Some 306's have a weird stalling problem. The engine cuts out on a trailing throttle, usually coming up to roundabouts and junctions. More about it on the gti-6 owners club forum but the citroen should have different wiring so may not suffer.

Caused by a variety of things though, including lamda sensors and idler valves, so I thing it's engine specific. There was a thread about it here a month or so ago.
