Hello - Nadine - 22-10-2012
Hey all
I'm Nadine, I'm new here, just purchased my 3rd pug 306. This time it's a black phase 2 GTI-6. Am I right in saying a black GTI-6 is rare? Anyways this is a project for me, it has a few things needing doing. And I will be asking for loads of help no doubt.
Here are some pics

Poor car had a hard life but plenty potential
RE: Hello - Curt - 22-10-2012
Welcome aboard
'6 looks like it could do with some TLC but nothing too bad... It's not an overly rare colour but it's a good one nonetheless.
RE: Hello - Nadine - 22-10-2012
Engine seems to have been taken care of. How often should u do the timing belt on these? The guy had it done 10k miles ago, with receipts to prove
RE: Hello - Curt - 22-10-2012
Should be good for another 20k, although depends how long ago it was changed... But I can't imagine it was long ago if it's only done 10k
RE: Hello - Scott - 22-10-2012
Welcome to the club
They should have the cambelt changed every 36,000 miles, though most people seem to go with 30,000 who know the cars. Some people have been unfortunate enough to have the belt snap at less than 36,000 so it's definitely a good idea to keep on top of it. It's also advisable to change it every 3 years regardless of mileage.
RE: Hello - Nadine - 22-10-2012
The receipts show late 2010 so happy days I'm good for another little while
I'm about to post in other parts of the forum for idea on how to fix what's wrong with her
RE: Hello - kingy - 22-10-2012
Looks shite mate. Needs a good clean and a good sort out but you knew this anyway. Plenty of peeps on here to help you out. Top bloke for getting a 6 though mate.
RE: Hello - Nadine - 22-10-2012
Thanks Kingy. She only cost me £200 and most of the issues are cosmetic that I can sort. Em I'm more a top chick than a top bloke but I knew what u meant
RE: Hello - Curt - 22-10-2012
That's a bargain to be fair, nice one
. Stick a project thread up to show your progress.
RE: Hello - Matt - 22-10-2012

Hello - RePT - 22-10-2012

RE: Hello - samass - 22-10-2012

RE: Hello - puglove - 23-10-2012

hello and welcome to the club
RE: Hello - StarBenn - 23-10-2012
Welcome.
Black and 3dr... That ticks my boxes! Sure it'll be alright when you've finished sorting it out.
RE: Hello - Smiley69 - 23-10-2012
Hey Nadine, welcome along for the ride!
Spent a fair bit of time in Rosyth and Dumfs last year, not to mention the amount of money spent on ale. A good night out, Dumfermiline that is!
Good luck with your project.
RE: Hello - MissTap_GTI6 - 23-10-2012
Welcome Nadine
RE: Hello - Nadine - 23-10-2012
Hey samass I live across the road from Sky in Dunfermline, practically Rosyth.
Pugluv, she is a bit rougher in the flesh
however went to pick her up today and she wouldn't star I'm hoping its coz she had no fuel, going back Friday so will find out
RE: Hello - dave1221 - 23-10-2012

fingers crossed for you!
RE: Hello - samass - 23-10-2012
Ah yes, I know where that is. I used to work for sky over in kirckaldy, call centre junk, hated it haha
RE: Hello - Nadine - 23-10-2012
Ahhh u worked for MGT. the good thing is I don't take calls
Thanks dave1221 if she doesn't start I'll b back to the drawing board looking for another project
RE: Hello - samass - 23-10-2012
yep, spot on! was there a grand total of a month
so when you say she doesnt start, does she crank over but not fire?
RE: Hello - Nadine - 23-10-2012
Yeah cranks over but didn't fire. So either no fuel or no spark. He said it had sat for a few days, and that there was no petrol in it.
RE: Hello - samass - 23-10-2012
ah hopefully an easy fix then
RE: Hello - Will_306_hdi - 23-10-2012
Welcome. Needs some loving.
Theres lots of knowledgeable and helpful people on here.
RE: Hello - Nadine - 23-10-2012
Yeah hopefully otherwise if it doesn't start, I'm not buying it lol. I need it to run to get it home x
RE: Hello - jonny1.6 - 23-10-2012
poor thing deffo has had a hard life by the looks of it bit nothing a bit of tlc wont sort out welcome to the fourm btw alot of helpful people here and know what there talking about
RE: Hello - puglove - 23-10-2012
lol not starting isnt a good selling point, but and theres alway a but, if you know some one who's handy with the spanners and can get it going again, its a good bargening point, offer them scrap value for it as it dosnt run
RE: Hello - Nadine - 23-10-2012
What is scrap value? I do know someone handy ill see if he can come with me Friday morning
