Just gauging interest: phase 1 1.4

[SteveMcs]

Just gauging interest on this at the moment.








Mechanics:
Spot on, just had a lot of work done including new head gasket (including head skim), various other gaskets when head was being done (Eg, valve cover, exhaust mani etc), New cambelt, New clutch/clutch cable/gearbox oil, 4 new tyres fitted and balanced by kwik-fit (Budgets).

All work has been carried out professionally with receipts.

Work done by previous owner in last 2 years, New windscreen, New water pump, New rear drums, New battery. Again, all professionally with receipts.

Exterior:
Great considering original 18 year old paintwork. Obviously the odd little scratch/chip but nothing noticeable unless you look very hard.

Interior:
Front seats quite worn, previous owner put some universal covers on that do the job. Every else great condition. Carpet and headliner spot on, no leaks. All controls/electrics work as they should.

In car entertainment:
Sony xplod head unit (USB or AUX inputs in front), FLI front door speakers and alpine active subwoofer in rear foot well.

6 month tax, 3 month test.

Reason for getting rid: i've ridden bikes for the past 3 and a half years and changed over to a car. I regret it and want to get back on 2 wheels

Price?!

[SteveMcs]

Absolutely no idea, car owes me £8-900 but i know i'll never get that so i'm open to offers

[Piggy]

I'll be blunt mate...
Ebay it.

Be unlikely anyone wants the slowest oldest 306 made on here. And if they did, they wouldnt pay over £300

[Jimbo]

No piggy a nad is definitely slower

[1616six]

eBay is certainly your best bet. What made you spend double what you paid for the car, on repairs?

[Piggy]

No piggy a nad is definitely slower

at least a NAD would be economical to run and blow its head every 10k!

[Toms306]

No piggy a nad is definitely slower

True. And in Europe there was a 1.1 306 as well....definitely slower lol! Plus the tax on a NAD is twice as much lol.

Nothing wrong with a 1.4 tbh, cheap to tax and insure, 45mpg, and being petrol can make bwarps which is what every 17 year old wants. A ph3 Meridian would still be well specced as well.....but unfortunately this is a pov spec ph1...


That said, its worth about £250 tbh. Im sure we had this discussion in the chatbox when you were contemplating wasting money on it.

[Piggy]

But there wasnt any 1.1s here!

I will believe 45mpg when I see it from those old 1.4s!! Maybe a late 1.4...but not that early one!

[Toms306]

I think P should be multipoint? My R reg ph2 was MPI and achieved 45mpg average back in 2009....petrol was only a pound a litre then as well!

I have seen 48mpg from an X reg ph3 on a run, but wouldn't average that lol.
