What are my chances of fitting front & rear bumpers, bonnet and front wings off a 306, in a 3 door 306?
Slim or extremely slim? Place your bets please...
I may find out the hard way this weekend, but seriously, if anyone knows a more definitive answer that'd be great, lol. Cheers!

Possible with front passenger seat and rear seats down and rear shelf out.

Yeah pretty easy I say... with seats down bonnet goes in sideways and lays flat.
Anything other than the chassis of a 306 fits inside a 306

It will all fit, but the main issue would be getting it all in a save way so bits dont get damaged/scratched

This! Won't fit without damage, take some old towels/sheets if you can, 306 hatches aren't 'that' big lol, estates are like the Tardis though!

You'll do it easily!
If you wanna make it really easy then remove the rear seat bases before you leave home, they pull out once they are flipped up. Fold the back seats flat, remove the front passenger head rest and then pull that seat all the way forwards and recline it all the way back.
Put the bonnet in first sideways and flat on the boot floor then the bumpers then the wings on top and you'll probably have plenty of vision out the rear window too.

Done! Like, eeeeasily!
Passenger seat pushed forward, bonnet under everything. Front & rear bumper, both front wings, slam panel, headlights, rear lights, indicators, grille, entire steering column & wheel. After taking this photo, I even managed to fit in a drivers seat on top of everything. Haha, fantastic
Thanks to all! 306 = Tardis!
