Following on from my recent 'whats it worth thread' here is a for sale thread!!1999 Cherry Red Rallye, Covered just over 113k, the mileage shown in the photo will increase a little as I need to drive it home from where it was mot'd.
Fairly standard example with the only modifications being black masks, 16" pro race 1.2, solid crank pulley, braided brake lines and roller bearing wishbone bushes.
Reluctant sale but I'm realistically not going to use it anytime soon with an expanding family, a partially renovated house and not enough hours in the day!
Ive owned it for around 3 years, bought it off the forum with head gasket failure so at that time and roughly 500 miles ago the headgasket, valve stem oil seals, cambelt, waterpump, exhaust manifold gasket, aux belt etc etc was replaced.
I think I have receipts for the parts but the machine work was done cash in hand by a very well respected engineer.
Mechanically it is in very good order and drives/pulls as it should.
The paintwork in my opinion is what lets it down a little, the front end, roof and side skirts have faded and there is lacquer peel on the o/s/f wing and a couple of small spots on the roof, I have tried to photograph this as best as I can but it is quite hard to get it to show up in photos! We all know that Cherry Red is common for this so shouldn't be much of a surprise!
There is no panel damage and bodywork is extremely straight, maybe the odd tiny tiny pin dent but really is in brilliant nick for 17ish years old.
The interior is in excellent condition as the photos show, it will be shown a hoover before it goes but I ran out of time today, there is currently no head unit fitted but if required I'm sure I can find an old one if required so you would have at least a radio for the way home!
There is a genuine Peugeot centre section and back box fitted which has covered around 3-400 miles and was bought new by me from Peugeot.
There will be spares that go with it:
Xsara VTS phase 1 steering rack
Cyclones x5 with varying condition tyres, none of them anything special though. +16 standard wheel bolts
Pair of crystal headlights
An engine under tray which would require some tlc
A proper decat pipe.
I have got 4x195/50/15 tyres that are legal which the new owner would be welcome to if desired.
An airbox which needs a rub down and re-paint plus a bit of pipework
A pattern centre section with scorpion stainless steel backbox welded to it (would prob need to be cut to fit it in?!)
+ Any other 306 related items I find!
Has fairly extensive history, stamped upto 96k then receipts from then on, there is a good folder full of paperwork.
Has a category 1 alarm and immobiliser with 2 fobs (1 needs a battery)
Just thinking as I'm writing and there is no spare wheel cage fitted, didn't have one when I got it.
In my whats it worth thread I said I suspected the radiator was weeping, I have now changed my mind to thinking it may be the heater matrix, The reason I have changed my mind is when I turned the fans on full to help clear the screen everything misted up and there is a slight smell of coolant and after a bit of reading on here it sounds like that's matrix, there is no noticeable wet patch in passenger footwell so may be unrelated but that's what I think it probably is!
The radiator I believe to be the original one which in all honesty could do with changing in the not too distant future but is not currently leaking.
I have taken several photos to try and show the paint imperfections, I did struggle to capture it so please don't turn up expecting a minter paintwork wise.
Any specific questions please ask and if there any specific photos required I'll do my best to oblige!
