2000 Peugeot 106 Independence review from UK and Ireland

Glove box broken (still usable, but frustrating)

Rubber around back windows slowly perishing.

Engine component light came on under warranty, was reset, has periodically come on since.

Ditto above with airbag light.

Splutters regularly, strangely only in the summer and not winter.

Overall I have been pleased with this car. I've had it from new and a few things have gone wrong, as above, but it has never broken down and I have not had trouble starting it. If I stick to a steady 60-65 on the motorway it does a surprising amount of miles to a full tank (don't know exactly - I am a girl after all!). In the 5 years I've had it the only 'wear and tear' repairs I've had done is a new back box on the exhaust and front brake discs, which weren't expensive.

I wouldn't necessarily buy a 106 independence again, as they are the cheapest of the cheap, hence I think why the glove box is broken, but I would buy, say, a Zest which has a bit more money spent on it.
