Good Points

Well equipped with all the luxuries

Very fast, with a chassis to match

Brakes very good as standard

Six speed gear box

People don't realise the power it has!

Still a good looking car

Bad Points

Heavy fuel consumption(when driven hard)

Flimsy bodywork picks up car park 'dings'

Steering lock is embarrassingly bad-caused by the six speed 'box'.

General Comments

The Peugeot 306 2.0 16v GTi-6, hot hatch of the 1990s?

A subtle car, few realise that beneath its bonnet lies an 167bhp monster of an engine, with a six speed box to compliment it. The 306 is well regarded as a good all round hatch that handles and drives superbly. A '6' takes this a level higher with great road holding, responsive steering and fantastic brakes.What really makes this such a great car is the whole package. A car capable of keeping up with 20+k sports cars,but also having (half)leather seats, air-con, 6 disc cd and all the other mod cons. For myself i enjoy the fact that few realise how powerful it is, only the dished 15" alloys, side skirts and discreet '6' badges give the game away. A word of caution-maintainance is essential, particulary on replacing the cam belt. Many owners have their enjoyment cut short when said belt fails at 45k or less!

Respect given for 6miester's review.
