Peugeot 309 HDi 16v

I'll chuck up an update to this.

It went to FCS, I know its no show piece but was using the show date as a deadline to have it on the road, out the shed etc. Few people interested in the relic which is nice.

So...studs in the turbo



'ring' to bolt and weld to.



A little close to the M/C - need to re route a brake line



Myself and Frosty had fun and games with the N/S driveshaft one evening, evolved into a complete hybrid



But now it fits



Empty bay…splodged some paint over the front side bits and where the battery sat



Fresh radiator finally arrived so engine in on mounts and offered up – ignore the small cooler



Enough gap to run the cooler pipes



Original brakes vs. DT 266s




Piping shiz up and catching the bumper on




Downpipe in progress



And bolted up



Then lack of photos but basically got it together and fired up. Few test laps of the field and down the industrial estate.

Only wheels I had at the time to hand



Looks out of place but got to combe without an issue



And got back without a hitch too



So treated it to an oil and filter change



Been driving it since the weekend each day and drives rather well for an old nail. Got two track rod ends and a wheel bearing to do at the weekend.
