Sorry to hijack this thread a bit but . . . . .what colour did you use on the Gti6 inlet manifold (I know its black) on your 306 as it looks cool, not too shiny!

 

I'm another for sleeper 6 lump in the gentry!

it didn't make sense because literally everything needed changing and given the shell was a ghastly colour it was easier to get another 205. so got a white 1.6 last night. has an SD 6pt cage and buckets though, which i'll be getting shut of

Until I saw the photos I would say reshell but if the car is as good as it shows on these photos it would be crazy and a waste to "destroy" it!

It looks MINT!

 

Edit: good decision to take another one.
