Well we all know this car has a had a hard life, even more so since i got it! And yes, its falling apart now, it's slow, its uncomfortable, everything is stiff or clunky, it's not even cheap to run......but does any of that really matter? It looks awesome with a few subtle choice mods....and regardless of the fact the tyres are nearly bald, the tracking is a few 10's of mm's out and the wheel bearings are wobbly, it's still epic to throw around a B road - and no newer car will do either of those things anywhere near as well. So come on, this is it's last month on the road, let's give it a proper send off!

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Eeyore - 26-03-2013

haha the the zombie estate didnt even enter! winning!

London Dan - Not a fan of the totally smooth look
PE02KHG - Truly epic but dark wheels look a bit lost.
Toms306 - It wasnt the worst car ever... but best of luck with the new one!
Johnny - Lots of work has gone into it and I love the spoiler.
Cully - This is THE car for OEM+. Epic quality of work and I love the electronics projects.

So my vote goes to PE02KHG... because putting bucket seats and doing what he has done with an estate would have been laughed at a few years ago and its made it acceptable for us to follow suit. A lot of good quality estates are coming through the site atm which makes for awesome reading!

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Jonny81191 - 26-03-2013

Gotta be Cully's for me, lots of very neat ideas and overall I really like how it looks (needs more lowness though!)

Ian's comes in a very close second Big Grin

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - ozonehostile - 26-03-2013

man this is a hard one to choose!

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Curt - 26-03-2013

It was very close between Jonny's and Ian's for me... But that interior Heart

and the Grid's Heart

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - londondan86 - 27-03-2013

My Vote has to go to Cully.

Very clean car throughout including all the interior mods which he has done although not pictured. True definition of OEM+

Really annoyed the snow has stopped me taking some decent photos of mine though Sad

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - c.gerrard - 27-03-2013

At the end of the day, we are all chasing power..

And who's got the most of it on this list...

Jonnny.

He has my vote.

My vote goes to the missing estate... Pellowe

sorry i disagree!
yes i have upped the power of mine yes id like to push it farther
but I'm not going to IMO it makes them unreliable,
i bought my car as a family car which travels to work every day so i needed MPG space and Reliability and this car fill that gap quite nicely
I'm happy with the car as is

i know all cars have there faults this car is 10 + year old so has a few more than most
but thats give is character and i think that is what everyone on this site saw when they bought there 306

oh Jonny your car would get my vote if i wernt voting for myself Big Grin

purely on looks alone nice clean car

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Just Sean - 27-03-2013

everyone mods for different reasons though

As with Cully, I don't agree there at all!

I voted for Jonnys on looks more than power, he's managed to make an estate that I like the look of which is a hard task lol.

I can appreciate the work that's gone into Ians but it's just not my cuppa. Cullys is well done with all the electrickery inside, but it's still a bit too OEM outside for me, could do with a splitter, debadge doors and a drop imo. Rowells isn't really started yet let alone finished so it's not really fair to compare. And I'm afraid I'm really not a fan of white cars or smooth ones, sorry Dan.

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Dave26 - 27-03-2013

I've gone for PE02KHG, I'm a sucker for wide wheels, and that interior!!

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Dum-Dum - 27-03-2013

Cullys looks awesome on the track and ians is so un estate like but ive gotta vote for jonnys cos its one of my old cars.

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Just Sean - 27-03-2013

i thought they were all your old cars....

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Jonny81191 - 27-03-2013

Guys I think carl was taking the mick to an extent Big Grin

Re: COTM - Best Estate Voting - kentiiboii - 27-03-2013

As said.
I like cullys becuase its proper oem+ and stands out from the crowd for being so tidy.
Ian is awesome stands out because its really not what you expect from a estate.
Jonnys is really nice good power the mods hes chosen really suit it but I think silver is the most boring colour.
londondan its nice car love the smooth just dont think it's quite there.

So between ian and cully...
Think its got to be ians as it does look awesome can imagin it turning heads quickly

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - puglove - 27-03-2013

Again a very hard choice between Jonny & Ian for me , but Jonny gets my vote, just dont rate the grids in black Ian :/

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - devils_fuel - 27-03-2013

easy choice for me !!!

Cully has just fixed my airbag, wired in my boooost gauge and fitted my droplinks !!!!!

So cully gets my vote !

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - cwspellowe - 27-03-2013

f*cking LOL! I knew there was something I forgot to do. Ah well, wouldn't have wanted to win while i was in exile. Ironic thing is i've not even entered and it's getting talked about.

Erm, I have to vote for Ian's to be honest. Everyone knows baller wheels and a fat arse are what every 306 estate needs, and Ian's gets it just right. Yeah Jonny has a big turbo but I have bigger, so i'm not impressed ninja

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Eeyore - 27-03-2013

Which sad person thought that mine and Toms were worth a vote lol

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Kezzieboy - 27-03-2013

Ian's FTW, I'd been planning to but Rota Grid Vs on mine for ages until I saw them on his...having to think of something else now Tongue

PLUS that interior is epic winning.

Pity votes I reckon Tongue

Tbf, mine isn't bad in pictures! It's just on the road it was a let down haha.

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Birk - 27-03-2013

Still think mine should have been allowed in in its old form.

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Arron - 27-03-2013

Cullys, Johnnys, londonlads and PE02's are all epic in their own way. Pellowes is just plain bonkers

But Rowells has the most potential..so my vote goes to..

Tom

RE: COTM - Best Estate Voting - Eeyore - 27-03-2013

I cant believe a car that doesnt exist any more is beating me!
