adi Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 This is what my 306 D-turbo used to look like.... http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/adrian1987_photos/cars/DSCI0101.jpg Then I part ex'd it with a mate and his GTI-6. He let his missus have a go in it and this happened (a week after they got it) http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/adrian1987_photos/cars/DSC00085.jpghttp://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/adrian1987_photos/cars/DSC00084.jpghttp://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/adrian1987_photos/cars/DSC00086.jpghttp://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/adrian1987_photos/cars/durbosmashed.jpg Apparently if there was a passenger they'd have been killed instantly. She hit some mud on a country lane left by a tractor, slid off the road and went arse over tit 3 times into a field. She was unhurt other than whiplash. Needless to say I was quite upset about it as I'd only sold it a week before this happened! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchkev Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 (edited) that always makes me laugh, when someone sells a car and its wrote off a day/week/month/decade later and there pissed off, IT AINT YOUR CAR ANYMORE!!!! on a more serious note, unlucky, glad everyone was ok!

adi Posted September 28, 2009 Author Share Posted September 28, 2009 the reason I was a bit upset about it was cuz I paid 5k for it (I paid too much) and it was the most I'd ever spent on a car, and worked really hard for it. Plus I get quite attached to my cars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GHanson2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I have to say... It looks better in the 2nd pic... Used & Abused... It's French and NOTHING at all and i mean NOTHING good comes out of france! lol On the other note...I built a Citroen AX GT as my first car but couldnt insure it (yes its french lol) i loved the bloody thing i put so much work into it (Anyone whos seen my progress thread will see the type of effort i make all by myself). Anyway it was the first car i ever owned/built and i sold it to a young lad, a few weeks later i found out he was shunted up the rear end by a tanker on his way home, the car was destroyed, he was killed, And then i had a VW Golf a few months ago i built up from scratch, rebuild everything, resprayed it and again it got to its new home and was stolen & burned out less than 3 days later. Quite hurt seeing both of them destroyed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adi Posted September 29, 2009 Author Share Posted September 29, 2009 that car was a 2litre HDi with a remap and full stainless with de-cat, pulled about 130bhp iirc. And all the 4 306's I've had would out handle an escort anyday I'm sorry to say! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andaba Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Love 306's, especially on the cyclone wheels.That roof looks pretty caved in, nasty stuff! Good job she wasn't in an Escort! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KNITERIDER Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 esorts hold up pretty well to landing on the roof as i and others can confirm better than that anyway! lol do like the 306's for a basic cheap hatch tho very tuneable as well the hdi's can be remapped to over 160 bhp with an intercooler and a few other bits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
