Roland Garros 406?

[Sonia406]

Have you ever seen a Roland Garros 406?

According to SB you can get the decals for the 406.... surely this means they made a RG 406? I've never seen one.. How many did they make?


I am sure a lot of us know what most of these are, but what are the additional ones... I've not seen these, so again, must be on rare as f*ck 406s.


Clearly, I am dangerous with SB.........

A quick google image search shows the roland garros models to be green with cream leather with a bit of green in the middle of the cream leather. Here is what wikipedia says

The French car manufacturer Peugeot commissioned a 'Roland Garros' limited edition version of its 205 model in celebration of the tennis tournament that bears his name. The model included special paint and leather interior. Due to the success of this special edition, Peugeot later created Roland Garros editions of its 106, 206, 207, 306 and 806 models.

I know that because, we had a 806 Roland Garros.
My question is this, wikipedia do not mention a RG 406, yet SB suggests there was one.......?

I tell you what's round the corner from me right now - an S-plate 406 SLX it's a proper Pug badge too but I aint never seen one before.

Pretty sure they did an SX or an LXS (last of the D8 LX with alloys & front fogs), but never seen an SLX.

That's exactly what I thought......

Never heard of an SLX either... maybe he's done my trick and added the S badge himself? That said, the one I looked at last week was S... so maybe this guy with an SLX had a bog standard LX (like me) and has upgraded the interior and trim and added the S to show that?

Sod the RG, how about a lovely pair of these seats?

One of the guys on the french 406 site had one - IIRC it was green metallic, (like mine), with tan leather. 2.2 petrol, I think.

Looked very smart.

By that logic I'm going for XLS.

X-plicit legover show.

Dogging anyone?

Oops, you might be right it could be an LX-S, I'll try and get a shifty picture of it.........
