The 306 has a linear gauge according to my scangauge, it's not really a modern car any more lol.
Barely reaching 80 is right, it should peak at 80 then drop a couple of degrees as the stat opens.
I think the later engines (406/307/etc) were fitted with higher temp thermostats as a matter of course, probably to increase the efficiency. I've got a 307 one here that I haven't fitted yet, that one doesn't open until ~90*.
