Been A Long, Long, Long Time.....

Hello boys and girls,

 

Anyone remember me?! Used to own a 309 Good wood, hence the user name (though I must to to Nica about getting it changed to something more grown up...!)

 

Been a while I'll admit, been just as long since I've been in a Peugeot. But now I'm back, and back in a Peugeot. As well as a beach buggy. And a Mondeo daily......

 

Spent two years building this, finishing it in June 2013....

And then 6 mo the at the beginning of 2014 turning this (a Chevy Corvair air cooled flat 6!!) From this...

Into this...

And then stuffing it into the buggy. MUCHOS fun!! 110hp and 160lb/ft of torque in a 550kg buggy.....

 

Anyhow, I can't really use the buggy in the winter, so came into a little cash and bought myself a 306 Rallye...

Took me a while to find a good one.....

 

So I'm back. I know there is a lot of useful pug info here, so I'll be sticking about for a bit...:)
