The PEUGEOT 306 is a compact family car, sold in the UK mainly as a hatchback, with estate and convertible versions also available. It sits in the used small-family-car market, where it once competed with models such as the Ford Escort, Volkswagen Golf and Vauxhall Astra. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 1,726 look-ups across 983 distinct VINs, a useful snapshot of ongoing interest in this older Peugeot. The checks show an average latest recorded mileage of 111,000 miles and average annual use of 5,000 miles. Cars had nearly five previous keepers on average, so histories and condition can differ considerably. The average private-sale valuation recorded is £100; treat this as a data snapshot, not a guide to every car, since age, condition and rarity strongly affect prices. Its comfortable ride and engaging handling suit commuters, first-time drivers and budget-minded classic fans, giving the PEUGEOT 306 more character than many everyday rivals today.
