Seasons Greetings!

Hello, I'm John (jatkin) I'm 24, sligthtly mad and I'm from Middlesbrough which is all the way up in the North East.

I used to be a bit of a lurker on .net last year when I had a Xantia DHX engined t25 blown 3 door phase 2 306.
After an incident chasing a 106 gti that blew an engine, an oil slick, sliding down an embankment, having an argument with a drystone wall and finally the bottom crank pulley letting go a few weeks later @6000rpm, it got broken for parts and weighed in

As I already had a big gay subaru impreza (now sold!) and a an awesome boosted 5-pot Fiat Coupe 20vt (still here, setting off car alarms!), I gave up on the entire 306 scene and replaced it with a nasty BMW 525tds :\

After 4000miles in the BMW, bastardising the VP pump, destroying several sets of rear tyres I sold it on for a profit!!

I am now however back with a replacement 306!




(early ph1 clocks, anyone know what the difference between these and the later ones is?)

Yes, its a Phase 1 306 STDT in White.
Full run-down is as follows
1994 M Peugeot 306 STDT 1.9dt
15" 205 GTI Nimrods powder coated gloss black
Half-Leather phase 3 full interior
GTI6 front brakes & front coilovers
GTI6 rear beam (discs)
Bosch + T2

She's now done 183,000miles and is in unbelievable condition, like brand new underneath. I've never seen a car this old look this new underneath!
I bought it originally to use as a daily, but I keep pulling it in the garage and tinkering with more and more bits :\

Anyway thats my introduction and I hope to be around for a while.

Cheers!
John
