1997 Peugeot 306 GLX review from UK and Ireland
"A quality motor that will always be better than the 307"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioning has packed up at 63,000 miles. It would appear that it is something electrical as the fuses and "on" switch are OK, but the magnetic grip on the fan belt does not activate when it is switched on.
Fan belt broke 1500 miles after its 60,000 mile service.
General comments?
It is a cheap runner and is still fun to drive.
The driving position is excellent, but the use of plastic trim lets down the dashboard.
