Peugeot 306 Gti-6 review - verdict
Peugeot 306 2.0 GTi- 6 Road Test
Test Date 04 December 1996
Price When New £17,488
Verdict
Peugeot has always been boss of hot hatch handling, knowing just what the keen driver wants and providing it. Rivals have raised their game, though, and the latest GTi on the scene – Nissan’s Almera GTi – is every bit as competent as the Peugeot. Fortunately for the French company, the Nissan looks uninspiring. The 306 is likely to grow old with grace, more timeless than extroverts such as Fiat’s Brava. As we said at the earlier, it’s fanciful and unrealistic to keep looking for the 205 GTi’s successor, but the 306 GTi-6 is as near as anyone has got so far.
