1998 Peugeot 106 GTi review from UK and Ireland
"Untouchable performance for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Firstly I had problems starting the car, I bought and fitted a new transponder aerial that fixed the problem.
Then my catalytic converter went after an MOT.
Finally my head gasket went.
I also had problems with a lot of rattling inside the car.
General comments?
Great performance, fantastic in fact, nothing comes close for the price range.
In the dry she handles brilliantly, however in the wet it can be a problem and my relationship with the car ended recently when I lost the back end on black ice and wrote her off.
Great little car, shame the way things ended.
