Yeah think 306 is better suited for that. Although compared to the 406 the 306 feels like a shopping trolley.
Maybe a Ford Focus 1.8TDCi 115. After a remap they will outrun a Focus ST170!

Buy a bluefin (Usually around the same price and/or cheaper then a remap).
You get a handheld unit with a few maps on it.
You can change and swap the maps as you wish! Good value for money in my opinion!

And like I said a 115ps 1.8 remapped will run rings around an ST170!

Theres a guy on my facebook who's always got a status about what car he's mapped that day, i saw a few weeks back he had mapped a TDCI.

Give him a shout if only to compare prices.
