1995 Peugeot 306 XSi review from UK and Ireland
"Value for money and lots of fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Wheel bearing is on it's way out.
Few knocks and bangs from the lowered suspension.
General comments?
Quicker than I thought it would be, and now it's lowered and has decent tyres, is seriously good fun to drive.
Lacks that certain punch of a 16 valve though.
Looks good and puts up one of the best fights of any hot-hatch that I've owned.
Little bit thirsty for what it is, but the noise from the full stainless mongoose exhaust makes up for it.
