| 306 is many things: family holdall; sporty hatchback; stylish cabriolet; and load-lugging estate. Easy to own, good to drive and fairly economical to run, it represents sound value now. |

| Despite being an older design, 306 has big attractions for the value-conscious buyer. The line-up offers as much choice as Escort or Astra (1991-98); 306's excellent ride quality helps it rise above these rivals. And handling is way ahead of mid-Nineties family car standards - it's responsive and confidence-inspiring. Engines start with 1.4 and 1.9D units, but it's the 1.6, 1.9 D Turbo, 2.0 HDi and GTi-style 2.0 XSi that make the best of 306's abilities. There are true 'hot hatch' choices, too: the 150+ bhp S16 and GTi-6. Occupant comfort is above-average, boosted by the superior ride. Adults have reasonable rear legroom and seats are comfortable, though taller drivers may complain of tight headroom on cars with a factory-fitted sunroof. Interior trim looks good on newer cars but often gets rattly and tatty as the years mount up. Recommended as a stylish yet sensible value choice. |
