1996 Peugeot 306 D Turbo review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fog lights don't always work. Rear off side wheel arch trim became distorted and rubbed on the wheel during cornering, making an awful noise. Bad wind noise from near side mirror. Usual Peugeot creaks and rattles. Nothing else (yet!)
General comments?
This is a gorgeous looking car. Performs well but takes a bit of technique to get the most from it due to the turbo lag and short power range. Handles better than you first think, it takes a little faith but is rewarded! Engine clatter very loud on cold start. Peugeot dealer is totally useless and dishonest though, shame. Still a great car.
