#1: some of my old pugs... Author: longeatonlad, Location: long eaton, derbyshirePosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 10:53 am ---- ive been pretty much into pugs since i got my first miami blue 205 back in 2003, heres a few of them that ive owned in the time since..
the first one, miami blue 1.6 gti, r.roaded at jamsport @120bhp, not bad for a 1.6 with an exhaust and filter
the next 205 was a silver phase 2, totally standard.
then came the 309 era. first up was this...
this was dimma m.d terry parkenhursts own car when it was built.
genuine 309 dimma with mi16 engine and complete 405 mi16x4 running gear.
the next 309, this red phase 1 track.road legal toy.
then i had a red 405 diesel as a runabout, full mi16 leather and alloys, ran on chip fat, was bullet proof, comfiest car ive ever owned, and it went sideways well too!
#2: Re: some of my old pugs... Author: longeatonlad, Location: long eaton, derbyshirePosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 10:57 am ---- after the 405, came a 406, diablo red 3.0 v6 coupe, the 198bhp version, rolling roaded at 220 bhp, aain with only an exhaust and filter
after that, i went back to old school, and picked up a very tidy 309 gti phase 2 in white, again totally standard apart from goodwood leather and black alloys.
and now a new chapter begins with my gti180.
enjoy.

#4: Re: some of my old pugs... Author: longeatonlad, Location: long eaton, derbyshirePosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 11:01 am ---- the quad exhaust was great at the time, ( i was only 19) seriously loud on a motorway trip though!
im too old for that now, lol.

#6: Re: some of my old pugs... Author: longeatonlad, Location: long eaton, derbyshirePosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 11:04 am ---- without doubt THE best handling peugeot ive ever driven, put it into a corner, lift off for maximum broadside effort, then plant the power and let all 4 wheels correct, immense!

#10: Re: some of my old pugs... Author: Iain, Location: Aberdeen, ScotlandPosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 1:16 pm ---- Why would you ever sell that Dimma 309?!?!
#11: Re: some of my old pugs... Author: longeatonlad, Location: long eaton, derbyshirePosted: Sun Oct 24, 2010 1:20 pm ---- i bit off more than i could chew, lol.
in a nutshell i bought it knowing the engine was on its way, built another engine up and various headaches started from there on, lack of time funds and enthusiasm at the time made my mind up and i sold it.
if i had the money i'd buy it back tomorrow and do her proud!
