1996 Peugeot 306 XRDT review from UK and Ireland
"A good little street racer"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air bag warning light flashing at 46,500 miles. Dealers sorted the problem out under warranty.
Air bag warning light flashing, again, a day later, but the problem was sorted for good.
Dashboard rattles a little occasionally.
Excessive wind noise at 60+MPH.
General comments?
Generally I am pleased with the car.
Handling is very good.
The performance is very quick for a diesel.
Quite a lot of engine mods for this car, if you're into that sort of thing.
Looks damned sexy too!
