RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - Toms306 - 01-01-2013
Lol, I also can't be without a wiper, but then again, with the roads being covered in shit and mud round here and some odd air effect that blows literally evertything from underneath onto the back window (sure the hatch wasn't like that!) then a ten minute drive sufficeintly coats the rear window enough to not be able to see a thing. As well as 'starring' following drivers headlights which is horribly glaring.
But thats ok fcos I can use the side windows, oh wait, its French, the blower motor wont work so the windows are steamed up too.
Still have the wing mirrors I guess if I open the windows....oh wait, no, the heaters dont work in those so they're covered in condensation too.
Reversing a big estate with no visibilty anywhere is interesting tbh.
However it's my opinion that I need a wiper - not that everyone does lol. However its also my opinion that if someone can't see a bright white reverse light, hear a rattling clattering HDi engine or can't even see a large object coming towards them they should probably not be walking through car parks anyway!

MTFU, my estate has plenty of visibility compared to my Transit...

I guess the blower motor works in yours then? Its amazing how little you can see with everything steamed up, even with the window down joining a motorway is a bit dodgy!
I've also got a feeling theres a nice big rusty hole in my boot judging by the fact the rear area is literally always steamed up, but meh, if I don't look for it then it's not there right...

You are a true grade A cock. Are you ever wrong?
?!?!?!?!????!??!!!!?!?!?!?
my first grade A....yay :-)
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - Dicky - 02-01-2013
I had limo black windows, no wiper and 3 months of soot on my dtub and could see out the back fine?
OT:
Love to see you drive that over here..
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - Toms306 - 02-01-2013
How couid you possibly see fine though all that shit?
I had limo tints once, absolutely hated reversing in the dark with zero visibilty and never had them again lol.

If they are stupid enough to walk behind a reversing car then they deserve it. Also how often do you reverse at a speed where it would actually be dangerous

Erm, I might have hit someone parked behind me when I though there was noone there and was reversing round the corner.
Got out and had a look, couldn't see any damage, drove off. Got a call the next day, a colleague was at a job for the guy whose car I hit
Thankfully just popped the grille out the bumper and was an easy fix, but talk about embarrassing haha

Jaysus, way to spam a mans thread lol.
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - C.A.R. - 04-01-2013
Love the irony of having a 'Koni' springs sticker slap bang in the middle of the rear window on a car where the suspension appears to have collapsed!

Think il change the tittle of this thread to "rear wiper or no rear wiper?"
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - aaron_one - 18-01-2013
I love this car, id love to have mine that low but daily ride
. Smaller wheels FTW, f#@k the nay sayers its about tailoring your car to your taste, I wouldn't ever get a set of cyclones and be lowered to 40mm like most you see on the road
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - HDIkyle - 18-01-2013
I couldn't help but notice your lack of working suspension. Can I interest you in some handling and style to correct it?
On other cars that look works but I'm afraid 306's just do not pull it off, never have, never will
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - sam - 18-01-2013

if you were used to driving a van mate you'd realise, they are not needed if you've got some skills, i haven't knocked any kids down yet and been driving vans longer than cars . .
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - rd070707 - 27-02-2013
this car got some grief for its looks, i like it maybe bar the extreme tuck but at the end of the day its his car everyone needs to realise some people hate the way your car is lowered 40mm because you think it looks silly any lower lol. its all about your perspective tbh, to each their own
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - MissTap_GTI6 - 27-02-2013
I really like it! Mud flaps and eyebrows
Maybe the gti and I should move to Ireland??
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - puglove - 27-02-2013

My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - MissTap_GTI6 - 27-02-2013

And the mud flaps..? Come on, admit it!
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - puglove - 27-02-2013
The mud flaps were offered as a factory optional extra i'll have you know lol
Its UK mainland felt spec. Not so extream lol
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - MissTap_GTI6 - 27-02-2013
I'm getting mud flaps for my Diablo so I think along with the eyebrows; it's going to look more Irish than UK mainland spec!
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - puglove - 27-02-2013
Im not even going to comment on the eye brows lol
RE: My Baby Blue 306 D Turbo - Eeyore - 27-02-2013
