306 1.6 Tu5 2nd gear into third rolling start at 10mph
#1
Had one? How was it?
More fun than most modern cars or a big let down prompting an itch for a 6?? Or derv?

I'd imagine a big letdown leading to an itch for learning on how to use your gearbox properly.

Nah boys just had a bit of fun with a 58 plate s3 and couldn't stop laughing at the boy got raging in my mirror! As Matt said above these little things fly in the range mentioned and if you haven't had one then you don't know what I'm talking about!
As the OP says have you had one? How was it?
And no Johnny no drugs involved!
And rippthrough if it wasn't meant to be used they would have left 2nd gear in the factory lol

TU boxes are shite, can't even handle the power of a 1.4... lol

Thrashing a 1.8 through the 'box is a laugh though, plus they literally never break either. Big Grin GTi6s are quick and sound nice but get boring on the road as you're doing illegal speeds before you know it. Sad

If an S3 couldn't keep up with a 90bhp 306 the driver was terrible. Tongue

Yeah I'm guessing he grabbed a wrong gear too but funny as hell from where I was sitting!

Had the dude behind me for a mile round a few roads and coming to a overtake lane and I moved left and slowed to 10-15 for him to pass with no intention of racing, he slowed to the same forcing me back out so I pinned it and so did he, 4 or 500 yards later both lanes merge and I'm still there just in front of him and yes he was pinning it too, his lane dissapeared and he backed off, got through the round about and he ragged it by me on the wrong side of the road with finger held aloft so yes he was up for it!
It was a bit of fun and made me laugh but it really is surprising to some people in fancy new cars when they get shat on by a 20 year old French hatch!
I reckon you've all been there no?

No... Sad

I'm usually the impatient c*nt trying to get past than the one in front. lol

Not always though, sometimes I'm doing XXmph in the fast lane past the peasants when something nice comes up behind, I pull over and they shoot past as if I'm in reverse, was a new SLK yesterday lol, couldn't believe the way it picked up considering the speed I was already doing. Confused

This is why I like my HDI.. Had an S5 alongside me at the lights the other day. He won obviously, but I reckon we were doing 40 before he got his act together. The confusion and disbelief on the driver's face was hilarious!

I would never condone any form of racing / reckless driving on public roads!  TMI  Rofl

I was in 1st (place) lol
Nah but seriously I was coming down the box coming to a set of lights and they went green as I moved over to let him by so hadn't came to a stop, I hung back a few seconds and he did the same so I didn't have too many options other than go for it or stop at a green light!

old S3's aren't that quick anyway though, but will still rip a 90 bhp TU a new one, just as the MA box shits itself from being grannyshifted.

Booo hisssss I only asked a question lads,
If it was such a bad engine/ box combo don't you think the psa group might have given it a bye?
I've owned a few 1.6 tu's and only in 5 dr 306's until I bought my xsS and obviously it's more lively in a smaller shell like a 205 but as you all are members on here I'm pretty sure you realise the potential in a 3dr 306 and I've had a shed load of fun in my little green pug and as my 16th 306 I have to say its been a pleasure to own and drive! Long live my and any other 306 be it a daily workhorse or a weekend rip mobile! :-)
P.s. love my 1.6 TU btw FYI IMHO lol

My 1.4 raised more than a few eyebrows from the pisstakers a couple of times as I remember. Including a Rallye and a '6 at one point..... Rofl

If you enjoy it, f*ck the rest of 'em.
