gave it a good clean today, and also a nice, smoky Lucas tune, took a video of the 30-70 but I can't get it to upload. Boosting 19psi with no issues, pulls like a monster! It'll keep me amused until I take my Bosch pump down to Norfolk to see Dan! after xmas
take it you got the turbo gauge in
