Hey guys, I'm Dan and i'm a member over at theywhoshallnotbenamed so i'm also coming over here.
I'm from Swindon, I have a Delft blue peugeot 306 1.4 meridian. I know delft blue is a very rare 306 colour as it's actually supposed to be a 406 coloured car.
I'm only 17 so this is my first car, 1.4 5 door. Very cheap on insurance compared to other 1.4's i'm insuring mine for £1,125/year which isn't bad! I'm hoping to get a ph3 dturbo as soon as I a job since the insurance is only £400 more a year!
My meridian has only had one change and it's that I've put cyclones on it.
Anyway that's my intro!
~Dan

Welcome along, as said above, get some pics up! I'm also interested in the colour, as my first 306 was a ph3 China 1.4.
Also, ph3 dturbo would be an hdi surely?

Haha, just wrote out allot of stuff to realise I already have a picture of my car online haha.
Edit: Is there anyone else from Swindon on here? Really want to do a local meet because I've not been to one yet, I a however all booked up for FCS first one for me!
There is so much stuff I want to do with my car but i'd rather get a dTurbo then modify that, none of this chavy bollocks though.
Here it is:

China's paint code is 'EGE'

I think different websites give alternate information sometimes, KMP was supposed to be Rhodes Blue O.o
Edit: Just checked, Delft Blue uses the alpha code M1PK

Welcome to the forum
Out of interest, did you book FCS on the 306oc stand? If so, stick your name down on the list in the FCS thread (in the meets section) and have a quick look over our thread about camping for the weekend leading up to the show.

Yeh, I was told to look there before but there's no sticker. Also someone said something about the boot so had a look around that but still couldn't find anything.

welcome mate!
in the boot, you'll find a pressed plate with the VIN and other stuff on it, the paint code will be on there too. as you look in the boot, its on the back panel underneath the boot catch, youll have to hang your head up side down to read it, but its there! and if you can decipher that, then kudos to you!
