1993 Peugeot 405 Mi 16 review from UK and Ireland
"Awesome performance a real wolf in sheep's clothing!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The crank snapped at 130000 Miles, rather expensive, but completeley self inflicted. (150 mph Racing a Porsche)
After rebuild there was a ticking noise, Soon rectified with new cylinder head more expense!!
Rear brake calipers did not work when I bought the car. I reconditioned them at no cost.
General comments?
This car is amazing, as quick as an Audi TT, but faster much to the disgust of the driver!
It also handles beautifully.
The car used to tow a race car all over the country. This never seemed to be a problem you wouldn't know there was a trailer on until about 95 mph.
