From Swindon :) - Dan J - 10-04-2012
Hey guys, I'm Dan and i'm a member over at theywhoshallnotbenamed so i'm also coming over here.
I'm from Swindon, I have a Delft blue peugeot 306 1.4 meridian. I know delft blue is a very rare 306 colour as it's actually supposed to be a 406 coloured car.
I'm only 17 so this is my first car, 1.4 5 door. Very cheap on insurance compared to other 1.4's i'm insuring mine for £1,125/year which isn't bad! I'm hoping to get a ph3 dturbo as soon as I a job since the insurance is only £400 more a year!
My meridian has only had one change and it's that I've put cyclones on it.
Anyway that's my intro!

Welcome along, as said above, get some pics up! I'm also interested in the colour, as my first 306 was a ph3 China 1.4.
Also, ph3 dturbo would be an hdi surely?

Re: From Swindon :) - Dan J - 10-04-2012
Haha, just wrote out allot of stuff to realise I already have a picture of my car online haha.
Edit: Is there anyone else from Swindon on here? Really want to do a local meet because I've not been to one yet, I a however all booked up for FCS first one for me!
There is so much stuff I want to do with my car but i'd rather get a dTurbo then modify that, none of this chavy bollocks though.
Here it is:

China's paint code is 'EGE'
Delft's paint code is 'KMP'
It's definatly Delft.
Re: From Swindon :) - Toby - 10-04-2012
I think different websites give alternate information sometimes, KMP was supposed to be Rhodes Blue O.o
Edit: Just checked, Delft Blue uses the alpha code M1PK
Re: From Swindon :) - Kimmie - 10-04-2012
It does look china, but may be different in the flesh!
There are a couple of people from that general direction, be it somehwere near Stonehenge or Bristol
Shame, we had a camping meet just by Stonehenge at the weekend you could've come to! Next time

Welcome to the forum
Out of interest, did you book FCS on the 306oc stand? If so, stick your name down on the list in the FCS thread (in the meets section) and have a quick look over our thread about camping for the weekend leading up to the show.
Re: From Swindon :) - kingy - 10-04-2012
have a look on top of the suspension strutt, i think thats where the paint code is.

Yeh, I was told to look there before but there's no sticker. Also someone said something about the boot so had a look around that but still couldn't find anything.

Nope, I finish college at 8pm on Mondays..Let down!
I'll take a look under the carpet.
Thanks guys!
Re: From Swindon :) - samass - 19-04-2012
welcome mate!
in the boot, you'll find a pressed plate with the VIN and other stuff on it, the paint code will be on there too. as you look in the boot, its on the back panel underneath the boot catch, youll have to hang your head up side down to read it, but its there! and if you can decipher that, then kudos to you!
