Decent MOT history too. I rate 306s very highly. They cruise at motorway speeds very competently and are also a good laugh on twisty roads. Lift-off oversteer is easy to provoke. Anybody want to pick that up for me? I'll come down and collect it once I roffle off the BMW.

I found creating a ‘breaking’ ad on eBay got best response.

SiC Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 I dunno, those 207 are firmly in the sub grand point now. Could be something like lost a job and need money asap. Or bought a new car and dealers offering sub-scrap or refusing to have it.
eddyramrod Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 You just described my Tacuma, so a 207 the same age in the same bracket isn't that much of a surprise.;
Kiltox Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 I reckon I could see £995 for that all day long if it’s not buggered
stephen01 Posted November 13, 2018 Posted November 13, 2018 I've been looking at 207's and that's stupid cheap, the ad reads like it's her husbands and he's pissed her off so she's flogging it! Trouble, keep away. SiC 1
