I refer you to my comment of:

It's not that people dislike the other 306 specs, it's just that they're treated like absolute crap! Nobody will ever do performance mods to a 1.6 because "just put a gti6 in"... But then at the same time, I've never seen anybody actually follow through with any mods to a 1.4/1.6...
The ratio of "I've turbo'd my 1.6" to "It's scrapped" is roughly around the ratio of 0:500 at the moment - I'm all for people modifying 1.6s etc, just usually they're modified badly and poorly maintained/treated.
I have owned 16 and as of tomorrow on number 17, and do care for my cars but please remember some peopl3 are happy to keep them standard and shouldn't be steered towards modifying any rare specials or "" just stick a 6 in it""
Just like the D tu4bo-s Toms306 just bought, these are becoming rare just like a sorrento or lazer green 205, much more desirable standard and unabused than a modified one.
I've loved the 306 since i was 16 when they were released and will never likely own a rallye so a little more love for the 306 in general and not just the fast ones!
