Wilko220 Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Too many cars, too little space and a bill to pay for lots of shiny brown paint means that I am offering up for sale this cute little bundle of Gallic charm. KEY FACTS:Peugeot 306 'Miami'1997 R-reg1360cc petrol POWAR 5-speed manual gearboxApprox 63,000 milesMOT until April 2014Lots of service history. It has an electric sunroof (which works) but keep fit windows and is otherwise pretty basic spec (no central locking, no rev counter). It does come complete with a flash after-market JVC radio / CD player though. I'm not much of a mechanic but it seems to my amateur assessment to be mechanically ok. Has a small oil leak but nothing that occasional topping up can't deal with. At the last MOT the following advisories were listed:Offside rear shock absorber has slight corrosion to the casingOffside rear brake hose has slight corrosion to ferrulesFront brake discs rusty inner sideI fitted a new battery (with a four-year guarantee) in February. In April, it had a new oxygen sensor fitted. Although it looks presentable from a distance, the bodywork is a bit shabby close up, with doors being the worst areas. All would appear to be cosmetic and fairly easy to rectify if required. In case anyone recalls the randomly clicking indicators problem mentioned on this forum a few months ago, I have now fixed this and they work fine. The car is located in Hertfordshire, a stone's throw from the A1, M1 and M25. Happy to take additional pics or answer further questions about the car. Equally very happy to offer tea or cheap beer to anyone who fancies popping round to have a closer look. £400 sound reasonable?

theorganist Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Bugger since I bought the Fiesta (which I am happy with) suddenly loads of really nice motors turn up. Funny how it has an electric sunroof which I would have though was quite a high spec item but no central locking, electric windows, rev counter etc!

Wilko220 Posted July 16, 2013 Author Share Posted July 16, 2013 I suppose that's what the "Miami" special edition entailed. I thought it particularly strange that the roof is electric but the windows wind-up. I expect they probably had a job lot of them to get rid of or something...

phil_lihp Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 That looks like an absolute bargain and one of the best colours these came in, I do like these oddly specced special editions, usually consisting of a base model with one random electrical goody and a cheerful metallic paint colour.

nacho man Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I am using a 306 dizzler at the mo and I have really warmed to it, great on fuel and pretty comfy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilko220 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 Quick bump in case anyone missed this first time around. Still available. To reward you for looking, here is an old Peugeot promo shot which makes even Des's eBay efforts seem good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince70 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I had a base spec 1.4 and it was a fantastic car,Mine had the rev counter and the central locking but your better off without the central locking as it has a habit of going wrong anyway.My sister in laws car goes in tomorrow for repairs and if it costs to much to repair I will tell her about your motor she's only had 4 cars but two of them were 306s so she may be interested.
