I would personally say that was more like threading the 406 Dturbo down a B road, rather than the rallye. I know why I like it. I don't love it though. Its a very good car end of. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

I have given up explaining to people the ask why I have spent all the money and time I have on a 306. It's mental really but they are just a really enjoyable car to have a blast in and the fact that it does'nt scream racer or nob-end to everyone that sees it is all to the good. Of course, people have probably seen me razzing about in mine (not lately though)and think nob-end but at least I'm happy  ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

Maybe sometime next week - got to look into the driveshafts and top mount first if I decide to go that route. It would be fairly rude not to, but lets see what this engine is like first.Have to source a V6 flywheel still and i've just got the gearbox sorted. Wheels and leathers should easily cover the car cost ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

I have thought about swapping the box to a manual and driving it, but too much hassle imo.________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

Picked it up today after having a few snow related issues (ie getting the van stuck). Its in very good nick indeed with a huge folder of receipts. Going to change the gearbox oil as it drives (only when oil is cold though) and see if it fixes it.After that i've no idea what to do now!  ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

Well thing is both cars are in about the same condition, in fact the 406 is probably better. Pretty much full Peugeot service history (thousands spent christ!).The mint alloys with new Michelins are worth more than I paid and the interior is immaculate  ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |
