We don't have anything like that on here but you've put an idea in my head that we probably should write one!
There were never huge differences in specification with 306s. Some cabby's did have cloth seats but most are leather. Its just a case of choosing your leather colour. The Tan and red are a bit marmite. Personally i love them but some don't. All had electric windows, Ph3 models (late 1999-2002) had auto wipers. The PH1 cabby (1994-1996 i think?) came with a 2.0l 8v engine. Not a bad engine, nothing special. The ph2 and 3 came with either a 1.8 or 2.0 both 16v. Personally, i think the 1.8 was the better lump. Only 15ish BHP less but substantially lighter being a ally block and head. Both engines suffer from ICV issues but this isn't a issue really. If you want to do engine modifications, the 1.8 ECU is pretty terrible unless the engine is kept standard.
