Well most of you know already but here's my 2001 X-Reg Peugeot 306 GTI-6.

Now over the last 15 years I've had over 10 different 306 GTI-6's/306 Rallyes including 2 supercharged versions but for the last 5 years I've switched alliances to the other baguette brigade in the form of Renault Megane R26 and a Megane Renaultsport 250.

An impending house move now means I'll have my very own garage where I can tinker to my hearts content and what better house warming gift can you get than a 19 year old french car right?

The car in question turned up locally and is a relatively low owner low mileage example.

Previous owner has had the car for 11 years and now moved onto something newer in the for of an 308 GT.

When I went to see the car next to it was parked another 306 this time an 1999 V-Reg XSI model that the previous owner had bought to pilfer spares from.

Deal was done for the GTI-6 and the guy kindly chucked the XSI in the price instead of just scrapping it.

Plans are just to slowly tidy it up and restore it as I go along.

So with the house move I've had zero time to do any work on the car but that hasn't stopped me buying bits for the car.



And then following on from Ben_W's post on the facebook group I went and bought the following

•Front discs
•Front pads
•Rear discs
•Rear pads
•Cambelt kit
•Waterpump
•Thermostat
•Passenger fog light



Moving day was on Friday so once all the furniture was in then it was time to sort the toys out






Here she is in her home for the next few weeks while I sort the house out



And finally just for reference how big modern hot hatches are after 10 years
