Morning everyone...
I've got myself a 96 406 stdt 1.9 which we have decided to call grapma... being grampa spec.
Electric front windows, winder rears, white cloth interior, and wine red in color.
In the family we have a 04 307 XSP and a 88 205 MI16 racecar also.
I'm looking at playing with the fuel pump to get a bit more go out of grampa and hopefully use it as a tow car, concidering at the moment it can't really move itself out the way of things i think it might be asking a bit much from the wee old thing...
Previously i've have a 96 306 S16 and a 92 205 GT

You have a 307 XSP? Is that similar to the 2.0 XSi 307?

Re: Hell from New Zealand
Hahaha there might have been a small typo... Hello not Hell...
Yup Welly, the car is that wine red color with white/cream cloth interior. I'm not sure on the exact factory options for it, does anyone on here have access to a pug database where you can look up the vin/chassis number and see what it came out of the factory with?
I think it's got the upgraded speakers in it as there is tons of volume and bass from the factory unit.
My car is essentially this but with different wheels... http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motor ... 961447.htm
I've also removed that black tape from between the front and rear windows as it was cracked and pealing.
I'll put some pics up tonight.
The 307 is the girlfriends: From what we where told it's XS Premium, not sure of the differances between the XSP and the XSI.
Its got full leather interior, rain sensing wipers, auto lights, limited edition 17's, but no sunroof or cruise control.
Its also now got H&R lowering springs, Simota carbon CAI, Stubby Antenna, 35% Tints, Upgraded aftermarket sound system, i've got the factory rear spoiler to go on also once it's painted. This is what it looked like before most of the fore-mentioned

The 205....

Sorry about the get up it was for a cannonball run early this year....
