Peugeot 306 1.4 LX - KrisCampbell - 28-02-2013
Just new to the forum, will hopefully be posting some modifications that I've already completed, and others that will hopefully be soon to come! 113,700 miles on the clock, and still pulling strong (after a new head gasket and timing belt).
Just posting this phone picture for now, will get better ones up later.

List of things I'd like to do:
Lowered 40mm and 1 nick (reduce arch gap a bit!)
Mudflaps
Exhaust
Air horn
Wind deflectors
Windows tinted
?Wheels?

Welcome along to the forum, be prepared for lots of banter and "extracting of urine", we're a friendly bunch, if a little scatty!

Thanks! So far all I've done is change out the sound system for a set of 6x9's in the parcel shelf and two better 6.5inch speakers in the front. (Originally came with one speaker in the front, wondered why there was no sound from driver side!) Also had to fix the common fault of the electric windows not working, relatively quick wiring fix. LED sidelights in. Also had to fit new fog light bulbs, job and a half, up on axle stands, plastic crap out of the road and then tight squeeze to get the bulbs in and out.
Nothing in the way of modding it properly so far, just getting it to a nice standard state. ie cleaning the guff out of it, sealing up leaking areas (such as the aerial!). Got a few wee dents to try and pop out first, going to try DIY style with a plunger as they're only small and giving it some TLC, a woman owned it before me, and clearly she wasn't the best of drivers. Front and rear bumpers scuffed to pieces, so going to respray them in the better weather!
And yes, she is! Haven't seen that many about the same colour as mine, which is quite nice, unique.

Just a wee bit! Just ordered a sunstrip for it as well, should arrive at some point next week. Then probably move onto the mudflaps. Start with the cheaper things!

I haven't seen one the same colour as mine, in 4000 miles since I've had it. They're a rare breed. The wee 1.4 is surprisingly quite quick, my mate has a D-Turbo and he was surprised at her, was able to keep up with him round the country roads! Hope to see more pictures of yours!
RE: Peugeot 306 1.4 LX - Herby7 - 01-03-2013
There's only one other near me that i have seen that has a similar registration as well. Yh i think its quite nippy for a 1.4 .

welcome! Better to lower the rear beam properly than the nick method!

Another wee picture of her I took today, just after giving her a wash. Need to get the dent out of the front right wing still however!
