Just been offered a 306 2.0XSi which where I will be living in a couple of weeks my insurance will drop SIGNIFICANTLY. Here's the catch, the 306 has come off the road and hit a verge, no real damage as such but it has bust the rad and now it won't turn over...Will it run again or will it be a new engine job? Bloke who offered it to me wants £200 for it.

Probably just the inertia cut off switch. Give him £200 for it, press the red button behind the battery and start it. Job done. If that doesnt do it, break it for parts

Spamass I carry a spare key and only now you're telling me that you carry a spare engine too?
But not too sure on whether it was run after the collision I would like it but wouldn't like for it to be sat around and not being used all I'm after is an easy project to get me back into the realms of 306 ownership!

I'm afraid I'm not for posting pics in the public domain (I'm an ex-photographer so respect copyright laws etc)
