1996 Peugeot 306 XS review from Netherlands
"A true driver's car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Direction indicator failed (repaired under warranty).
Cooling system leaked (repaired under warranty).
Exhaust pipe broke.
General comments?
This car is a fast little devil!
Noisy engine.
"Sweats" oil like all French cars seem to do.
Overall less comfort, more sporty than the Citroen ZX/Xsara.
Replaced by the 307 which handles much less.
Second hand is expensive though.
