So I've replaced the 406.
With another one 
Here's some pictures from the advert.

Very very happy with it so far, everything works as it should and it's a really nice place to be. And, for the first time, I has a sunroof, so I've been driving everywhere with that open and the heaters on 
It's already mapped up, so about 140 or so, which is a very "comfortable" power figure (yawn). It's probably quicker than most stage 1 306's TBH, I've yet to confirm this but it feels fast enough.
Plans are to keep it mint, probably lower 40mm or so, and some new wheels when the time comes to change the tyres

Aye, must be getting old.
TBH I wanted a comfy daily heavy enough to tow the track car with and this fits the bill just nicely.

I haven't broken it. Just fitted parts incorrectly. And some of the electronic parts are on holiday.

Well I fixed the bit I broke, and the car has fixed it's own electrics. The balance has been restored!

Awesome, handsome cars too, just need some finishing touches (i.e wheels and lowering).

There's a very cheap 2.1 XUD Executive on a Bosch not far from me, very, very tempted. It's an estate as well, proper useful, just getting images of it lowered on black Challengers...
