Sorry dude but you've not got a chance in hell of getting £1500 for it!
I'm not being a dick or anything just being truthful!
IMHO you'd be lucky to get £900 for it!

Thats your opinion but thats the price im asking..... wana swap really anyway, if i dont get what im asking/near that i will just d turbo convert it next year

[Oil-burner]

Like I said I'm not being a dick or anything!
There was a 50k, one owner Hdi that went for similar money on eBay not all that long ago!

---

Why don't you just get a cheapo dt? I only paid 500 for my 90k dt sedan!

[RePT]

A swap would be your best bet dude, £1500 is a no chance imo. You dont get your money back on mods, and buying already modded cars is boring :p

Good luck in finding your dt, seem to
Be less and less around by the day!

im looking but carnt seem to find any cheap ones..... will see if i get any offers swap wise if not will see what hapens, how i feel right now just wana smash it up lol love french cars

[Oil-burner]

Why? You've sorted the problems out now haven't you? Just needs a new clutch.



Oh and if you do smash it up could you kick the fmic setup towards claycross

[Chris_90]

Lol yer just clutch but pissing me off cos I spent so much was £500 about a week ago on high pressure pump and water pump, before that was £140 garage costs primer pump and genuine fuel filtter, and now clutch..... Carnt justfie spending more on it

[Oil-burner]

To be fair I would have been in two minds wether to spend £600 on it tbh, I would have been tempted to break it tbh! Like RePt said you'll never see your money back on it!
Couldn't you have got a second hand pump?

[Chris_90]

probly but then its a risk could have lasted 2 weeks or 2 years who knows.... if i can source a clutch cheap to hold the toque i will consider keeping it, ive replaced every thing else might as well replace clutch

[Oil-burner]

Yeah but if you got a second hand one with warranty (deatons will usually give a 30day) it's worth the risk to save £400!

[Chris_90]

Oh well bit to late now.....

[RePT]

Personally, i hope to keep my 306 till the shell rusts. By then, ill hopefully be a 306 specialist!

[kentiiboii]

Brand new valeo clutch kit at mine. Still under warranty. Will hold the power.
Yours for £85 collected.

[Chris_90]

Thanks but to much for me would rather buy on from motor factors round here at least if any thing was wrong I can take it back and for the sake of £15 extra I would rather do it that way. Thanks,any way

[kentiiboii]

It's a clutch with warranty. What can really go wrong?

[Chris_90]

Dont no anything could put it in and it fall to bits and at least if place round corner from me i can just take it back there..... if it was £65 i would think about it, but owt above that i wouldn't risk it..... thanks anyway

[kentiiboii]

Ok chances of it "falling to bits" is very unlikely. But as I say it's a brand new clutch pressure plate and thrush bearing. All valeo from £85 you ain't going to beat that.

[samass]

*thrust bearing

[Oil-burner]

Haha nothing worse than a car with thrush! Lol

[samass]

Maybe Kent is getting confused with his doctor's report?

[Chris_90]

LOL

well not really but its still classed as "second hand" if you ask me and after talking to my local place managed to get them down to £92 all in for a new one for the sake of £7 not worth it...... any way lets leave my thread now see if i get any interest in the car (before i deiced to put a clutch in it and keep it that is)

[CJ_Derv]

Wait till you get a Dturbo then the fun will start lol

And you'll then start buying from a scrap yard as youl replace that much lol

[Arron]

Your warranty on a standard clutch is irrelevant when your remapping... its bound to start slipping eventually.. standard/OEM clutch is designed for standard/OEM power... it may be able to hold more but its not designed to.. tis why I leaned away from a berlingo clutch

Glwts. If you have receipts for all the work done someone may want to meet you in the middle considering mileage/general condition

Im defo considering the berlingo clutch as im not planing to have massive amounts of toque i would be happy with 250-280ftlbs depending on how i get on with the cutting out issue (which i haven't had since i had new pump on) just not sure what to do as really would like a d turbo so i can run on veg....... no idea what to do lol just doing my homework on the berlingo clutch now and going from there.....

[Oil-burner]

Why don't you put the Hdi back to standard and get rid then?
No point chucking more money at it to get it to stage 2 then getting rid!

[Chris_90]

like ive said before i spent so much money on it, its just best if i keep it. i would really like a d turbo but if i end up keeping this i will still be happy.... i gota deiced what i wana do but im now considering the berlingo clutch

[Chris_90]

BUMP any one got a nice d turbo to swap??

[ash23]

swap for mine haha?

no seriously just keep this mate its nearly there just a clutch away from being there but if you buy a dturbo you will have differet problems all over again .

if you need a hand to fit the clutch im more than happy to help out

Swap for yours?? Im on my way ;-) lol wouldnt do clutch swap my self/ with help, I once did a saxo vtr clutch took me about 3 days lol and will be alot harder on this, just need to find a clitch that will hold the toque for a long period of time i.e 4-5years, and will feel like a normal clutch to drive. Then I will keep this..... Really dose put a smile on my face the the clutch grips and it just takes off lol
