1996 Peugeot 306 D Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"A superb car with beautiful styling and great performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
There are a few creaks from the dashboard at low speeds.
The front seats are starting to wear.
General comments?
The car is great fun to drive, it handles brilliantly.
The fuel return is superb, even when driven hard.
This is a car that will become a classic due to its gorgeous looks and ageless styling.
My previous car was an Orion Ghia with EFi, compare the two cars on every pointer and the D turbo wins every time.
The D turbo has to be the best car in its class, its performance, reliability and its gorgeous looks make it stand out from the rest by a very long way.
