My 306 GTI 6

Lovely looking car there. One of the last proper hatch designs before they all started mimicking MPVs

However, get those Pirelli ditchfinders off poste haste

lucky bstard!


very rare to get one that low mileage.. i was looking afew months ago

did you get it from sportshatch in Reading ? they had a low mileage red one not so long ago

[dafw]

Very nice, a future classic!

[haggy]

Please keep it that way! & keep it!

[shalmaneser]

She's a beauty, these are a steal at the moment - diablo is a great colour for them aswell!

Engine sounds lovely too, Mmmm...

[schnell]

The last proper hot hatch IMO i.e. the sort that would and could quite easily kill you.

I bought mine with 34k on the clock a couple of years back, it was a cracker and huge fun.

Have fun!

Very nice, love the colour. Almost bought the Gti-6 that was the SOTW recently, but I was beaten to it

[nismo48]

That goes for me too..It sold in super fast time...!!

A friend of mine had a china blue GTI6 that I borrowed quite a few times, they are brilliant fun

I bought my 306 HDi from them - top people there, really good service.

I had two.

Great cars, nothing beats them for a grand.

I love Diablo Red its an awesome colour and that is a stunning example of a 306GTi-6 Top motor

I drive a 2001 Xsara VTS, same engine and chassis.

Cracking car to drive for the money, plenty fast enough and the engine sounds fantastic with an uprated Induction-cone style air filter.

Watch out for lift off over steer though, had a few hairy moments!

Get the cam belt changed!

Some people will not go near it or even think about it until 50k, but time is a killer too.

36k or 3 years on these is recommended on 306 Forums IIRC

Every 30k is what I would say.

You heard of them popping between 30 and 36? Ouch. I knew they were bad for that, but not that bad!

Yup, 30k is probably the limit for me.

Lovely car Rocky.
I had two and loved them both. Got the second after the first one threw its cambelt at about 40k miles!
