sorta near blackburn brakes? theres another place near ewood too, not sure what his prices are like. i wanted to renew the suspension as the fronts knocking so thought id upgrade to '6 shocks and eibach springs but wanted to but another subframe/ steering rack etc. so i could sort them before they went on the car. its never gonna be the fastest car but it handles well and has surprised a few on corners! any mods on yours yet?

keep thinking of a '6 engine in the wagon, its my work vehicle though. i couldnt bring myself to buy a transit so got an estate. crossed my mind bout a 2.2 hdi (single or twin turbo) ecosse peugeot quoted £4500 for a 140bhp single turbo though! thinking of a remap instead and a few handling mods.

you two should write to each other...you can be pen pals. write to each other every week for 50 years and then tell a newspaper your story that you two were penpals and 50 years later you have found out you both live in the same town, one at the bottom end and the other at the top end... then we will all laugh about it in our 306 hdi estates....

get a room guys...! we dont all need to see you hitting on each other..

I live in Rishton, but sold my 6 three years ago.

I have a red R26 now.

There is a moonstone six in Accy (nixx I think), a Diablo driven by a bell end near whitebirk - although thats where I have seen him a few times.

I wouldn't bother with either of the breakers around here. Both have bad reps.

If you want someone who can work on your car local then Audi Motorsport in Great Harwood are good. Jamie runs his own little garage - he knows his way around a 306.
