Hi to all out there.....

Post by Drewnn3 »

Just thought I would say hi.....

I have just bought myself a little gem - 99 V reg 406 estate, metallic blue xu10 engine with AL4 auto box...7 seater!! GTX spec....
This happens to be the second 7 seat 406 that I have owned, my first being a MY2001, Green, 2.0HDi 110 manual called "Jabba the Pug"....(affectionately named by my wonderful other half.)

got to say I have appreciated big pugs since the days of my father owning a Peugeot 505 2.2 GTi family 8 seater...

Though it was about time I got on here, any helpful tips always welcome...... :cheesy:
"That'll do pug.....that'll do...."

406 GTX Auto 2.0 99 "V".....aka Vader..

Welcome indeed!

A pez-engined 7-seater with slushmatic box - you're already a winner here so well done! :D

There's pretty much zero to worry about with petrol Peugeots but it would be well worth getting the slushmatic fluid changed for the sake of good maintenance and long service.
