Mr Hyde Estate, aka The Milf

[dr_jekyll]

You've had the Jekyll, now its time for Mr Hyde [emoji28][emoji28][emoji28]

Not sure how much oc is used anymore but always enjoy a good build thread.

So if anyone remembers the old red hdi estate i ended up breaking it to persue buying a 205 gti... Which ended up becoming a rottern nightmare [emoji28] tried to save it but with shift changes etc at work and other commitments i just didnt have the time anymore.
So going back i ended up having to buy a daily, tried a 206 gti 140 for a while (hands down the worst Peugeot ive ever driven!), then swapped up yo a 307 1.6 hdi and just couldnt find my mojo.
Randomly got a msg from a good friend who had picked a 306 estate up destined for scrap and offered me it for £200 with ticket still. Knowing the cars well i jumped straight on it for a daily.
Car was a 1.9 dw8 Lx with a sunroof


First thing on the list if jobs was to sort and tidy up the front end. Id always wanted to make a ph1 estate so as far as i saw it i had my perfect excuse. Managed to source a white front end from a poverty 5 door.


Ended up smashing the old ph2 headlights up for the plugs to make the headlight conversion looms and had to temporarily zip tie the ph2 expansion bottle [emoji28]


Had to make do with the ph2 bumper for a while as finding a Gti6/dturbo was proving difficult. In the end managed to buy two at a bargin price and sell one on. Popped to my local paint store and had some 2k rattle cans made up to colour match the bumper



Next was wheels and lows. The modular steels were always a signature look for my old car so i seeked out somthing similar and ended up with some 10j extreme offsets


Cheaped out on coilovers and went for a poverty spec set of fk's from a 206 just to get the front low

Took the car too my mates where we got the wheels on and machine polished the car to correct the seemingly matte white paint
