Peugeot 306 Hatchback 1.9 D Turbo 3d (1998/R) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Some really poor cars about, take your time to look for a good condition model if buying used. Dealers are a rip-off so best is private if you have the knowledge and confidence.
Costs
Good on fuel. Around 450 miles to a tank on average driving conditions. Fares better with short journeys as opposed to lots of motorway driving (probably due to turbo).

On the road
Driving
Handles well.
Performance
Good acceleration in lower gears. Not brilliant top end.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems engine wise, but have suffered from sunroof water leaks. No other problems yet. None that you'd not experience with any car.
Image
Sporty looking with alloy wheels.
Comfort
Recaro seats are comfortable.

Security and Service
Security
Mine is fitted with a Sigma alarm rather than standard alarm. Worth getting locking wheel nuts for your alloys too as they are popular with thieves in the wrong areas.
