Don't suppose anyone has a clutch cable and front axle assembly, passenger side, for the above car sitting in their shed somewhere! Or better still a whole car sitting in their paddock! It is the 1400 model which I believe can be different to the 1600. Any genius ideas on where I could source these parts from! The wreckers are unable to help.

Have you contacted a seller on here called sailor000!(or similar).He seems to supply lots of pug bits.

Awesome thank you. I have been scratching my head on how I can find bits and thought of the message board. I normally post in pets and animals and thought if you guys were nearly as helpful as they are I may just have some luck. I'll see if I can find that trader.

Thanks saxman99. I'll look them up today. Thank you for your help, it's really appreciated. I thought I could try Ebay UK as a last resort but that could get a bit pricey getting them sent I expect. It was a cheap car so I don't want to be spending lots. It is very, very reliable though. Never missed a beat apart from things wearing out.

You're welcome.
I would recommend having a look in the uk anyway, you may be ok with freight costs, sometimes it's surprising.
The 306 was indeed one of the best hatches ever made and it still out-handles most of the new ones.

Thank you. I have spoken to Euroline and I need to get the part numbers for them. He has told me where to look so I'll do that and see what he can come up with. I will also try Jim once I have the numbers cos I'm thinking he'll need them as well. I really like the little car. She is very unique. Not such a good quality when you are trying to find parts though!

Thank you. I was told that as an option. I thought it might be a cheaper option to find a 2nd hand one instead. The car was only an $800 car so I need to be a bit realistic on how much I spend. She is very cool though. I'm very pleased this board is just as nice and as helpful as pets and animals :)

I need to get the part numbers first which will involve taking out the front axle assembly I expect. I have the clutch cable out but not the axle assembly. Once I get those I'll call them.
