1999 Peugeot 406 SVDTB review from Norway
"Comfort, with superb engine!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Standard problem with the warning light for the side-airbag. Fixed by dealer.
One stabrod broke under hard driving.
No problems actually!
General comments?
Superb car, beautiful engine. I've chipped it. Now it has 143 bhp and a real powerful tourqe at wopping 323 Nm.
It's superfast at acceleration in third at 40 km/h. Just superfast car (ex. Porsche, Lotus, WRX STI) beats it. It only cost 650 £!!!
I'm going to buy the new 407 Estate. What a beauty!
