Chris you are not going to like this... (Disclaimer-I've not read the full thread)
Keep this as you special car a) it's thirsty with a lead boot and b) keep the miles off it
Restore this classic back to completely standard, wheels refurbed std colour etc. treat it as puglove does his 6, your car is an investment and will go up in value as it will be as it rolled off the factory. Collectors go crazy for this shit...
Keep the estate and go mental tuning it, get your idle hands on the state and not the rallye
Are you sure you haven't read the thread as thats pretty much whats happening. Shes only got 85k on her and I'd like to keep it low. She is largely gonna get restored to original bar a couple of choice mods like some cams and braided brake lines.
serious mate, I was on the iPhone, saw the pics and couldn't be bothered to scroll down
nice car fella, mucho jealous

Chris, if you cam it you'll rag it (and destroy it's value). You know it's true, so don't try and deny it. Either keep it standard or mod it, you won't be able to do half a job.
Put down ebay for starters, i know you've just been clicking on interesting looking things out of nosiness, but step away from the buy-it-now button!

When I bought mine back from mot station after it had been tracked. I took it for a bit of a drive, it felt like a new 306! Engine and gear box was so nice!
RE: GOT A RALLYE!!!!!!!!1111!!one1!!1eleven11!!!!!!!!!! - Matt-Rallye - 04-04-2014
Yeh that doesnt happen when i drive mine
But thats why i have brought a HDi
as using the rallye as a daily isA) Bankrupting me in fuel, tax and parts
B) Ruining the car
C) Takes the fun out of owning it if im dependant on it being 100% reliable.

My GTi-6 has done 78k. Bought it with 62k on the clock iirc.
Tbh, I've driven nicer 100k+ ones.
Whatever you do, don't mod it. You'll regret it. I wish I'd left mine stock as tbh, I hate driving it now. Noisy, uncomfortable, impractical, difficult to drive, and slower than my Astra over anything but perfect roads.

Thats the reason why im thinking of just keeping mine close to stabdard as possible. I was going to track spec it.

Either keep it standard or mod it, you won't be able to do half a job.Its a rallye, its getting ragged (when up to temp and safe to do so obviously). Already spent £300 on the bay of E but all stuff for the rebuild rather than mods. I do think there's a case for few tasteful mods especially mild cams as 167bhp isn't enough and a well screwed together rallye with dyno sheets to prove power is always gonna be a winner.

Shes not getting stripped slammed or smashed with a hammer though as I hope shes gonna be an investment.

You old git, I love my stupid slammed estate with no PAS and its not a impractical as everyone would like to claim. My 306 is practical easy to drive, comfy and quick on anything but speed humps and pot holes.
That said the rallye has to stay largely stock as its an investment. hoping in 10 years she'll be worth enough to buy me a kit car, already going up in price.

Article in a mag I got about classic hot hatchbacks, apparently the rallye is to be a future classic. Personally I don't see why but if you want I can scan in the article and post it up/pm?
RE: GOT A RALLYE!!!!!!!!1111!!one1!!1eleven11!!!!!!!!!! - Niall - 04-04-2014
Can sort of see it as they are becoming rare but its never going to see the status of the 205 gti
RE: GOT A RALLYE!!!!!!!!1111!!one1!!1eleven11!!!!!!!!!! - Poodle - 04-04-2014
I think you've just proved my point there, Chris.
Don't see why not Niall, meant to be the last decent peugeot (performance-wise) and it's a lot rarer than the 205 gti.

Indeed Steve but thy have to factory standard for a collector to buy it and that's where the big bucks are...having cams is classed as non std so played with.
Look at a series 1 RST, a mint std one is worth thousands, a played one a few k
RE: GOT A RALLYE!!!!!!!!1111!!one1!!1eleven11!!!!!!!!!! - Dum-Dum - 04-04-2014
Steve can you scan the article for me please.
I reckon there is a good chance these will be worth more than the 205 GTi due to the rareness and the 205 rallye has a tiny engine so isnt as desirable. also the 205 and 106 rallyes ere built in greater numbers. look at a the ph1 clio williams, only a few hundred made and cost big bucks now.

Sorry mate but there's more chance of me getting pregnant than you keeping that Rallye for 10 years.

Classic cars are a funny thing as an investment. Generally, as a car gets older it will go up in value after a certain point. The rarer, more iconic a car is, the more it'll go up. At the moment the market is very inflated since the recession because people have decided to put money into classic cars rather than ISAs with piss poor interest rates, so everything is stupidly expensive. I feel sorry for blokes who've spent 60k on E-type roadsters that will be worth 20k in 2 years when the economy recovers. However buying a potential classic can't really fail, I'd bet money that you'll make money on a Rallye in 10 years, but I don't think you'll see the 5k+ that 205s are going for, because they'll drop in price when the classic car market crashes like it does every 10 years or so.
