well my old dear is doing ok! shes no minter but not a munter either she has about 130k on the clock and is starting to show her age. gear knob is peeling back, steering wheel stitching giving up, outside temp sensor is no longer functional and a few other little niggles are letting her down. dings dents and stone chips.
all in all these cars are getting a bit long in the tooth so apart from the mint diablo we all see far too often how would you describe yours? (if you have one) (6 or rallye)?

1 - Grumpychef...... shabby chic! not mint by any standards!

112k but with very good bodywork. No dents or scratches anywhere, the mechanicals are pretty good, shes just had a rear suspension overhaul with everything getting changed. However... The interior is not great, both front seats have holes which annoys me but one day il get round to getting new ones.

When cleaned it really doesn't look like a 12 year old car, and it runs smooth with not many problems in the 2 years of ownership. Does need a bit of money spent on the body, few dents. Also think a refurbished rear beam sometime soon.

On the whole really happy with it, although I think it's getting slower but that might just be in my head. A rolling road session is in order one day I believe.

Just hit 88k

mine's on 135k now, paintwork is in need of tidying up but it's a beast - absolutely 100% the most reliable of the many 306's i've ever owned [touch wood]

put my last 2 stockpiled Eagle F1's on it the other week, 2 new Toyo's on the front, a service, an MOT and that's it since buying it 18 months ago - other than swapping the exhaust off it and fixing the door wiring loom

if anything serious ever happens to it that's going to cost me over £300 to fix, i'll just break it up and buy another teetering on the edge of getting rid of it but it's a great car for running shit to the tip and also tidies up quickly into a decent everyday wagon

That is the problem with mine, would quite like something else and buy a standard six to turn into a track car, but I'd lose too much to sell mine now.

So I counteract that by spending more on it.

Mine's 114k on clock and still running well(touch wood). Does need constant maintenance though. Certianly would not want to be paying a proper garage for this as it would quickly mount up to more than the value of the car.

Interior is pretty much mint, bodywork is good but does have stone chips and dings you would expect from a 13 year old.

These cars have a rawness that makes thrashing them great.

I love the thing to bits thb
