(Although it worked and would NOT of been an MOT failure, it looked awful lol).

Some nice pictures there, youve put alot of effort into them well done,
Wished i had such skills, ican only do plain boring one's.
Mum loved her 206, not had it a year either! At the end of the day that little 206 came up against a HGV and my Father was able to get out the car although hurt. WOMAN who caused the accident fled the scene, luckily there were witnesses and Dad's here to tell the tale, although deeply traumatized. He used to co-drive in many rallies in the 80's and said this is by far the hardest smash he has ever been in, says he could see the car going under the HGV frame Have you posted pictures of yours? I'd like to be nosey now lolAhhh nolozz wrote:Idont have a 406 sonia,
ihad one a week ago but ilet it go, it was only apetrol one so igot bored with it
atm ive got 306 and a little renault convertable, idont think iwill be getting another 406.. saddly ilive in a high risk area
so insurance on the 406s dosent work out logical, if it wasnt for that iwouidnt own anything else,
Any pictures of the 306? Mum is looking at more 206's but I think they may be tempted to go for a 306..... I told them to go for a 406 but they told me I was biased?

The 3 bulbs behind the display needed changing, all 3 had blown! A simple enough job, nice and easy to start with! I then replaced the stereo to another factory fitted model as the reader was knackered on the stereo that came with the car.....rwb wrote:That really does look very tidy indeed
That rev counter goes round an awful long way
What did you do to the MFD screen? It kind of looks like you just turned the contrast up? Although admittedly, I do not know how to do that on the Type B MFD.
206/306/406/... you pays your money you takes your choice. You do get an awful lot more for your money with a 406 though, and it's a no-brainer as to which I'd prefer to sit in.

I could never feel safe in a 206 anyway, ever worse where I live now (where the drivers are just mental) so perhaps you could persuade your mum to get something with a bit more metal round it (Sherman tank?)
Your car certainly does look clean and straight, I particularly like the sticker (where's Bailes?
Luckily they caught the woman driver (she does no justice for women drivers like me.......) the Police had to convince her she was at fault... Over take on the brow of a hill, cause a serious accident then flee the scene - what kind of a stupid........ (Don't get me started again!) lol

That's a mighty smart looking 406 you have there.
(Love the sticker - as steve say's one immediately thinks of young Bailles, (who has had a 406, then a focus, then another 406 and now a mondeo - clearly he's at an impressionable age and can be forgiven for a little ford-curiosity).
Thanks....... I was unlucky enough to drive that Tranny for a little while - OMG never again... despite my Fathers love of Fords I shall never be a Ford girl I'm afraid...... Looks tidy Lozz, I did look at a white 306 estate (diesel) before I opted for the 406. I wanted to know if any 306 estates were 7 seaters but sadly not.........lozz wrote:not avery good picture,
but heres one itook when ifirst got it,
306 is a good car, not had any major problems with it and the parts are very cheap,
