Hi everybody my name is Gavin and i live near Alnwick in Northumberland i currently own a Phase 1 306 D-turbo which i got at the end of september have wanted 1 of these cars since i started learning to drive which was many years ago lol.

I love this car handling is brilliant and the power is unreal (when you use to a 1.2 petrol this thing i fast!!) and for its age (1997 on a P plate) she is in pretty good nick only has 107,000 miles on the clock the body work has a few scrathces but the alloys are in mint condition only has a few gremlins the rev counter dosnt work and the drivers electric window is broken (my fault) but i love it

Will post some pictures soon as she needs a wash!!!!

Now give it a stage one tune. Screw the wastegate in and turn the fuelling up and youll add about another 30bhp :-) and its free! :-)

Anyway.. welcome along to the club :-)

The rev counter will be the crankshaft sensor I believe, I have one here that's brand new, let me know if you're interested

What tyres you got on there? If your on the 15" alloys then its usually 195/50or 55/ 15

There 185/65/14 origional fitment is 175/65/14 but if you want to upgrade they need to be on 185/55/14's the fitter who put these on should have known better

Welcome to the forum mate.

With the rev counter you probably just need to screw the crank sensor a tiny bit closer to the fly wheel.
