Well.... its been almost 6 months now and the right 306 hasnt turned up for me to buy. I was hoping to see one today but I rang to confirm our arranged viewing and it had already sold but he didnt think to tell me before I set off on a 200 mile round trip. For anyone who doesnt know what im looking for is a Phase 3 Diablo in either 1.8 XS or GTI spec. Seem to be lots of black ones but i have lots of diablo spare parts so was hoping to get a diablo so i could use my stack of parts. Anyway seeing as I havent found the right car and show season is upon us it isnt going to take a lot to get the 1.8 on the road. When I say not a lot... with a month to go.... its quite a lot! Ive been collecting parts so got a lot to do!
