looking at a 306 tomorrow...
#13
just been out to have a look at the car... I have a few questions, but not sure whuich section/s to put them in so i'll carry on this thread if ok with mods (???). in no particular order...

-enigne started fine with battery booster - seller said he would put anew battery on it.
-engine has a few drips of oil in bottom around the sump etc. cant tell where its leaking from - possibly towards the top of the engine. any suggestions?
-the left most injector was sitting in some sort of fluid - not sure if it was oil or diesel (didnt want to go poking too much as i got my smart work clothes on!) - are injectors prone to leaking?
-central locking didnt work and nor did the key fob. Clifford alarm did though.
-drivers seat needs replacing
-front bumper was on straight with good equal gaps all round and other panels all gapped up ok., seems to be some fog lights in the boot - not sure if they were genny ones
-car drove real well, pulled strongly, brakes were good once rust was removed, hand brake was also good
-exhaust seems real solid. I couldnt see a cat but not sure if it was too old to have one fitted as standard.
-clutch bite was real high but not slipping - any adjustment in these? sign of it on its way out?
-blowers inside got nice and toasty
-rear beam seems solid with even wear on tyres. no movement in rear wheels when moved 12-6 and 3-9 like. some knocking from rear though over big bumps - defo not exhaust knocking or spare wheel cage. could be junk in the boot though. Sign of anything major?
-needed new door sill seals - easy to get?
-3 good cyclones - one with laquer peel

any more input from you guys is appreciated.
