The unbridled imagination of our neighbors across the Channel is served by legislation that is much more permissive than here, which from time to time gives rise to singular achievements. Thus, the man named Carl Chambers, after getting his hands on an damaged Renault Clio V6, decided to graft the hull and front chassis of a Peugeot 306 onto it. This mechanic, a fan of the lion brand, dresses it all up with a Maxi-style body kit.
The same as that of the Peugeots entered in rallies in the kit-car category at the end of the 1990s, a car which proved unbeatable when François Delecour or Gilles Panizzi were at the wheel. The livery of this Peugeot 306 V6 Maxi takes up the spirit of the era, with a colored cut-out from a torn sheet of paper and features the appropriate sponsors.
A central PRV V6 engine
And in the center of the vehicle, there is no question that the diamond V6 engine borrowed from the Avantime remains in place, for the coherence of the subject, it is a Peugeot block of the same architecture with a volume of 3 liters which enters the scene, whose power n is not communicated.
You suspect that the transformation, which required no less than ten years of work – the man of the art, who is also a pilot, carrying out the work in his free time – was not an easy task. However, everything works, and even quite well according to the passengers who were able to test the homemade car on the small roads of the English countryside. A little vanity, the number 306 even appears on the registration.
