Gem's 1.9 D Turbo
|
Swapped my golf for this and so far really liking it, it's not a bmw I know but it's good on fuel.
It's a 1.9 D Turbo.  What I've done - Added dirt  ![[Image: 569005dd0fdb0561fc2eb2b8d51c0c04.jpg]](http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/08/29/569005dd0fdb0561fc2eb2b8d51c0c04.jpg) ![[Image: 2d89853775af5287039eb9d1784d305b.jpg]](http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/08/29/2d89853775af5287039eb9d1784d305b.jpg) ![[Image: 33fda9ab9d094d8a7ebbfe2ac345d012.jpg]](http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/08/29/33fda9ab9d094d8a7ebbfe2ac345d012.jpg) Treated it to smoked indicators so swapped them over [emoji14] ![[Image: a2eb280975cbd8b5b90c2c40bc1c1549.jpg]](http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/09/02/a2eb280975cbd8b5b90c2c40bc1c1549.jpg) ![[Image: 24e1c9f88118107bca3e5c5c74970e3c.jpg]](http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/09/02/24e1c9f88118107bca3e5c5c74970e3c.jpg) ![[Image: 3931b50d4edc4f03ab2d324c52e4e49e.jpg]](http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/09/02/3931b50d4edc4f03ab2d324c52e4e49e.jpg) Waiting to get the front springs on & it's getting lowered on Friday.

Ford fitment wheels will fit, but you'll need spigot rings to do so. Cant remember the exact dimensions off the top of my head, but im sure someone will be along shortly to put me straight!
 As for smoked rear lights...they dont look smoked to me, unless you mean the bottom section, which is "smoked" as standard.  Looks like a good base to start from though, keep us up to date!

Goodbase. Those rear lights arent smoked though...well not as far as I can see.
Ford wheels do fit...need 20mm (iirc) Spacers and a centre bore adapter...or all in one adapter. Wishes for more power...

I didn't realise they came as standard now, years back my mate had to buy them for his lol

You can get chromed side indicator bulbs which will stop the side repeaters looking like eggs

A very nice base for you. What are the plans?
Respray, wheels and lows.
Not a a fan of 'chrome' lol, but then 306's are a whole new world as mostly had german cars.
05-09-2014, 03:00 PM
You'll be amazed at how much cheaper everything is but surprised at how often you have to keep doing the same jobs. That's how I find it between my mk3 Golf and my 306 anyway.
05-09-2014, 07:35 PM
Same coulor as mine nice lol love theses wee cars great running car too :-)
05-09-2014, 07:43 PM
Yeah I've already noticed the price difference as the last 4 years has mostly been bmws lol, the lack of wheels bugs me though as can't find anything dishy

So yeah, as i said in the other thread before closing it, whats the thing down the windscreen? Is it meant to read something, or is it just a pattern?
16-09-2014, 07:48 PM
It says Players if you read it from the bottom upwards

May have to be sweet with the MOT man to get that sticker through the MOT sweep test!
Going for a respray...big financial commitment that, what colour you thinking? Wishes for more power...
16-09-2014, 10:13 PM

Not sure atm, got a ideas.. Will be using graffiti paint

yesss! How low are you going? D: Hope they are doing it the right way!
19-09-2014, 12:12 PM
Lolben is referring to chromed bulbs, they match the "smoked"colour of the side repeaters so they don't stand out so badly as when you put normal orange bulbs in.
