Hey everyone, my name's Carl. Hopefully within the next week or two i'll have my first peugeot in the drive and it'll be my first diesel as well. The car is a 306 TD GLX 5dr, in a lovely sigma blue. The car has a scrape of some description on every corner apart from one! Side skirt on the left is bashed in so that will need replacing. The engine looks is in good condition and has not been tampered with........ yet. I'm pretty clueless with almost every aspect of a car, making this an interesting learning experience so any advice would be greatly appreciated. Before i get nagged haha, I dont have any photos yet, but once I have the car i'll get some on

Pics are on my phone, I shall stick them up when I go back in the house, just painting something ATM
I haven't stripped anything off it, not my car otherwise I would have nicked the engine for my new build
I will reply to your PM later too, if you want to ask anything then just shout up, Jonny will tell you this, and you have already been to a meet which you didn't mention
