1998 Peugeot 306 Vivant review from UK and Ireland
"I love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Since owning this car I have only had one fault, The radiator burst, Perhaps through fault of maybe through puncture.
General comments?
I am a mechanic so I didn't rate dealer service, (have never used them) except for purchase of parts. The were most helpful. All round this is the nippiest diesel I have ever driven. I find the torque excellent and the handling of curvy roads quite responsive. I live near a lot of hills so the power in the engine is very helpful on them.
