Pug 106 for sale
Hi,
Am hoping someone will be interested in this, my 106 mardi gras.
It has just failed its mot on:
nearside headlamp too high and to the right
near and off side rear front suspension bushes
nearside outer CV joint gaitor split
nearside rear tyre has a bulge.
rear exhaust blowing
So to pass it will need a new tyre, suspension bushes and a CV joint gaitor the exhaust is covered by a kwikfit garantee.
However the nearside CV joint is knocking quite badly and will need replacing.
The advisories are slight chassis corrosion and offside CV gaitor deteriorated and the front brakes on both sides judder slightly.
Slight Oil leak from engine
Other than that its fine.
I want to get rid of the car as we will be getting a van at work that i can drive and have spent quite alot on it already, more than what it is
worth.
so the good bits,
New rear brake shoes on both sides and new brake cylinder on the drivers side.
Head Gasket has been done about 3000 miles ago.
New hoses in cooling system, new fan switch.
New rear exhaust
Paint work is not good, is a metallic laquer and it is peeling. the paint itself is fine and there are no major dents or scratches.
Oh one wheel trim is missing and the speedo doesn't work but have wired in an road angel to tell you the speed plus it has a speed camera
database and laser detection.
Have had this car since oct and it has never failed to start and is really nippy and fun to drive plus it is so simple. Would be ideal for a first car
or one of those bangor rallies.
If no one is interested i will be weighing it in.
Ps it is a 1.1 litre SPI 4 speed model
Am looking for about £100 cheers
Edited to add that i can also provide a haynes book of lies and a new cambelt with the car

well i suspect that is what i will end up doing. I was just posting to see if anyone wanted it. I know a 106 was sold on here recently for a banger
rally to italy. It was better than mine i think tho.

if anyone does want to sort it here's my top tips for 106 + Saxo's:
[:insert standard disclamer here: - these are just my opinions/ tips/..............no liability etc ]
you get exchange recon driveshafts for ~£40 each
the front suspensions rear bushes are a total PITA to change, and cheap ones last no time at all so:
- take the wole arm off to change them (do the ball joints at the same time)
-get real Pug/Citroen bushes
-fit them to the arms at the angle they will sit at with weight on the wheels (this will make them a little harder to refit the arms)
make sure you get new/spare dust caps for the rear hubs before you try to take them off (half the time you destroy them if your not really careful)
if you've got the same rear brakes as mine (3 stud wheels, bendix type with the little ratcket adjusters) then the adjustment can slip
-so strip them right down
-clean all the leavers individualy (don't forget how to put them back to gether )
-then re-assemble with new shoes, making sure the levers pivots are free enough to move but allow a little resistance
-use just enough hi temp. expander grease on the pivots/ levers (too much just attracts the dust)
-put some thread lock on the ratchet teeth
if you have the front brakes that use pins to hold the pads in place, then these are a total PITA to knock the old pins out so what I do is:
-use a lever {screwdriver} between the pad and caliper to push the piston back (remember the fluid level ! )
-cut the wire anti-rattle spring in the middle and pull out the 2 bits (there is normally a new one in the fitting kit)
-chop the pins in 2 places each with bolt cutters as near to the right and left of each pin as you can get (new pins in the fitting kit)
-you should then be able to pull out the middle bit of the pins (probably with 1 or both pads attached)
-it should now be easy to just tap out the 4 leftover bits of pin (you need a very small puntch for one end - which it how they are ment to come
out)

Trust me, it'll be the first time that its ever be accused of that
did you manage to get the brakes sorted / was it just the pad wear indicators ?
my brothers trying to sort his saxo at the moment (same brakes/ engine/ wheels......) he's spent at least 4 hours swearing at it and tring to
get the adjustment right

I lost a weekend of my life sorting the back brakes, they work fine, along with the handbrake. Will just be the front brakes that need sorting and
they work ok, is just when you brake from 70 to 50 in a rush they judder a lot.

thats what i would imagine it to be so new disks and pads should sort it.
Brand New driveshafts can be had for £56, as i was looking to replace the driveshaft myself.
