As long as i can remember i've allways had a soft spot for the 106, so ofc my first car had to be one of those.
Back in 2007 i bought a '97 Rallye 1.6 in blue, my first car.
The joy was short, after 3-4 months the engine died due to low oil pressure while blasting though a roundabout
So it was sold as i didn't have the working space to change the engine (i earned £300 more than i gave for it )
But the damage was done, for the next 7 years i still had the fun memory of the car nagging me, untill i finaly bought one again.
But it wasn't as well planned as it should have..
My brother and i allways had a deal, one day he would get a 306 Gti i would get a 106 Gti, then travel to the Ring and race the nuts off them.
March 15 2014 my brother died from lounge cancer, 24 years old, which kinda made me question my way of living.
So i bought a Black '99 Gti with 250k km (~155k miles) on the clock in april and traveled to the Nürburgring a week later.
As you all know it takes abit to keep an old lady running, but i think it's all worth it.
This is how it looked after a quick wash.
The previous owner had fitted a TA-Technix coilover, less than 1 year before i bought it and it was completly destroyed.
Both damper was knackered leaving the oil in the struts and one of the springs was collapsed.
The anti-rollbar links where both in desperate need of a replacement because of this.
So a new set and a Bilstein B12 with Eibach spring was fitted.
The front brakes was not working properly, and no wonder
So bought a used set with ATE powerdics' and OMP 971/c pads.
Went to the danish equivalent of MOT and had to remove the "eye lids" from the headlights, then it passed without problems.
He did however say that i should keep and eye on beginning rust, so cleaned it up to see how bad it was
The rear wheel arches and below the ECU had a tiny bit of surface rust, but nothing to talk about really.
I bought a used pair of strut braces and man what a difference
Really changed the steering from direct to go-cart.
Fitted some decals
The one on the boot lid that all got, and a set of these
Winter came and it was time to ditch the OZ rims for some winter rubber, i also removed the lower strut brace again, no point getting any problems with snow and ice.
I bought a 4-2-1 manifold from a guy who got the wrong one for his 8v, brand new for 50% of the price
Also got a full 2" Powerflow decat from a guy on 106owners.
Did some cleaning and painting before fitting it
Bought a set of 743 that got fitted.
I've desperately been trying to get hold of Andy, but it seems imposible.
So with more than 1 months of waiting for a response, this tuesday i'm finaly getting it remapped instead.
Was getting really tired of the crappy rims so gave them a clean and some paint, also toned the rear light
Fitted some 100W xenon bulbs in the lower headlights, that really helps when it's dark.
Currently waiting for some white and blue bulbs for the dash and a new decal for the boot lid badge.
Got a set of 306 Gti brakes to get fitted in the spring
Brand new Brembo discs with greenstuff pads, not sure about those but will give it a try.
My plan is to sand the calipers and paint them black again, then fit some red Peugeot stickers
I've had some missfire problems the last month or so, the tester at work (i work at Peugeot) says the O2 sensor is periodicly failing.
Changed the MAP sensor and temp. sensor but that didn't do anything, the sparkplug was changed last summer and so was the fuel filter.
Bought a new ICV and fitted it earlier this week, it seems to have cured the issues.
I'm planning to change the headlight, i'm really keen on getting the angle eyes in the Black2 edition, but all 106 got those
Instead i'm trying to paint the inside of the lights black, but still not sure.
I got the suspension checked and the toe was changed, tho it seems abit off
Black 106 Gti '99
) so it might tip the 950 mark
