Get the sunroof plated then. The number of 1.9's with no sunroof is quite low and that one has all of the bits that you could want. Good suspension, a great engine, spare wheels, seats, harnesses, cage.....the lot.

At two grand you even have budget to get Chris to do the roof properly. I think your main problem with the principle Ben is that you want a mint example with all of the bits for a budget that will buy you one or the other, not both.

Better to be out there 'doing it' than pondering and deliberating, watching everyone else have fun.

Go on........treat yourself in time for Marham :)

What does anyone know about 306's ... is the 205 better ? ... or would you go with the 306 - it sounds like it's good to go ... and bloody cheap!.

Do these have special engines over the non rallye model ? ...

If it was me I would go with the 306 its a much newer car.
I loved my HDi great handling car out the box, parts are readily available, if you don’t buy it I might.

If it's not a silly question - would you view it first before pressing buyitnow as it's a long way to drive to find that some one has pressed that button before you get there!.

I love ebay but hate it as the same time!.

Pot luck i guess, go for it. They have very good feedback.

PS how good is your feedback?

feedback isn't an issue - 84 positive

After checking on the insurance for this car I'm going to have to give it a miss. Seems to be a high risk vehicle .... they won't apply my ten years no claims to it.

Why don't you buy it :) and sell me the AX ... so plan now based on cheap insureable cars is either the 205 but most likely a 172.
