bob - do you have the original supplying dealer details amongst the paperwork? The number plate looks very familiar (as do the air horns) - it would have been supplied by Taylors Peugeot if it's my dad's old car.

Cracking car, and lovely resto. Enjoy.

I shall check through the docs this evening, I have the original invoice and even the trade in docs for the owners previous car (Astra SRi I think).

I'll let you know!

Take a look at Baker Bushes & Mountings website for some 309 parts. They do lots of little bits that make a massive difference to the car. Stuff like replacement gear linkages and bushes etc, makes the gear change a lot more precise. Plus engine hoses etc

You could also try 205gtidrivers.com the forum is a wealth of knowledge and there are quite often 309 parts for sale too.

I had to join up just to say "that is fantastic". May I be one of those weirdo people who letch after your car?

Great handling (better than 205) and looks cool, 130 hp per tonne. Good effort

Looks brilliant after the re spray.

I had a Graphite Grey one for a few years ( post halfway down http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... )

Great handling car

I'll definitely take a look at their stuff. nect job is to get the engine bay sorted out so I'll be needing new hoses and under bonnet parts to make it look nice.

Cheers Jamesy! Welcome to PH by the way! Thanks for the kind words, I still have a long way to go to get the old girl finished but I suppose that is all the fun of the project!

Cheers s m. I always liked the graphite grey cars. I haven't seen one for sale in that colour for a long time now, would be nice to get hold of one though. Yours looked lovely.
