1995 Peugeot 306 XSi review from UK and Ireland
"Great value warm hatch"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Alarm doesn't work.
Intermittent faults with keypad immobilizer and central locking.
Oil pressure gauge doesn't work.
Thermostat failed causing car to overheat (easily fixed for £6).
General comments?
Excellent handling, you can throw this car around like a go-kart.
Supportive seats and good driving position.
Fairly good performance, keeps up with many so-called 'hot hatches'.
Well equipped: Electric sunroof and windows, ABS, air con, 15" alloy wheels, fog lights, skirts.
