I think the advantage we have on this forum, is while we all live for the 306, we understand that in the grand scheme of things, they're fairly shit. We all aspire to bigger and better things, whether it's just a small step up, or some supercar pipe-dream, for many the 306 is just a stop-gap car.
On a number of other forums, they see their particular make/model of car as the pinnacle of the automotive world, the car they always aspired to own, which makes them elitist and quick to flame any alternatives!
I disagree vehemently and in entirety.
However, I do not conform to your equally ludicrous stereotype of other car enthusiasts that a Peugeot 306 is 'the pinnacle of the automotive world' as you so elequently put it.
It would appear that for people to fit into your convenient little boxes their views must be one extreme or the other. The problem with you guys is that you seem to think it is a competition to undermine and put yourselves down before anyone else can, a sort of defense mechanism if you will to protect your fragile egos. Therefore, you like to call your pride and joy 'shit' so that you cannot be insulted by other people saying so. Quite sad.
My view of the 306 falls somewhere in between the two extremes that you perpetuate. The plans for my 306 are to own it for a very long time, modding it along the way. This is until I purchase an Impreza WRX at which time I will run my 306 alongside it (whilst modding), as a more economical and reliable vehicle, depending on whether I decide to tune the Impreza or not.
