Description of the Real Model
The Peugeot 306 Maxi represents the culmination of Peugeot Sport's commitment to national and regional French rallies. Developed following the 205 and 309 GTI, this competition version of the popular 306 was designed to comply with the regulations of French rally championships, offering an ideal balance of performance and accessibility.
Under its hood, this rally machine hides a naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine developing about 280 horsepower, combined with a sequential gearbox and a reinforced chassis. The lightweight body, equipped with an imposing rear wing, reflects its purely competitive vocation while maintaining the recognizable lines of the production 306.
This 2007 version perfectly illustrates the longevity of this competition platform that dominated regional French rallies for many years, allowing crews like Mauffrey-Grandemange to shine on the Lorraine roads.
Peugeot's Legacy in Competition
In the mid-2000s, Peugeot was still nurturing its rich tradition in motorsport, even as the lion brand had left the World Rally Championship after its resounding successes with the 205 T16 and 206 WRC. The 306 Maxi continued this legacy, allowing the brand to maintain its presence in national rallies.
This period marked a turning point for Peugeot, which was preparing for its return to international competition while supporting private drivers in hexagonal events. The Peugeot collection from Bernard Miniatures reflects this rich sporting history, from early victories to recent exploits.

Eric Mauffrey, an experienced rally driver from Eastern France, chose this 306 Maxi for its legendary reliability and ease of driving on the winding roads of Lorraine.

This 2007 edition of the rally of Lorraine took place under particularly challenging conditions, testing both men and machines. The pristine white livery of this 306 Maxi contrasted beautifully with the autumnal landscapes of the region, creating stunning images that remain etched in the minds of spectators.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?

What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
