That's pretty fcuked dude, don't buy it to fix, buy to run into the ground.

Any idea roughly how much it would cost to fix? Didnt realise it was that bad, maybe give it a miss

As said that's from the inside so would say its pretty knackered, roof skins are only thin, I'm not a bodywork guy though so others may know better

Thanks matt, its just that the cars so clean apart from the roof and if it isnt too much i might consider buying it.

that needs a new roof, quite a big job, windscreen out.
need a part number? http://public.servicebox.peugeot.com/ and http://service.citroen.com/ will sort you out.

I'd be checking the rear arch, bulkhead and chassis rails as well, I doubt it's as clean as you think without digging further.

What causes the roof on a 306 to rust out?

peugeot doing something very daft 23 years ago.
spot welding the sunroof frame to the roof skin. citroen did it the right way, plastic frame bolted to captive inserts at the top of the pillars. blocked sunroof drains dont help.

feck me..... thats bad, you can cut, and weld a new piece in, but that again is alot of work, plus how far has it gone on the inside. bit of a can of worms to me
