All good points above, but they ignore the fact that Steve's a tart. :p
In seriousness though, i don't think your reasons are adequate dude. If a client's going to turn you down on the basis of the car you drive, they're probably going to be a pita to work for anyway, the car will be doing you a favour lol. Also, if you're going to be buying something else, set aside another 50% of the purchase price for immediate repairs - it's usually at least partially necessary and it's better to be prepared, than the other way around - spending everything on something only to find a fundamental problem which you now can't afford to fix.
Personally i'd stick to the 306 until you can afford to run something newer mate, reliability is essential when you start work. Much as i'd enjoy tinkering with a DV6.
