1996 Peugeot 306 S16 review from UK and Ireland
"Designed with love, built without care"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Trouble starting - dealer blamed the battery, had to swap twice.
Speed sensor gave up after 30,000 miles.
Buzzing front speaker.
General comments?
Sensory overload. Beautifully balanced, fantastic feedback from the suspension and steering.
Gear-change not great - haven't driven but assume it's improved in the GTI-6. Really screams above 5000 revs.
