1998 Peugeot 106 GTi review from UK and Ireland
"Amazingly quick, but fragile"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The crank pulley decided to detach itself from the crank, Destroying the head and bending most of the valves in the process.
Alarm sounds every 10 minutes.
General comments?
Great fun car, Goes like the wind and sticks to the road like no other car I have driven.
Despite having major problems with the engine within only 2 weeks of buying the car, I would still rate this car the best I have ever owned.
0-60 in 7.5 seconds and a top speed of 135ish seems much faster in this car.
