1995 Peugeot 306 S16 review from Australia and New Zealand
"Hot euro hatch, fun and style"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hard to replace driver's side lock barrel (after a thief attack).
One of the ignition coils went.
One bulb blew... that's it.
General comments?
Very quick, keeps up with Integra Type R's and standard WRX's.
Takes most cars around bends, but lower it 30mm, no more, and fit Pirellies.
Could use a bit of colour inside though, and needs a CD stacker.
Pulls the chicks easy...!
