Greetings!

Post by Wiggy »

Hello to all!

I've been pointed this way by a mate of mine at work who suggests it may be a good place to find some info on various elements of my 406, as it seems to be a bit of a pain in the ringer and breaking down more and more often nowadays :lol:

I own a silver 110 HDI GLX, 2000 model (X-reg). I'm sure I'll post various things about stuff and see if anyone can help :cheesy:

Thanks guys

Wiggy

That's OK :)

Incidentally, what would I need to do to my LX to get it to GLX standard?

Is it a lot of work?

My mods so far are: 15in alloys (from a 307), official Pug spoiler (hopefully get that fitted this weekend), Lockwood aluminium door sill guards (again, hopefully will do those this weekend), leather gearstick gaiter, Sony MEX-BT3600U stereo
2002 (D9) Peugeot 406 Coupe SE, 2.2 litre Petrol. Scarlet Red/Rouge Ecarlate/Rosso Scarlatto. Black Leather interior. SOLD :(
