Haha indeed! At long last...

Ended up ordering a whole ECU kit; engine ECU, immobiliser box, transponder, new keys, and ignition barrel. Luckily one came up for the exact same car so was the closest match possible. Still since buying that I haven't seen another matching kit so I feel lucky managing to find that. I suspect it was a corrupted ECU and/or failed immobiliser box. 

It actually drives really well, just done a service on it and fitted some new alloys with the correct size tyres. Just needs new clutch cable and maybe clutch kit as its very stiff atm, but otherwise all good!

Great little car and this 1.8 unit feels really strong for a fully standard 20year old 306. 

Is it a pain to lower the rear of these? Might get some front suspension for it in a few months, but then will also want to lower the rear a bit as it does sit quite high...

Cheers
