Summary
What does this car say about you?
You're in the wrong place mate!! I still think the 406 is one of the most boring (looks wise) of the Peugoet range. Probably best suited to someone considerably older than 25.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Its nice!!! Thats about as enthusiastic a response I've had from anyone. I guess they just don't jump up and bite you in the nuts!!!
Would you buy this car again and why?
No. I accept one as a gift but wouldn't spend money on one again. Too boring to look at.
What are you likely to buy next?
I like the range of MG. Probably the ZT.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Comfortable and sure footed even when negotiating corners. Performance is acceptable for the level of economy.
What's it like to park?
Easy enough for a six foot athletic male. There are however no major blind spots and there is ample view through the rear window.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Petrol guage has decided to do its own thing a couple of times and the same with the stereo and information screen. Nothing major though.
What's most practical about your car?
MPG. I travel 20 miles to and from work every day of the week and £15 will always suffice.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Where do i start? Cruise control/electric seats/anti glare rear view mirror/auto head lights/auto windscreen wipers........ I could go on all day.
