low miles Estate . - daniel909 - 10-03-2015
Hello everyone thought I should put up a project thread
I have now got a 306hdi estate
The car is really good condition apart from both skirts broken and the passanger is scratched
The car has done 59000
This is the first 396 I have ever seen that still has an under tray
Plans
Passanger wing
Drivers fog light
Skirts both side - in the post need paintings
De grease the bay
Paint a few dash trims
Might go cyclones
Also stage 1 map
Da cat
Also 40mm lowering springs
Few pics

You'd think that, but mine is only on 58k, and it's a bit of a heap!
Get some pics up when you can pal, sounds like you've got some decent plans lined up, be good to see how you do with it.

It is a pretty clean car really the only think that let's it down is the side skirts and the passanger wing

Just picked up some 40mm gmax lowering springs [attachment=22123]
RE: low miles Esate . - WiNgNuTz - 10-03-2015
Good stuff! You sticking with the Lasers, or have you some other wheels in mind? Not sure they work very well in Black tbh, maybe be better in a dark grey colour, or white might look pretty good.
RE: low miles Esate . - Frosty - 10-03-2015
Good to see a project thread up mate and you back in a 306.

Well spotted that man, though mirrors are easy enough to spray yourself if you are that way inclined? Did mine in the boot of my estate!

I will stick with them for a min as they have good tyres ATM When it drys up a bit will get some better wheels for the summer
I had my seat Leon for sale for 800 in the and did a straight swap and he gave me a few spare bits

I love the humble 306 estate, I call mine 'the herse' but it goes like shit of a shovel with a few subtle mods and I can get the kids and all their crap in the crap in the back! Everyone's a winner!
