Well it's been a long time coming (almost 20 years) but I fear my not so recent Diablo purchase will sadley be my last. I've been stock piling parts to create an oe looking but upgraded 6 that I can enjoy on a daily basis.

at last count I've had / saved around 30 gti6s and a handful of rallyes some of which are still on the forum. Yes

I'm not a massive fan of taking pics but rather just get things done but I will try and take some as I go along with the Diablo.

For those who don't know my first 6 was a Diablo so it's fitting my last will be a Diablo.

I know bud I keep saying no more then I buy another but this is now the last gti6 I save from the nasty breakers who are just in it for the money and not for the love of the last iconic cars Peugeot delivered.

I'm keeping 2 of these epic cars in the family but have decided it's time to move on Big grin

Started with a Diablo and I will end with a Diablo - gti6s will always hold a place in my heart Yes even now I love the stance and presence they have compared to the new s**te being churned out Razz

You saved my Rallye mate and I'm eternally grateful. I'd love for you to carry on saving these cars and you may get a thirst for doing it again as they get older but as long as you've still got a '6 on the drive and rock up at pugfest each year then all is good.

Let's have sum pics tho for the thread Plz!!

Seats went in over the weekend

Cam belt kit and waterpump all done (all oe items)

Removed passenger airbag and replaced with top glove box

Serviced with all genuine parts and even back flushed the cooling system

Rebuilding some front hubs at the moment - just finished painting up so lower arms before I rebuild those as well
