Why do you own a 306?

[Razorback_Rob]

I remember a friend who was a year older than me and before I past my test we'd go for drives in his 1.4 p2 Diablo meridian. I loved the car really. Despite lack of cup holders . I passed my test and got a 207 for a bit and that was pretty neat till some ass wrote it off. Never taking out finance again although the other guys insurance covered the remainder, I'd spent 1700 on something I no longer possessed :/. Then I got myself a 1.4 phase 3 meridian in platinum silver and my friend got a 1.9 phase 2 green dturbo, by which time the 1.4 was becoming a mayo machine so I swapped for a 1.6 then quickly to a China hdi and from there between having a rover 25, Astra and a golf I've then had another hdi meridian before My current hdi dturbo. I just loved the drive of them. The handling. The pure ease of how the car seems to do anything to put a smile on your face. Oh and when I had an unfortunate accident avoiding a drunk cyclist on a single lane bridge in the middle of the night with no bright clothing and I'd ploughed into a telegraph pole to avoid killing him, I'd say they're pretty damn safe. (Even though it was luck that stopped me from rolling onto the train track below the bridge.
