1994 Peugeot 405 GTX Automatic Estate review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Tailgate once mysteriously opened by itself while driving through town, but otherwise no faults in the 6 months it was owned from new.
General comments?
Pinnacle of the species. Had everything you could want - electric everything, air con, automatic, alloys, chrome roof rails, metallic paint, airbag, excellent stereo...went like a rocket, well-allied to auto 'box.
Very roomy for the size. Quality build for a Pug. Remote locking has poor range. It's very easy to dent the rear quarter panel getting the jack out. Redundancy made me give it up, but 3 years later it came back in the shape of a GRDT. Happy days are here again
