1998 Peugeot 306 L review from UK and Ireland
"Good looking, cheap to run, good first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Cylinder head cracked. This happened six months after I bought it; I got lucky and got one for £40.
Exhaust split between mid box and cat converter. This cost £50 to fix, just got it welded.
General comments?
Very cheap to run and very economic.
Very good looking for its year.
Nice interior, I put on some black leather seat covers and sprayed the center console gloss white, (the area around the radio and heater controls etc)
Mines is a 1.9D (only 70bhp), so it's quite sluggish, but has good handling.
