Happy birthday cars :)

14 years today I picked up my brand new 306 Dturbo.



The V5 turned up for my estate the other day to find that was registered on the same day as my hatchback two years after.

My old 1.8 was first registered in november 1999. Cant remember the exact date (28th springs to mind) But my GTi was also registered on exactly the same date lol

[DeeTurbo]

Haha, what are the chances.

Had the car since new then? That really is impressive!

Think you deserve a metal for keeping it that long

Whats the milage ?

[Danny2009]

14 years! That is seriously living for the 306 mine last 4 month if I'm lucky lol

[Toms306]

Whats the milage ?

It's something like 318k lol!

Just goes to show, the number of previous owners says more about a car than it's mileage!

All the information, can you get this for the pugs?

Wow! that's some info.

I think you can get most of that from the build code.

Did you buy her something nice?

Was going to give it an oil and filter change but I left that car at work and bought the dust bin home to get sorted.

Yep, I'm on 316k I think.

It's so true about the number of owners. The closer it comes to the time to sell a car the more things like services it misses and little jobs get canceled as they don't want to take on the extra pay out. The best example is my dad, he never likes spending any money on his car. He always says "it doesn't matter I'll be selling it soon."

I just wish I didn't crash it, little things that weren't repaired properly annoy me.
