Hi all,I have recently become an owner of a '6 after owning other 306's for around 5 years!
I am a member of pug306.net and 306oc.co.uk, so some of you may recognise me
Here is my thread from .net anyway
How she arrived courtesy of P Boost
Waiting for me
Right...
MOT Failures = Rear pads low and Rear exhaust system blowing...
Gonna change the pads and get an exhaust from Raz tomorrow. So all being well that will be it and this will be at FCS
My plans = P3 boot, P3 Nile rub strips and my speedlines in non green
Silver dash trim in
ISOfix system fitted
Changed the stalks over aswell, my twin optic one wasn't faded like the one in the '6...
Bought the gloss black fuel cap trims off Gareth7, so they will be fitted for FCS
Its slowly coming together!
Rain has once again stopped play
Its the little things that make the difference right?
Silver badged steering wheel
Silver trim around the clocks
And to prove I have 6 gears
MOT is booked for 4pm Friday... Need to sort the failures out now
