[Benzyl]

Visiting in France lots of old French cars about but saw this beauty

[320touring]

Saturday 13th Sept 2025 in the southside of Glasgow..

What? You did ask🤣

 

Cracking spot though!

[Remspoor]

Loads around here in Spain.

Just now on the eBay tat thread.

[MrBig]

About a week ago. Buddy of mine has one of the JDM GTI Autos that didn't sell in Japan and got sent back to the UK!

I will admit I might be an exception though 😉

[garbaldy]

A few weeks ago in berwick a gold colour but can't find pics I took of it last year.   A red 3 door  td round the corner from me at the old Wood yard,   lastly a white 3 door at Yetholm.   

[Split_Pin]

The last time I recall seeing one was at Performance Vauxhall, Santa Pod, June 2008. 

[UltraWomble]

Bump for a J reg Proton fred.

[Snipes]

I think Japan got the 205 GTI auto as well, leather and A/C. Really nice cars. 

I had a 309 GTI and loved it, but that was 1997.

Who was the hero on here that welded one up in a car park?!

6th July 2025 

Peugeot Festival 2025. A lot of very nice 309s

[robt100]

Saw one 2 days ago wizzing round the countryside just east of Rome. Seem to like their old chod out there seems everyone has an old 4x4 Panda, and even saw a lovely gold late 80s rover 216!

[Spottedlaurel]

Saw a couple in everyday use in France this year, plus one at a meet - I'll upload some photos of that later as it's quite appropriate to this place.

Last drive of my early GR ended rather abruptly in 1991:

Managed to spin off the road and park upsidedown in what I believe was the cellar of a long-gone house.

 

 

Needless to say it was a write-off......

[IronStar]

Yesterday, 3 door one in falling apart condition, probably used as a food delivery hack, judging by where it was parked. 

[Benzyl]

I have fond memories of my mates green 309 GTI Back in the 90'S

[Lonestar]

11th May this year. Basingstoke Festival of Transport.

Here was mine. 

[ProgRocker]

I saw this at a car show in either 2021 or 2022. Local Norfolk registration. A GL "Special Equipment" no less!

 

[angle]

Last one I took a a photo of - in Cuba.

28th June this year in St Albans!

[mk2_craig]

I saw several in France over the summer, but I didn’t think any were remarkable enough to bother photographing. I did snap this 206+ though. When did you last see a 206+?

I'm not sure if I'd know I had seen one, kind of forgotten that they even existed.

 

AS racing beige 309 seen at the French meet we got to:

 

[ProgRocker]

Not recent. 12 years ago when I used to walk around Norwich taking photos I spotted this base spec 309. Another Norfolk reg.

Unfortunately, @greengartside spotted it in a scrapyard a few months later.

My eldest sister's then Father-In-Law had use of a 3 door 309 from new. I think the reg was F65 CKO.  

[Paul-l]

Yesterday, just outside of Stroud . Nice shade of bergundy,or red 
you’ll have to use your imagination as I haven’t got a picture!

These look way better with body coloured bumpers. Did Peugeot do any from the factory with them? Even the GTi has black ones.

This morning 😀

[FakeConcern]

I have seen a 309 fairly recently, but the last picture I took of one was at Spring Action Day 2022...

Yep, Domestic Management's dad had one.  Sadly, it got parked in a tree quite hard.

Couple of works ago onnthe French motorway nearby the French-Belgian border.
