hi everyone,
i joined this forum so i could share my 306 with other members and to get ideas, opinions and advice on different mods and jobs that i will be carrying out on my car. i have a kingfisher green 1996 dturbo's which i bought in england and brought back to northern ireland during january of 2017. The car had 120k on her when i bought it and it was mechanically sound, FSH and tax book came with the car, not one problem with the engine and a year on i still havent had one bit of bother. although it had no front bumper, and almost every panel was dented. i spent nearly 6 months of work, sourcing the correct parts, fixing panels which could be fixed and giving the full car a fresh new coat of paint, as well as changing oil, oil filter, air filter, diesel filter and timing belt etc just for peace of mind.
since its mot at the start of july 2017, i have done quite a bit to it including;
i still have a few things in the garage that i need to put on such as an oil catch can, a front mount intercooler, a quickshifter and a td04 from a scubby. however with some of these i will need help and advice from this forum, such as whats the best way to pipe the intercooler and is it better to go with a 406/xantia manifold or just weld together an adaptor...
anyways im sure i will find the answers to my questions on here, so ill share with use a few pictures of my car..
