There are a few trim bits I need to tidy her up with and and some upgrades to do - so no doubt will be asking some questions in the right places soon!

Hi everyone
Hi all, I'm a Kiwi living in North Wales. Had Peuegots (by the dozen in NZ) before but this is my first 406. I have an S Estate 110hp Hdi manual. Done a few miles but from experience with all my taxi driver customers (Work at Euro Car Parts...) the 406 diesels seem unstoppable!

Re: Hi everyone
Thanks for the welcome guys :-) Now, if someone could point me in the direction of a set of mud flaps, a tow bar and the trim for the RH front of the bumper!
Who is good for a re-map up this way too? Needs more go!
This is what the 406 is replacing, was devastated when i had to sell her to come to the UK...

Re: Hi everyone
Something in the UK must have been REALLY attractive to you to have to leave that lovely 405 behind in your homeland
