Hello hoes! - C.A.R. - 08-03-2012

Well hello there.

I've never owned a 306 before. Are they any good? Or should I get a Citroen Xsara as aren't they basically the same thing only better built and with superior handling?

OK enough trolling.

Old-timer here. Bit of history -

1st Car = 1992 Vauxhall Nova 1.2i Merit Saloon
Miss this car a lot lol Was my first car and I could drive it all day easily (skinny tyres + no power steering) and it just went and went. Could park it anywhere too, there was no way anyone was going to nick it!

Ran it until some scrotes broke into it and trashed it.

2nd car = 1999 Peugeot 306 1.8 XS
This car was amazing for a first 'proper car' although it only had 112bhp it did look very nice.

As with all 18 year olds I modified the tits off it and when I was finished it looked like this -

That was at the chavfest which was ISTS at Donny!

Then bought a proper 306,

3rd car = 2000 Peugeot 306 2.0 GTi6

Notice I kept the wheels!
This thing blew up and in the pic above the car was pushed to that position. The ownership that followed the repair was also swift -

Less said about that the better. The airbags didn't deploy (hint: don't buy a CAT D car again)

4th car = 2001 Peugeot 306 1.8 Cabriolet
First proper girly car. This was the best example (I reckon) in the country. Was slow and boring to drive but had a full leather retrim and an electric roof, which even worked!

Mmmm!

That had to go in favour of something more fun. The girlfriend at the time (of 6 pain-filled years) actually left me, so I was free to get something stupid...

5th car = 1996 Eunos Roadster 1.8i S-Special Type II

Again, you can't own one of these without modifying it so it got the full treatment -

Sold it very recently looking like this -

Very, very reluctant sale :nope:

Then got all silly and bought my current steed, a 2001 Toyota Celica 190 (with the VVTL-i engine) which has served me very well, but it's proving too expensive to do 15,000 miles a year in whilst wanting to move out with my girlfriend. Looks epic though and is probably the fastest / most powerful car I will own for a while now...

So why am I here?

Basically I would like another 306, only this time a diseasel. Preferably 3 door but would consider a good 5 door. The main problem I'm facing is not being able to find many locally, especially with less than 100,000 miles on it. It needs to have less than 100k for me to convince my dad that it's a better choice than a 406, which is what he thinks I should buy!!

So if you're considering selling your 3-door HDi soon, give me a shout...

Welcome!

good luck trying to find one! HDI will probably have lower milage but more expensive to tune. Find a d turbo with a bosch and you can run veg oil and tune the nuts off it to produce 130-150 bhp

Welcome along buddy, get good at changing clocks if all you're doing is trying to convince your dad to buy one; my old dt warhorse was on 88k when I 11mmd it, I sold it more than a year ago on 113k and it's still going strong. dunno what mileage it's on now?

Couldnt handle the power..

Just to shut you up, IIRC, in short, on motorway/dual carriageway, car infront braked for no reason, crashed into central reservation, car written off!

But I think springs answer is more accurate TBH lol

Re: Hello hoes! - C.A.R. - 09-03-2012

You b*stards!

Yea was a combination of wet weather, a c*nt in an Astravan and incorrect observation of the rules when lift-off-oversteer takes over lol

Re: Hello hoes! - C.A.R. - 12-03-2012

Celica now sold! Went this evening for the sum of £2600 which isn't bad, still lost over £500 on it and spent over £1000 running it for the last 2 months alone so theoretically I'm saving money already lol

Unfortunately I can't find a decent HDi anywhere in 3-door form, so it looks like I'll be spending a bit more and getting a VW Golf instead! zzzz

Re: Hello hoes! - 4WayDiablo - 12-03-2012

eww! not a golf! anything but them... tom

Re: Hello hoes! - THE_Liam - 12-03-2012
