2002 Peugeot 306 Convertible review from UK and Ireland
"I think I received whats known as a Friday afternoon car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The rear window trim fell off when winding down window.
Under dash trim fell on your feet.
Both doors came loose on their hinges.
Seats wore badly and uncomfortable spot developed in center of the back.
Inside door handle casing pulled off.
The boot would not close without slamming hard.
Remote car stereo control did not work.
General comments?
I decided upon the 306 convertible as I loved its look and flowing lines. It looks great with the roof up and down and space inside (for a convertible) was ample.
The suspension and handling was very good and the car always felt solid on the road.
My main cause for disappointment was the poor trim level and niggly problems with a car that was brand new.
