1989 Peugeot 405 Mi16 review from UK and Ireland
"Bargain for the kind of performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Timing belt snapped causing valves to bend, repaired and still runs fine but the exhaust constantly gets a leak from the manifold even though it has been put together several times.
General comments?
Good performance, many people underestimate its ability. Brilliant road holding.
