This should really be added to my previous comprehensive post, but this is just to notify of recent additions.
Last March I bought a 2000 Peugeot 306 XT sedan with 4 mths rego for $2,100, as a spare car and also a potential missusmobile (when she extracts the proverbial digit & finally gets her licence
). It has a 2l DOHC injected 4 banger with auto, and while worlds away from the Futura, not a bad little unit for what it is.
Today I bought another 306, this one a 1997 5dr manual hatch (for $2K less than the first one....!), as a donor car for hard to get spares.
Henry's finest had its Manchester gas tank OKed for another decade yesterday, and today only failed its pink slip on the rear tyres.
