1993 Peugeot 405 GL review from UK and Ireland
"A superb family estate car cheap and bulletproof"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Suspension drop links failed at 112000 miles I replaced myself.
H T lead failed at 117000 also replaced spark plug at the same time.
Seats have worn in the stitching on both front seats.
Gearbox sometime crunches into second gear.
General comments?
The car drives very well and is spacey and comfortable.
The only really bad thing I can say about the car is that on a raining day the windows mist up something terrible.
Also it is a bit underpowered being only a 1.6.
