1998 Peugeot 306 1.8 XS (Phase 2) review from UK and Ireland
"Sporty, cheap to insure, good fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
No major problems yet (fingers crossed)
Drivers electric window is a bit jerky.
General comments?
The car is very cheap to insure (only group 5 or 6), so very good for young drivers.
Looks sporty (a lot more so than the standard/lower range 306's).
VERY good handling and easy to drive.
Fairly good stereo (6 CD Changer) and speakers.
People say the interior is outdated, but I think it looks fine. Although I've seen many other 306's with horrible patterns, however mine is not too bad.
The seats are very sporty and comfortable.
The car is very quick seeing as its in such a low insurance group (around 112bhp).
