Winter project
The sparrows are still falling dead from the roof, but before you know it it will be autumn. The time to purchase a convertible, because prices are now falling. This Peugeot 306 can also keep you busy when it is not convertible weather.
The colder months are fast approaching and that means that the ‘convertible buying season’ has opened again. We go looking and find a convertible in our used car range that is perfect for the cold months (provided you have a warm and covered place to work), because it still needs some attention before you can take it for a stroll in the spring of 2024.
Peugeot 306
You may wonder why, but the provider describes this Peugeot 306 Cabriolet as a fixer-upper. Externally, however, there does not seem to be much to criticize about the 306 Cabriolet and the roof does not necessarily look bad either. It doesn’t look bad on the inside either. Our suspicion is that the renovation is mainly due to the technical aspects. A look under the hood reveals something strange. Some engine hoses are missing, which may indicate that something is wrong with the engine (apart from the fact that hoses are now missing). It may be a failed project.
So it is a risk to purchase the car, because where do you get in? At the same time, this can also be a great opportunity. Peugeots 306 Cabriolets are quite popular and have risen somewhat in price in recent years. At €1,500, the asking price of this example is quite a rock bottom price and it may not even look that bad. In terms of parts supply, especially engine-wise, things are still going well and it is not very complicated to tinker with a 306. If all in all, quite a bit of money is invested in making it completely top-notch, then you should know that good examples are just €yield 5,000. Who knows, maybe that will make the investment worth it in the end, if you don’t want to travel with it (anymore).
