1989 Peugeot 405 DL review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rallying, I hit a rock and put a hole in the oil pan. Rebuilt engine, put in a 5 speed transmission. My fault only.
Temperature sensor went bad, car has 106,500 miles on it though.
General comments?
Great car all around, best seats I've ever had in a car. Great performance, I wish I had an mi16 but this will have to do. Only 1 factory authorized repair shop in town, but I live on the west coast.
