Just a random one really, what do you think the best part of a 306 is?
I will go first, the map light.
Reason: useful at night when chilling so you dont blind yourself by turning a light on.

The handling. Sharp turn-in, changes direction quickly, sod-all understeer, lift-off oversteer, loads of feel through the super accurate steering, stable, and they ride pretty well too, better than my Skoda which is supposed to be a comfy cruiser...

^^^ What he said.
Seems a bit vague for a "part" though, so i'm going to go with front windows, as they're currently the thing i miss most about a fully-working 306.

The shape and overall look of the ph3 rear end.....wide, sloping, awesome.
But if it has to be an actual part....the rain sensor for the auto wipers.

Got to be the fake fuel cap on the opposite side to the actual fuel cap on a 3-door?
My favourite feature anyway! I like the pointlessness of it but how it makes the car symetrical.
Disclaimer: The above is not to be taken to heart and is probably a joke, grow up you big girl.

Best bit of a generall 306....... Urm....... My boot was comfy to sleep in the other night.

Worse thing has to be the fact every single bolt Peugeot decided to use corrodes to bad you round the f*ckers off

XUD9TE - They made a 1.9 litre engine to be more powerful than the old XUD7TE... Then realised it was quicker than the 2.0 8V XSi.... So had to derate it to 90hp....
Torsion Bar rear suspension - the fact it's 6 bolts and the brake lines and the ENTIRE rear suspension unit falls on the floor... Any other car that handles even SLIGHTLY as well is a trillion times more complex.
