As most know my ph1 kingfisher dturbo was regrettably sold, due to being too small and unpractical for me having two littleuns, so estate was really the only way to go. I was always going to stay 306 obviously.
Anyway picked up a 2001 '51 meridian estate in bianca white (cheap tax ;))
Paid 255 quid for it off ebay with Short Mot and short tax needing a new beam
Thanks to Mike B for the lift up to Bristol for it. Drove 100odd miles back trouble free pretty much, steering felt floaty. I soon realised when home it had 10psi in one tyre and a track rod end was excessively fooked!
Bought an ecu of here with a stage 1 pro steve map on it. Made it pull really well compared to standard, still convinced a stage 1DT On a bosch pulls better mind. Hdi defo drives nicer daily though.
Fitted a beam and some new brake pipes got me an mot ;)
Pics next day
Few after fitting some alloys (why didnt the late meridians have alloys?)
Lows
So yeah as you can see its wayyy to low. Shocks bought off ebay as 50mm
And from a gti6. Different springs are on order
Its.off tomoro to have some window tints done too ;)
Thanks for looking
