It´s the same message as in my other strand. It´s a collection of "Car" magazine from 2003 to 2014 or so.
Free to anyone who wants a great collection of first rate motoring hackery.

The wheelcovers are 14" ones for a Peugeot 406 or 306. I have bought 15" ones.
Does anyone want them?
The 406 I bought is running fine. It had new brake pads and an adjustment of an engine mount thingy. Apart from that the car is super. I have discovered the front centre armrests are a bit too high set and almost no use. And it has no cruise control. I didn´t expect that.
 
Does anyone read this?

Thanks very much. Do you need a boot liner? Or floor mats?

Does anyone have wheel covers for a 2002 Peugeot 406 1.8 litre for sale? If you´re in Jutland that would be handy.

This week I have looked at a 406 station car with a 1.8 litre engine and also a 2.2 litre 607 from 2005.

The 406 estate is actually quite nice but definitely not the same as the saloon. Some of the difference is the engine. I tried the one with the silver engine cover, a different 1.8 from the car I had before. The gear shift is better and the steering even lighter. The ride feels more soft and the car rolls a bit on corners but it´s a smooth and comfortable car. The biggest drawback is the rear seating which lacks a rear centre arm-rest. The car I checked had some particular issues which meant I rejected it but it was entirely in line with the price.
The 607. Well. I am sure those of you who have them like them. But it does nothing the 406 can´t do other than the fact the cabin is a bit wider. I tried a 2.2 litre automatic. It´s smooth and fast enough and very quiet. But Peugeot must have had Germans in mind because the ride is not as smooth as a 406 and the steering is plain heavy and not very revealing. There´s lots to like about the car if you want a handsome car with lots of features. And the boot is huge. But I have learned that little is added to motoring life with girth and accessories. If the 607 at least rode as well as the 406 I´d be happy with it. But it doesn´t. Surprising. Whatever Peugeot learned with the 604, 505 and 405 and 406 was forgotten in the 607.

I can recommend Ring Biler in Naestved where I tested the cars. They have some nice Peugeots on sale and the service is super friendly. They were very helpful indeed.

Well, the dealer who bought my old 406 rang up with one for sale. Alas, I was on vacation and could do nothing about it.
I read in the UK Guardian that the EU is considering banning the export of old cars.

If anyone has a 406 saloon (not diesel) please let me know.

Regards,

Richard

Hi:

Rust has taken my 2001 Peugeot 406 1.8 sedan. Has anyone got a similar 4 door for sale? I´d prefer the mid-series with the revised grille and black instrument panel. At a push I´ll consider a station car but can´t manage the two-door, nice as it is.
I am based in Aarhus.  You can contact me at 91 33 30 28.

Regards,

Richard
