After a year without a 306, bad bad times, I have picked up a new one, and I love it 
Friend of a friend (Mitch) in Cannock has owned it for the past 3 years
XUD of course, already lowered, 206 180gti brakes 205 1.9 speed lines, and 3'' turbo back exhaust, no boxes, sounds good! Potential MoT problem though.
It's on Lucas and a T2, goes well for the lack of engine work. It's only got front seats at the moment but that will soon change!
Anyway pictures:

Got a few things planned for this some subtle changes and bigger long term plans 
Comments/ideas appreciated.
Loving being back in a 306
And thanks to Mitch for taking me to pick it up

To be fair I think it looks pretty sweet Wheels just need spacing, epic lows are fine in my books, I just cant tolerate epic lows and 3 cm gaps between arch and wheel width ways, looks silly
If you spaced those rears out, it would instantly look much more rude!

Thanks Darren! Spacing the wheels is a good idea! Where do you get spacers from? eBay? And by how much do you think?
Think raising It 30mm on the back and it will look spot on

back needs to be a bit higher but yeh looks good. I didnt think it was safe to run harnesses on standard seats?
