Welcome to the club my first 306 was a ph3 1.4 lx it had a lovely flaked grey paint job wich to be honest looked more like black with 60k on clock sadly the gear box failed twice and I had to give it up it was a shame because it was only 7 months old when I got it but yeah great choice on first car love the colour too

Cheers man, all I can say is that at least you had a 306 as a first!..you'd be surprised..I've had numerous people stop and look at the car, it's nothing special either! aha

Hello and welcome Whereabouts in shropshire are you?

Also i work for a breakers yard fairly local (live in knighton - powys) so if your ever stuck for a hand with the car or parts i usually have a decent stock of 306 bits (including some cyclones )

I'm just up past Craven Arms, I know Knighton well! travel through there on route to Wales a lot! Yes I had a gander around Google and found that yard..I might have to stop by it sometime, although sadly since I have four new tyres fitted to the current rims..I can't warrant buying anymore aha!

Your thinking of peugeot breakers at five turnings in knighton , I work for Autobreakers in Hereford

Your little 306 looks exactly like my HDi, (X reg, moonstone, meridian & 5 door) Next time your heading knighton way give me a shout

I am indeed! (at least if there's only one I am) I have yet to get myself a job..still a college lad, it may be some time sadly..since I haven't even received my provisional yet..but when I do I'm sure you'll see my little Moonstone 306 all over the place..got big plans once I have my license!

In my experience it is best to get the car 110% before you start using it to try and make it as reliable as possible

Get yourself qualified and out in the working world what you studying? sensible getting a nice little car ready for when you pass   just dont spend money on modifying a car that could be used to get your licence!

Basically I'm planning to get as close to factory new as possible, next job is to look over the whole car check for issues and sort them out, then engine bay cleaning, rocker cover respray..etc you know the drill!

I'm almost at the end of my first year studying AS Photography, ICT and Media, I've had one lesson in an alternate car, and have yet to stall any car I've driven..so I'm hoping to Thrash my Theory soon..then take the Test asap..I need to get on the road..then I can get a decent job!..more than likely a Music Shop..or Garage aha
