1999 Peugeot 106 Zest 3 review from UK and Ireland
"An honest little trooper!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car was quite rusty underneath when I purchased it, so I had to replace the whole exhaust at 70,000 miles.
The back brakes leaked and I had to replace them at 75,000 miles.
I had a major problem with the leaky sunroof. I had to re-seal it, but the damage had been done! Seals inside were eroded and screws were rusty. Every now and then I get a leak in the roof which is an ongoing problem until I get it fixed properly.
Drive shafts are on their way out (but I guess that is to be expected due to the age and mileage of car)
General comments?
Despite this, the car is reliable and handles nicely.
I do a lot of miles in this car and it's a real work horse!
The driving position is a little uncomfortable, but its only a small car anyway.
The car is getting older now so I expect things to go wrong with it.
It is very much - what you see is what you get! But I'm happy with it.
