BOUGHT!!!! Hopefully collecting on sunday if its ready! pictures coming soon!!
i went for the Polaris Blue in the end as i couldnt find a flame red one that wasnt automatic, but i think in the end ive made the right choice!!
Nice mate, glad to hear you finally found one. Can't wait to see it!
Alway's liked the 406 Coupe, must be something to do with the pininfarina stylin'
Got anything special in mind for it?
Is that the pale blue colour or the bright blue, both very nice colours, and what engine is it. hope its the 3.0 V6 200ish brake monster
quick tech spec:
Polaris Blue (the really bright one with a tinge of green flip in it)
3.0 24v v6 engine 210bhp
brembo brakes,
as far as mods go im keepin it subtle,
code in all the side strips and black bits, some 18" wheels lower it and possibly an exhaust but its just had a new one put on so shame to waste it. paying for it on sunday and collecting the sunday after i hope
Watch this space!!!
Brembo brakes, screw me! thats impressive.
so what of the 106, if your sellin it could you pm me with details. really like that car
really like it, tom its bloody gorgeous!!
406 coupe tho, nice!! cant wait to see pics!
sounds quality mate, cnt wait 2 see it,
ill be pickin it up on sunday the 12th Feb! im goin to see it and pay for it today so ill take my camera with me and get some nice pics for yas all, so ill be at MNR with it next week and pop Down the rock at some point that week, is there a day most people meet up? or just pop down wheneva?
All paid for collecting next sunday! couldnt get any pictures because my i forgot to put the memory card back in my camera b4 i left! "idiot",
popped into Halfords in Chester on my way home and ordered myself a nice 18" set of these babies!!!
wheels are smart, id of gone for a more subtle approach myself but they are nice and classy still
Mmmm, can't go wrong with momo's matey, they're gorgeous and they'll suit the car too.
will stand out like a limp willy in a porno, quality.
wish they wud!, had a call from halfords today those wheels are 2005 stock so they cant get hold of them anymore, gona see if i can get hold of them anywhere else where they may have reserve stock maybe, otherwise ill have to pick some different ones.. GUTTED
what do we think of soem oxigins?
or the none limited edition Momo GTR's?
still look damn sweet but not quite as kick ass as the Ltd Editions
IDEA OF THE CENTURY!!!!! how much do u think sprayforce would charge to paint the lettering in the same as the limited edition???
it would cost a lot.
still do it if you have the money. or just leave them plain, still look sweet as a nut
paint it yourself the lettering is that small that any inperfection wont stand out, and i dnt think it will be much to get done properly, speak to pete in automotion I £50-£100

i love automotion
go there matey
Personally,i think momos are pretty damn xpensive,especially in 18". Any other 5 spoke designs u like?
flat kahn five spokes would suit it a treat
turns out now momo wheels are rare as rockin horse shit at the moment anyway, gona be april b4 anyone can get hold of any momo wheels brand new! so its either wait or pick somethin else unfortunatly...
gary put up a pic of them wheels, or if anyone else knows of some good 5 spoke 18"'s put a pic up for me ! gona start lookin for others now,
cant have deep dish rims without gettin spacers though, cos of the brembo brakes on it, cheers for your help guys!
Rare is good! Wait for them, I would, they'll suit the car so well. Could lower it in the meantime or something.
ive got them on order jimbo, with the option of changin my mind just came across these, but im not sure if multi-spoke are gona be as nice as the momo's..... what are your thoughts..
decided after much thought, theres nothin i like as much as the momo's they are the perfect wheels, and like the perfect pint of guiness worth waiting for, will wait to get it lowered though just incase i lower it too much or not enuf and then it looks crap or have to get it done again, 5 weeks will go quite quickly i hope!
4 days to go!!!
Lookin forward to seein this mate. I know they are quick!
Tho' the Oxy's are nice, I think U made the right choice with the Momo's.

your lookin forward to it!!! i cant wait to get my hands on it on sunday! the days are going so slowly for me this week feels like i been waitin a month for it already!
ordered a green induction kit for it today shud add roughly 5 to 10 bhp, not puttin that on till my 3 month warranty has ran out though.
Nice motors them i like it.
Them wheels look nice think they will set the car off nice.
cheers tupac and thanks everyone for your help, gotta wait possibly till roughly the 1st of april for the wheels though! which is crap, and if anyone got a trolley jack or axel stands i may need to borrow them to put the wheels on as i dont trust standard peugeot jacks, they too flimsy for my liking,
If you wanna pop round to mine when you get the wheels mate I'll give you a hand with them. Got a trolley jack here and an airline to put the nuts on with. Takes three minutes max to fit four wheels
looks georgeous matey, great choice
looks quality bet ur well made up arnt ya???
looks lovely mate, very classy
exhaust standard or not?
exhaust is standard apparently as far as im aware well made up with it just been to chester in back movin mercs and bm's out of my way lol, if anyones out at mnr or the rock later on ill bring it down so see you there if u goin
It's gorgeous mate, absolutely stunning. I read a report on these once that said they deserved a prancing horse on the badge for the styling. I can't help but agree with that, it's just so sleek. Looking forward to seeing it in person, sorry i couldn't be at mnr.
thanks everyone for your comments, much appreciated didnt see anyone i know tonight part from aggy! where has everyone gone? andway first mods on it are done
V6 badge on the back ;P (tacky i know but hey!)
Some nice mats
Air freshner, +15bhp
other mods to come
Green Induction Kit (end of month)
Momo Gtr's 18" (end or march)
possibly an exhaust upgrade but not sure yet.
looks really smart that mate.have you stopped smilin yet?
lol no ..... got my alloys today was very suprised!!! so have some more pics to put up tomorrow with them on
Those brembo calipers are facking huge! Gutted we couldn't get the front wheels on, give me a bell when you've got the spacers.
Back ones have gone on a treat, really suit the car.
Been trying for ages to get these pics up but adobe photodelux seems to have flucked up
Nevermind, i'll try again tomorrow for ya mate.
thats very nice hun!
iv never really looked twice at these cars when iv seen them but lookin at it, its really nice!
good choice of car
cheers for the pics jimbo m8, thanks again for all your help fittin the rear two, in drag racer mode at the mo! hopefully halfords are gona sort me out with some proper momo spacers rather than the universal jobs, glad i only need two cos im rekonin they aint gona be cheap :S
lol i was right!!! 31 quid for 2 spacers!! and long bolts! duno what im gona do with my locking nuts now, gona need longer ones i guess... got a nice green induction kit sitting in my boot, so when i can be arsed seein how i rip the current filter box out ill put my new filter in, thats all for the moment really
looks nice, remember to carry some of the old short bolt when you have to put your spare wheel on.
green Kit Wudnt fit!!!
just have to take it easy when im drivin it!
looks well sweet with the wheels now on mate.
i know what you mean about fuel
at the weekend get some daylight pics up.
i raced a fiesta ST170 the other day id have won if not for the wheelspinning at the start!
I had the same mpg problem in my 325 but when you press the loud pedal its worth it.
Nice wheels sits alittle high though you goung to lower it?
Wheels are gorgeous mate, suit it well. Now get it slammed!
tax and servicing are the next mods im afraid!
then ill think about droppin it, prob save up and get soem decent cobra or spax coilovers for it
Looks good with the wheels on mate, you got any long term plans?
i got some ideas, possibly some carbon fibre, spoiler and front spilter but mainly im gona be tuning the engine up.
Sold My 106 now, shed a little tear she will be sorely missed, i think ill keep my sig for the time being, only went today and i miss her already, tis a dark day, think ill go cheer myself up on 15 quids worth of fuel and break out the loud pedal for a bit
with this flurry of cash uve recieved from the 106 will we be seeing some mods coming thick and fast or the money going elsewhere?
sorry to disappoint not alot planned for this baby looks good enough as it is! didnt have much left after i paid my dad back the 2 grand i owed him from buyin my 406 so what i got left im spending on a service its in sprayforce today gettin that done, got my MOMO's on and lookin fine gona get it lowered when i got enough money then if i do anything else itll be under the hood!
