    Peugeot 306 GTI-6 - one of the most beautiful hatchback ever made in my opinion.

      It sounds like Billie Godfrey, female vocalist from JX. She's not actually saying asshole, it's a sample from JX's 1994 comercial dance track 'Son Of A Gun', she was only 15 when it was recorded. Some voice on her for that age.

    Know these very well, having owned 2 306 rallyes and a gti6.
    There was never a 306 gti. just the gti6. and they weren't rare.
    However, they are now and they're totally brilliant.

      @@truff1999 Exactly, I did wonder too. There are no regular 306 GTis. There were only GTI-6s. This is what you get when you have presenters that are reading cue cards and don't really have much knowledge of cars.

    • @jphuuskon
      @jphuuskon Před 3 lety +2

      Peugeot wasn't very consistent with the badging in the 90's and 00's. There definitely was a 306 GTI (sans the 6) in some markets (I saw one for sale in Sweden a few months ago and did check the badge in Service Box but didn't think to check the engine and gearbox types), the 106 GTI was called the S16 in some. They 206 RC was renamed to the GTI 180 for british market. The 106 and 306 XSi's had a number of different configurations depending on year and target market... It's really confusing and if you're looking to buy one, especially if you're looking at one in another country, you really should be plugging the VIN into Service Box and looking up the actual configuration and badging there.

      you're kidding right ? the 180 golf Mk4 is barely faster than the 306 GTI 6, like 0.02 seconds faster from 0-60, but due to its horrible handling and steering, the peugeot would destroy it since it's one of the best handling cars peugeot had ever made.

      @jamessmith84240 Před 8 lety +2

      I read the 306 gti 6 does 0-60 in 8 seconds turns out that was a mistake. Yea I can imagine now it would win. Especially if there were corners involved.
