1996 Peugeot 605 ST Turbo review from Netherlands
"Superb quality car and driving experience"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I just only recently bought the car. The only thing wrong is a "glitch" in the electronics: the diagnostic light goes on intermittently because of a temporary fault in the turbocharger pressure regulation solenoid valve. The part is ordered and will be replaced.
General comments?
I have owned the 605 ST Turbo 2.0 for only 3 months now, but I've been in love with it for the last 5 years. The model is beyond words. I think it's the most beautiful car Peugeot ever made.
It drives smoothly and the performance is very good.
The interior is very complete and comfortable.
I can't comment yet on maintenance costs, but the fuel consumption is reasonable: 10 km/liter.
