Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - Toms306 - 25-02-2015

Hi guys,

Not mine but owned by a mate (in fact the same guy that bought my diablo 106 NAD back in 2012).  Tbh I really want it and had thought about it after the '6 but can't justify it lol.  Its currently SORN and is located in Suffolk not far from Ipswich, he's quite keen to sell it as needing space.

2001 51 plate 106 GTi, 1.6 16v 3dr
126k
Bodywork is in good order apart from a few marks expected on a car this age
Interior is in great condition
Mods - Pugsport exhaust up to the manifold, lowered slightly but not stupidly low, black vtr wheels with plenty of tread on the tyres
8 months mot

£1200 ONO

If interested PM me and I'll pass on contact details, or he is also on 106oc if you're over there.

Cheers
Tom

Tom... since when did you have friends outside of 306oc?


RE: Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - Toms306 - 25-02-2015

I've known him since we were about 4... lol

Id love one of these!! All my money is going into my 2.1 arm though. Sad always wanted one though as a second car

Tom, buy it. They are EPIC cars, really regret selling mine Sad


RE: Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - Toms306 - 25-02-2015

I know Liam, I really do 'want' it but just cant justify it atm. They are on my list of 'cars to own at some point' though!


RE: Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - Iceman299 - 25-02-2015

I really love these, but the possibility of being in one in a crash puts me off! Not that a 306 would be much better i guess lol


RE: Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - Toms306 - 25-02-2015

Old Peugeots are all about as solid as tin foil in a crash... lol Only difference is you have more bonnet to get through in a 306.

Yeah i know lol i'm genuinely comtemplating getting something newer as a daily for that reason, especially as i have a wife and 2 brats. If it was just me, i couldn't care less. 


RE: Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - Toms306 - 25-02-2015

Yeah that's fair when you're carrying your family around. Smile

kentiiboii, this is either dick or harry.

I'd love a 106 as a daily, every time I get in my track car I just want to drive it everywhere haha. Swap for a black DT? Haha

Pah, it's all relative. For example, drive a 205 (or Procta's Metro) and by comparison a 306 feels like it's built like a tank lol

A late 106 isn't that bad from a safety point of view. Sure, I'd not like to hit a tree or something heavy like a 4x4 head on in one, but it's got some modern safety features in it and was designed with at least some vague thought to crash safety. To give you some idea, my other half hit armco at 70mph in her 106 (and a couple of years later rolled a Saxo at 40mph+) and she's still here to tell the tale.

Unsurprisingly with that sort of track record though in French hatches, I don't tend to let her drive my 205...

RE: Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - Toms306 - 28-02-2015

Nah it's in Woodbridge somewhere, not entirely sure where as he used to live in Shotley lol.

This. And for its time and sector it fits in to, the 306 was actually a very safe car. Not compared to modern standards obviously but you need to remember its now a minimum of 12 years old!!


RE: Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - Toms306 - 01-03-2015

But that's exactly the point isn't it.... As most cars on the road are a lot newer, the chance of hitting those and coming off badly is a lot higher than when 306s were new.... It doesn't matter how good they were new (though even then they weren't the best lol) but what matters now is how they'd stand up to impacts in todays traffic.


RE: Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - procta - 01-03-2015

tom you really do know how to sell Peugeots Tongue


RE: Diablo 106 GTi - Suffolk - £1200 ONO - Toms306 - 01-03-2015

Lol, just being honest, I wouldn't want a 106 as a family car...other people are free to make their own decisions and opinions, they don't have to agree with mine. lol
