Your new one looks nice in those pics, the calipers don't look like brembos though.

I'm really starting to like mine, I didn't realise how much quicker they are than a standard 6 untill I drove home yesterday, it felt like something was wrong with it lol. And the v6 roar is seriously addictive

Tidy, I don't think they need them anyway, mine is on standard 6 brakes and stops more than well enough for on the road, I'm sure you'd soon cook them on track though.

Lazy driving sums them up well, I've never owned a car where I watch the speedo so much as it's so effortless getting up to naughty speeds you don't notice your doing it.

Just hope for your sake you have better luck with this new one than your other 306's

I'm going to have to see this V6 Jack, not seen one before and I imagine it would be pretty awesome. Be good if my car is back on the road to compare the difference in them

when i first got mine, before rebuild and everything solid i did 40-140mph in 19 seconds

Got a video the same but in my R34 380BHP and it gets some what slower then the V6 (power to weight obviously)

They are quick but I think its the low/mid torque you feel more than anything. Especially out of corners.
The D9 is a different beast again. A lot more top end and a much fatter mid range. Low range isn't as good though. One of those in a 306 on a DTA with cams would be quite something

I personally (except mine) have not seen a GTI V6 they all seem to been Xsi converted apart from the red rally that was done.

Yeah come to think of it neither have I.

I won this car (pretty sure it was this one) in an EBAY auction about 2 - 3 weeks ago, Odd considering I didnt remember bidding on it. Turns out a few friends and i were bidding on it drunk and then completely forgot. LOL

Phoned the guy up and he was really decent about it, Said he had another guy waiting, Must have been dendle.

Dont get me wrong, I did want it. But the travel would have cost more than half the price of the car!
