1994 Peugeot 306 XR review from Norway
"A lot of car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New exhaust fell off, had to buy another. The exhaust has only 2 supports under the car.
New gasket on top of motor (not head gasket).
Instrument lamps replaced.
New lambda sonde.
Side mirrors adjustment doesn't work.
Gear box makes whining sounds while driving and feels clunky when shifting to second gear.
General comments?
It is good to drive, but hasn't the road "presence" of a 505.
A bit small for my needs.
