1997 Peugeot 306 GTi-6 review from UK and Ireland
"A high performance lemon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Airbag light fault.
Oxygen sensor fault.
Alternator failed (breakdown).
Gearbox linkage broke (breakdown).
Very easily scratched/chipped paintwork.
Alloys badly scraped due to design wider than tyres.
Groaning clutch cable.
General comments?
Great car to drive with lots of low down torque and good handling but everything that could go wrong seems to have gone wrong. After two breakdowns in two months I am now going to have to sacrifice driving pleasure for a bit more reliability by trading in for something a bit more boring.
