Cheers for coming yesterday Tom was nice to see you and to have a fellow black rallye there 
Shame about the figures but i think there must be some sensor issues, as said before the lambda makes the biggest of differences on these as far as i have found so far!
Rallye was looking spot on as always though, Are you local to anyone on the forum that could check the timing for you and maybe pop the car on peugeot planet?

Driving the rallye everyday atm... Loving it btw. Got 35mpg out of last tank (see spritmonitor indicator in signature) and that included nailing it on motorways down to Hereford and the rolling road session so chuffed with that. Next tank will see some regular driving so I'm hoping for 37/8. Over my ownership my old gti managed 36mpg so hoping my "lightweight" Rallye can beat it haha.
Also just rolled over 120k... (Mrs leaning over to take pic!! Awkward!!)

Lovely looking example! Hopefully you'll get to the route of the power problem though  plus your doing well to get that sort of mpg!

Added Speed holes today. And got it booked in @ my local garage to have a goose at cam timing and Lambda. 
New Windscreen as well today. All is good :-)

Yes you can finally re-fit the scuttle trim that its been missing every time i have seen it? 
I quite like the speed holes but personally i would of made them slightly larger as the 306 has quite a good size grille.
Looking good though tom

Yes the scuttle panel has been fitted! (Should've taken pics haha) it's the best thing visually I've done to the car so far!!
I was uming and arring about the hole size. Went small coz u can always make em bigger but can't make em smaller! Might bust the manual drill out again to gingerly enlarge em ;-)

It's got a laggy band on coz Id reglued the outer trim as it was starting to work loose. Come to think of it it's still on as I've forgotten to take it off!
And yeah it's upside down, it's kinda a joke as everyone colours / smooths off / has an opinion on the emblem so I just think it's funny!!

Next week when it's off road. Still using everyday until the windscreen claim has gone thru so I can change insurance back to Toyota (which is looking sad not being used in the garage).

Booked in next week! Don't want to tinker with it whilst it's daily!! Once I'm back in Toyota it can get pulled apart :-)

Friday! Been reading about lambda sensor issues tho and it says stuff about poor mpg and smelling of fuel etc. neither of which this does. + on an old runway near me (no jokes I live in the flattest county in the country) it did 140mph... So not really sure what it's gonna be. But it's with my mates garage Friday to have a full work over.

It does seem to be a strange one, seems to drive fine when we were in convoy in redditch the other month and you feel no difference driving it
I suspect it will be something like cam timing or something, in time but not quite perfect sorts thing?
Unless you've already checked that?
Wrong sparkplugs perhaps? My 6 was fitted with the wrong plugs when I bought it and it honestly felt so much better with the correct type, although that could be because they were new... Maybe a bit of both

Cam timing also getting checked. Cheers mate, Will try spark plugs after that. What type should it have?

Maybe. I take the a6097 (which leads to Mansfield) across from Bingham until where it joins the a14 in nottingham every day. Was it around there? If not if may have been the black Rallye that lives in Chesterfield.

This, we fitted the new scorpion pipe and lamda, first start all the previous issues were gone.
I never thought it was so important either until the rallye haha
