Hi! Newbie intro & some car pics

Post by nick-rallye »

Hi all!

I'm Nick, drive a Peugeot 306 Rallye and live near Stansted Airport.

Was directed to the site by 'Mikeb', so thought I would check it out!

Hoping to get into the trackday scene this year, with my first outing at Snetterton at the end of Feb.

Anyway, here are some pics and spec or the car at the moment. I intend to get new front brakes and uprated pads next. Also get the top of the front screen tinted as I cant use the sunvisors anymore, but I may just get a black sunstrip...

Cheers and see you around!

I love that Nick :thumbs:

I loved my old 306, no where near this, and have recently been looking into Rallye's as an all rounder. Cracking cars for the money, that's for sure. (Not a fan of the amount of lock but there we are)

Welcome to the forum and the best of luck for your forthcoming track days.

Hi and welcome to BP.

Unless you're loaded, don't ask Mike for advice on what mods to do next. :D
