1995 Peugeot 306 XR review from UK and Ireland
"An absolutely horrid car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Everything possible went wrong with this car:
The sunroof leaked and no-one could fix this.
All the exterior light bulbs fitted too loosely so constantly went out on the motorway, resulting in much thumping of the lights on the hard shoulder.
Only one brake channel worked - which meant the car wouldn't brake in a straight line and was generally extremely dangerous.
Radio fuse blew a couple of times.
Driver's window winder clicked and screeched.
Constantly over-heated, without apparent reason.
The doors catches didn't work, resulting in scratched shoulders.
It was riduculously heavy on petrol no matter how it was driven.
General comments?
'part from all this is was quite nippy.
