1997 Peugeot 406 ST review from Australia and New Zealand
"Well built, quiet, comfortable mile muncher"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air con needed a re-gas at 40,000km, probably due to lack of use and low miles.
Nothing otherwise up to 40,000km.
General comments?
Passenger airbag trim coming away from the dash. Hate to leave it in the Australian sun.
Slow acceleration, good highway speed though.
Runs only on Premium fuel 98+. Not always available in the Australian country.
Great handling and plush ride.
