Newbie from West Wales
#1
Hey folks, I'm new on here Blush

My name's Will and I live in Sunny(not) South West Wales.
I've had a few Peugeots over the years, mainly 205 diesels, a couple of 405's and a 306 Meridian td.
Anyway, I'm thinking of getting a Pug once again, haven't finalised which model as yet, nothing too new though.

Hope I'll fit in on here

Not far from me, bout 9-10 miles.

No, 306's are getting a rarer sight on the roads these days.
There are a few in the local scrappy though, mostly Hdi's.
There's a blue estate there with black leather interior. If I'd bought a van and not a Combi Partner, then I'd be grabbing the seats from it.

I've only seen one GTi6 in about a year and that was whilst I was in London! (Apart from mine)

I seen the odd derv burner, but they are all either old farts or people running them on red to go back and forth to work.

Think you've got your areas mixed up, South West Wales, in particular is by far the best (apart from the sea air making stuff rust!) ;-)

Yeh, ASDA in Pembroke is about the cheapest around here.

You're right, the job losses and businesses affected by the Murco buy out not going ahead is really gonna affect this area badly.
I'm out of work myself at the moment and there's not very much out there :-(

I'm a grease monkey by trade, but have been a mobile service engineer working on plant (generators, compressors and pumps) equipment for the last 12 1/2 yrs, so something along those lines would be more suited. I don't really wanna go back in to motor vehicle if I can help it.

I've got a Peugeot Partner combi at the moment as the price was right and there's enough room in the back to keep my tools in as well. If the company supply me with a works van that I can keep my tools in all the time, then I'd get rid of the Partner and find something else.
I would love another 306 again though. There are about 4 in my local scrappy, (mainly Hdi's) the body looks as if they were in good condition until they went in there as all the damage I can see appears to be pretty fresh. I would definitely have another 306 though.
