1992 Peugeot 106 XN review from UK and Ireland

Brakes pads, disc's and drums needed replacing when I bought the car, a massive £400!

The steering pulled itself to the left, £20 to get it fixed.

Usual faults like lights etc.

Clip to hold the bonnet catch fell off (due to owners fault)

The gears clunk when going into 2nd, due to worn pins, nothing major.

Sometimes it stalls when going up hill as you go to change down a gear. Due to the engine not being warmed up enough.

The reset button on the mileage counter has broken, so I can't tell how many miles I get to the gallon.

For a 12 year old car its doing very well for its self. The body work and interior are as if it has just come off the production line! My local mechanic said the engine is in great condition for the age and miles its done.

Starts first time, but you must put the choke on on cold morning's otherwise the engine will stall.

Excellent drive, would be much better if it had a 5th gear and better suspension as its prone to bumping about on rough roads.

Effected heavily by high winds.

Cheap insurance and tax make this an excellent town car, not recommended for long motorway driving.

Surprisingly fast for a 1.1, can do 0-60 in my experience about 10 seconds! It also can beat most cars at the lights, nippy in 2nd and 3rd gear, but loses power in 4th unless your going down hill.

Perfect car for a learner or someone who has just passed and want to get their no claims up.

A 5th gear, larger wheels and more stiff suspension would make this car ideal for anyone.
