Back in a 306 (China D Turbo HDI)
#1
Hey guys and gals,

Back in a 306 after my last one sadly went to scrapyard heaven due to rust!

Bought this with my father as a project / 2nd car - loving it already. Needs the brakes freeing off and a bit of rustproofing, but other than that it's pretty clean.

Trying to upload photos as we speak.

Cheers,
Matthew.

Edit: car is now for sale as I no longer have the time to use a second car, welcome to PM if interested.

China blue with cyclones ...good find as looks tidy. Best colour on a 306 imo.

The rust on my blaze yellow XSi is likely to be the end of it. Got half way thro repairing NS wheel arch before giving up. Just too big if a job for me so it's sat unused for several months. Sad. Need to get one of my other is on the road me thinks Itwasntme

Looks great!! Still believe pearl china blue is one of the best car colours there is. Matched with the angular shape of the 306 and a set of cyclones too...fantastic! Lost count of how many china 306s I had with cyclones and a 40mm drop... Big Grin Definitely had a few of 5 door Meridians, 3 door HDi DTurbo, 3 Door GTi6 and Meridian Estate! Big Grin

Cheers Tom! sits really nice as is and just had new springs recently, and looks as though the rear axle has been changed at some point as it seems to sit lower than you’d expect! Going to keep it standard and make it a good one. Nice little project / second car along with the Fiesta Tongue
