1995 Peugeot 306 Xsi review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Lambda valve (controls fuel) has had to be replaced twice.
Sunroof leaks in heavy rain.
Interior light switch does not work.
Immobiliser keypad has a mind of its own, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
The finished product isn't perfect i.e. runs in paintwork, a few little rattles.
Peugeot dealers in my experience are terrible, the only reason I used them was to keep the warranty valid, as soon as the warranty ran out I used smaller garages.
General comments?
A brilliant car which I don't regret buying as it looks good and the drive is excellent. However if you are after a sports hatch it needs a few more bhp and better brakes - go for the Gti if you really want a 306.
