1999 Peugeot 406 LX review from UK and Ireland
"The Drive of My Life"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
CD player ejection button stopped working at 67,000 miles.
Air conditioning failed at 75,000 miles.
Tyres wore very quickly. So far they have had to be replaced five times in less than two years.
General comments?
Aside one or two electrical faults, the 406 has so far been a very reliable, economical, solid and nice car to drive. The 406 really is the drive of my life. Its tyres could also last a bit longer too!
I also appreciate the car's space and comfort.
With such a high mileage, I'm doubtful as to whether it can keep up its reliability so I'll probably trade it in some time this year.
