Im fully aware its just an old Peugeot at the end of the day but feel its got to be worth more than the usual 100k+ mile stuff you see on ebay. I no some people say low mileage cars are no better than motorway mile cars, and I agree if they have only got like 3 or 4 services but if looked after and serviced regularly id choose a low mileage car any day of the week, and seeing that this car has only cost me 2 sets of front discs and pads (apart from all the things ive chosen to do to it) I don't think im far wrong to be honest. Im 100% confidant it will fly though any MOT or inspection as I regularly check it over and happen to be an MOT tester myself so keep make sure its up to scratch.
Spec:
1999 306 Hdi Meridian
76,000 Miles with Full Service History - About 18 services in book.
Jac Mech Stage 1.5 Map
Large FMIC
Boost Gauge Fitted into centre Vent
De-Cat
De-EGR
Lowered Approx 60mm All Round
Hoffman Center Pipe
Mid to Back Box Mod
New Tarox G88 discs and new pads (less than 3k ago)
Upgraded to 307 Crank Pulley
Smoothed Front end (not perfect but still looks good)
Custom 1 Off Smoothed Bonnet Bra
Debadged Rear
16" Borbet A - Direct Fit. Genuine wheels not replicas
Flat or Embossed Center Caps - Both Genuine Borbet items
Upgraded door speakers and tweeters.
Rear quarters inspected for rust, none at all, so cleaned, dried and undersealed to protect for future.
Like a 2 year old car underneath, no rust or anything - wouldn't think it was 16 year old.
Ive had the car since 21000 miles and its never missed a beat. if you want trouble free motoring at low cost its the ideal car.
When I got the car it had just had the timing belt and water pump replaced so this isn't due for at least another year iirc.
Bodywork has some marks but for a 17year old car id class it as very good condition and I'm quite picky. The worst point on the car would be the bonnet. The front edge isn't too good but that's why I got the smooth bonnet bra. Once fitted it hides it all and looks better.
Selling reluctantly due to needing a bigger car due to new baby, son and a big dog to cart round.
Really don't want to sell as i know i won't get another car that will do 40mpg and not break down but needs must.

I don't no.
Probably be laughed out of here but with wheels and what any extras I have around here I'm going to say 1500. Pure and simply because yea it's old but how much do you have to spend to get a newer car that will do this mpg and be as reliable and cheap to run and if it needs it repair.
I've looked around before I bought my new car and I struggled to find anything.

People are always going to make you an offer and beat you down. As long as youve stated a reasonably sensible price youve met forum rules. Maybe a price with and without wheels may help people out a bit if youve got some spare cyclones or something to go on?

No-one will laugh at you however that is an extremely keen price for a 17 year old car. You'd be much better off returning it to completely standard and lowering the price to reflect it.. Someone will want a nice clean original low miles base rather than one that may not suit their taste.
If you're asking £1500 as it is, you will have to wait a considerable time for a sale IMO.
GLWTS nonetheless.

Yea wasn't expecting people snatching my hand off.
My trouble is I don't really want to sell. I've had the car nearly 5 years and I've only ever had to replace the brakes. Nothing has gone wrong. I no once it's gone I'll regret it.
If I don't get any serious interest I'll park it up and use it when I don't need such a huge baby seats in a year or so haha

not really helping you sell it but i've raised two boys in 306's, one is now 10 and the other 3, never had a problem myself, they do have bigger boots than a lot of other cars for pushchairs etc . .

Haha yeah... 1 of reasons I don't want to sell. The travel system the other half has bought is huge but should only last 12 months then I can get a normal sized car seat and a fold away pushchair.
But at the moment I'm struggling and that's without getting the dog in

so . . . . . . . if you're giving her away, i'll definitely take her :  does look a very clean car, good for someone that wants a really good example.

Shame no one else wants to offer more than 800 quid.
To be honest I haven't got time to be breaking it, I've got a 4 week old here and back to work now so any time I get off I'm spending it with her...
Most I want to do is swap wheels. Someone buy it from me to break it haha

Yeah sometimes it's worth more to you. I love my pug. I've spent more on it than its worth. I wouldn't sell it because even though it's mint and reliable. No welding. And engine is perfect. I know I'd struggle to get over 350 if I sold it. But if the mot is under 300 then I'd still fix it. As I know all the bits I've replaced. It's sad really but second hand cars are just really cheap. But a good one is worth keeping. I've had enough lemons.
