Griffe? Is that like, errr, giraffe?
Looks like an executive with all the trimmings, except a 4 dial dash

"Griffe" means giraffe in french... It's the trim level. Was a "special" trim level in Portugal. Just don´t have electric seats(heated, but not electrical), JBL hi-fi and sat-nav...plod wrote:Glad i'm not the only one thinking thatsteve_earwig wrote:Griffe? Is that like, errr, giraffe?

Re: My 406 HDi Griffe
It seems to mean either a designer label, the carved base of a column, a person of mixed American Indian and Negro blood or a claw - I wonder which Peugeot were going for
The French for giraffe is, err, girafe.

Well of course there's no ground clearance, it's not a bleedin' hovercraft

Re: My 406 HDi Griffe
Just noticed that in the pic. Probably the best way to have it too. Haven't ever seen (standard fit) manual leather in any other 406.atadinho wrote: Just don´t have electric seats(heated, but not electrical), JBL hi-fi and sat-nav...

Re: My 406 HDi Griffe
In here only the 2.2 HDi came with electric seats as standard...

Re: My 406 HDi Griffe
Muito Boa tarde. reparei que a viatura tem Placa portuguesa, por isso deduzo que seja português, gostaria de saber se ainda é proprietário da viatura, e se por acaso não é da zona da Covilhã.
Obrigado
Obrigado

Hadn't noticed before - but it's got an oil pressure warning light, (which ours don't have).
