af1 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hi I don't know if I ever did give an introductionI love French shiteMy mrs thinks anything over 2 years is old and that it's logical to drop £1000s on a new car to pay £30 road tax Anyway I just sold my 2006 330d through one of those we will buy your camel sites (awaiting pickup and their lower offer) And am getting back Into shite Despite working 50hrs plus a week I can no longer afford a yuppie motah I'm not sure if what I have just purchased is shite by your standards but I know I won't be getting any how's your father for a long time Hopefully it should be a pretty epic collection thread Peace out Junkman and laser wheels 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burraston2006 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Can we have a clue on what you bought? I reckon a Vel Satis or a Shitroen C6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panhard65 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 It could be really really shit asomething like an '03 on megane or scenic, dci for added shittyness. Truly shit rather than shite though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 We like a 306 round here! I reckon you should get a good bout of commuting out of that beastie. Want to tell us about spec, condition and anything else you think we might be interested in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
af1 Posted June 19, 2014 Author Share Posted June 19, 2014 Well, is a 306 rallye, one of only 500 made200 white 200 red and 100 black I believe the rallye name stems back fromThe talbot samba? Basically it's a 306 gti-6 with a lot of *weight saving* **less spec**, for example it doesn't have electric windows, electric mirrors or air con etc.It still has the same 167bhp 2.0 6 speed unit as a gti-6. In the early '90s peugeot released the series 1 106 rallye, which was a homologation special where only 1000 were ever sold in the uk. I may or may not have one of these too. I must admit that i am a bit apprehensive to see the back of the BMW which i bought after a catastrophic failure on my 6 year old 80,000 mile mk5 golf gti.The bmw is a great car for cruising up and down the motorway and is obscenely quick but is just a bit vague around town and not only that, it's also a bit dull looking. I have owned about 5 or so 306's in my life time and this one has always been the holy grail to me so looking forward to getting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wackywacerwill Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 That looks and sounds top notch. Less spec is less stuff to break too so therefore ultimately more. eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asimo Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 "Anyway I just sold my 2006 330d" And just a week after resale the engine will mutate into a random bill generator. Well done. Obviously I hoped it was going to be an Avantime or a CX Ambulance based camper but a 306 2dr is as sweet as a 90s hatchback gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sudsprint Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Doesn't the Rallye name date back to the Simca 1000 Rallye in 1970? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Lobster Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Love Rallye Peugeots, that looks a good 'un. Still regret not buying a new 106 Rallye in blue back in '98 or whenever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooters Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Is that the AX GT? Head case of a car!...306s are splendid cars never had a rally before. The 306 IMHO is the last proper pug. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
af1 Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 That's a 106 rallye undergoing a bit of restoration I have a thread on the owners club if you are interested http://www.106rallyeforum.com/forum2008/showthread.php?t=89853 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
e287yba Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 There was also the 205 Rallye of '88, with the 103bhp quad-Weber carb 1294cc as is in the early (first) 106 Rallyes - with GTI 1.6 seats but sub-GTI instruments and other interior trim plus a paucity of sound-deadening, no electric mirrors etc... Sadly, it was watered down fairly quickly with the 75bhp TU3 engine (not even the 85bhp TU3S of the GT/SR!!) and approximately-GR trim . In the UK, anyway; in Germany, they got the early/first catalysed 1.9GTI engine with 105bhp... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
af1 Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 So, the we will buy your goat man is coming in an hour, bmw has had the finest of Eastern European washes and looks sparkly! Looking like a bit of Wednesday to pick up the Peugeot so that leaves me two days without a car National rail train app is saying over 5 hrs from my sunny part of kent to South Wales.. However that factors in an hour to get from Victoria to Paddington! I'm pretty sure I have walked it quicker than that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
