Hi everyone thought i'd eventually join up,
Well i'm Austin, from cambridge, on 23 but I got my first 306 at 17 and no collection has grown from there...
I've just brought an S16 (
), all standard at the moment, a couple of issues I need to iron out (electrics & head gasket) but planning GTI manifolds with cone filter, lowered, maybe 206 GTI 17"...
My first 306 is a ph1 1.4 SPI, this has been through the wars!! its indestructible, its been through, 3 head gaskets, had 2 engines, a few driveshafts, couple of body panels, a door, erm change the struts a few times and I cant remember the rest which means its now running on;
'00 Xsara VTS brakes, VTS gearbox (I was planning to swap the 1.4 8v for the VTS 16v engine, but then got the S16), its lowered and on cyclones with halo headlights, Ph2 rear lights, decat exhaust, and a bodge job induction kit
Then I also have a French ph1 XSI, this was going to be a parts car for my 1.4 as unfortunately it was involved with a crash, I was going to use it for the bumpers etc but then the S16 has changed that...
And finally the last car I own is a 5.3ltr V12 Manual Jaguar XJS with a TWR body kit (previous owner) plans for this are to strip, and rebuild as a track day/collection show car...
I've done all the work and repairs on my 306 myself, so i'm reasonably experienced when it comes to doing jobs on them, if i can help i will but otherwise i'm here to learn as well!!
I'm proud in the fact I can whip off a driveshaft in about 15mins
I'll dig out a few photos later on
