You know what a ball ache it can be to get tyres fitted when they’re running low on tread, calls to the garage, arranging when they can fit you in, does that work with your calendar, leaving the car there or waiting with it in a depressing room with strangers whilst Jeremy Kyle plays on […]

Now that the 106 GTi is road legal and useable, it’s first jaunt was to the Peugeot Festival at the Prescott Hill Climb in the Cotswolds. We took both the 207 and 106, the 207 was in the show and shine, whilst the 106 was displayed along with other cars Carl Chambers has worked on. […]
When the 106 was in it’s new home over winter I decided it was time to tackle some of the muckier parts. It’s plastic bump strips were in a pretty sorry state…there were a few very minor marks on them, where something had be scraped and the plastic was shiny along with some very small […]
So, after our last little drive down to Norfolk to drop the 106 off to Carl at Pugsport Racing, it sat there for a good while. Which was fine by me as I already have a logistical problem when it comes to parking the cars I own. One evening I checked in on the ever life […]
This video is a tad late… All this happened about six months ago. But, nothing has happened since it moved. So there was no urgency getting this live. It’s not a permanent move…just a temporary one to Peugeot Carl’s aka Carl Chambers place – Pugsport Racing We’ll let you know when there’s an update. […]
Yes, faithful following! It’s been long, far too long since we updated you with news on the trusty little 106 GTi. The last time we updated you was moving the 106 from its warm, sheltered garage to being an outdoor hood rat, and yes, that was the third time i’d ever driven it! So, what […]
So it came time to move the 106 from its long term hibernation, a good chance for a quick catch up along the way.
So it’s been a while since the first ever vlog on the 106. This one is even more cringey than the last – it has more of my face in it. Sorry. Fingers crossed the next one will be from behind the wheel!
I thought it would be worth creating a post detailing the rich history our Peugeot 106 GTi has with it. As soon as i saw the wedge of paperwork that came with the car i knew it was the one to have. Theres something about knowing a cars precise history that gives it more of […]
I realise it has been a full 7 months since the last update, however the car is now well over a hundred miles away from me. It used to sit on my driveway so daily I was tinkering with it, but now that has become a tad harder! Anyway, things have progressed and moved on […]
Before the 106 GTi went off to its winter home we thought it deserved a good going over bodywork wise. It had been sat on the drive 4 months without being washed. In fact it had only been washed once since we have owned it and that was the second day. From a distance it […]
First ever vlog for carwitter here! I thought my musings and chat would be of interest to a select few who are following the project. I genuinely didn’t know if the 106 would make it the 2 and a half hours from Milton Keynes to Lincolnshire, previously i have only ever driven it the once […]
