Had my Pug and been on here for a while so i thought i should start a thread..

When i first got it










Sprayed the Rocker White



Sprayed the badge black

---

Made use of free stickers with Fast Car Magazine/French Car Magazine


Few pictures from a drive round one night




Treated it to a service


Managed to snap one of the old spark plugs


Think the old oil had been in for a while...

Decided to give it a wash and polish then got some help so i decided to let them do it for me




I know some of the pictures are crap quality but there the only ones i have

Looking good mate. Get a phase 3 front bumper and it would look a lot better I think. Got any plans for it?

[318d4n]

Plan on doing mate, went into the back of someone few months ago, damaged the n/s wing and bumper, plan on putting a ph3 bumper on eventually, plan on new alloys, lowering, another exhaust, more ice mods then whatever I decide.

Sounds good bud. Maybe some cyclones!

[318d4n]

either cyclones or 205 speedlines, place i used to work at was scrapping a 306 with soem speedlines on, i told them that i would happily buy some more wheels to put on it if i could have the alloys, but no fucker got back to me...

Dont do cyclones, maybe something a bit different instead, still keeping it oem though. Ive been looking at a set of 307 wheels, Equinoxe i think they're called, think theyd look kinda sweet on a 306:



EDIT: Maybe wont necessarily be THAT big in real life, but you get the picture

[318d4n]

must admit i do kinda like them, think being big like that would look pretty smart on the right car, you know what size they are by any chance? wouldnt wanna go higher than 15 tbh

[WiNgNuTz]

Equinoxe are 16's mate, step up from my lasers that are 15's.

[318d4n]

Would 16s not mess the Speedo up without really low profiles?

[WiNgNuTz]

Not sure what size tyres you'd need with 16's, I've got 195/55's on my lasers though ,so maybe 40 or 45 profile would do the job. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong though!

[Jonny b]

195/45/16 is virtually the same rolling radius as 195/55/15 so wont make a difference to the speedo bud

[spillage]

looks really clean mate , and the exshaust is ace to dude

the spark plugs your not meant to hammer it out hahaha

did u say you r goin the nottingham meet dude

[puglove]

Nice project mate, plans sound good, as for tyre size/ speedo it wont make a massive difference tbh

[Bananalad]

Any more pictures of the ladies?

Car looks clean any daylight pictures of your back box?

[318d4n]

Might have to look into some 16s then

Spillage- cheers mate, haha couldn't get the plug spanner in so had to use a long socket with a knuckle going to the ratchet, must of got it a a funny angle and used too much
pressure, hopefully will be yeah, depending on weather and my mood at the time, you going?

Puglove- thanks, on my saxslow I had 195/45 15s and it put it a bit out

Bananalad-considering its my girlfriend, mum and sister I highly doubt it lmao.Cheers, will get some more at weekend, I've moved it in a bit more now too, still not happy with how it sits, need to cut a gap in bumper for it/buy another, needs a decat, its f*cked and sounds awful, gonna buy a new one for mot then buy a decat and just swap them over for mot time

Bought some new sidelight bulbs yesterday, one of them had blown so decided to get some blue/white ones, not got a pic of them yet.

Bought some meguires wheel cleaner, clay bar and quick detailer and also finally bought a Haynes manual for it!!

Decided to give her a going over with the clay today..




Also got my new spoiler painted and put on today..





Still not happy with it completely...the bottom vibrates, needs sticking down or something?

[318d4n]

306OC tax disc holder!!



Cyclones!!1 all with at least 5mm tread on tyres, fronts are nearly brand new! bargain at £100




went round 2 scrap yards this morning looking for some wheel bolts that fitted right, ended up getting 15 bolts and also finally got the rest of the ashtray in the front!



decided to give it a good was today, along with doing it with a clay bar and a pollish today, just needs waxing tomorrow and finishing cleaning the inside out
