Trying to decide wether to keep yellow fogs or remove tint film. At the moment I'm siding with removing it. Opinions please. I know at the end of the day it's my car so my choice but would love to hear what you guys think.

I know it's a good little car. It's French so obviously needs a few things sorting. Long term ybh I'd probably fit a ph3 but for now try and do the best I can with what I have  I've made a few subtle changes so far, I will eventually get a project thread up
So what are you driving now?

Cheers buddy, like the look of your 306, pretty much what I'm aiming for. Tbh with the front fogs, I don't know if it would look cleaner without the yellow tint.

Once you have a ph3 bumper it'll look bang on. What's the interior like, remember ad saying it was a little tired?

I know, got a few other things to sort before bumper  interior isn't bad tbh seats are standard dturbo black with blue flecky things lol only issues are glove box lid catch broken (easy fix) fuse box under dash needs a new cover as there isn't one (again easy fix) and the passenger side window doesn't go down, there's power to it and it try's but something's stopping it going down. It's not high on my priorities as I normally just use it for commuting so don't use the window. Injectors are ticking away haha and as the ad stated, there's an issue on the front drivers side wheel, I'm guessing P bushes or general bottom arm/wishbone.
Drives well though, good power with the stage 1 and very economical. It just seems like the kid who had it before me couldn't be bothered for example, he'd fitted LED bulbs in the numberplate lamps and they didn't work....so he left them in!! And the stereo lost all settings when ignition was turned off so I just swapped the red and yellow over, sorted. I just keep finding stupid little things that have just been left and are an easy fix. I'll get to the bottom of it soon enough haha.
Loving it though
