The 90bhp HDi offers horrible acceleration. On the Top Gear site where you can describe a car in 5 words or less, someone's comment was More Power In A Fart. Do you really want to drive a 1.5-ton car with 90bhp? I did in my first car, a Xantia, and although the handling was nice the car was too damn slow! It turns every busy roundabout into a life-or-death situation. And why would you want to spend ?600 giving it the same performance as a standard 2.2?

The 110bhp is much better and easier to get hold of, but for my money the 136bhp HDi is the dog's danglies; it can match a 2.0 turbo and returns twice the mpg (supposedly). What better combination of power and cost-efficiency can you think of, except for a Seat Leon Cupra TDi.

I agree on the seats, and I've never been keen on 406's in black, white or matt red.

Have you been to see that 406 yet supa? I saw it on eBay for £4495.... not on there any more it seems though.

That's a bugger with the one in Bath. Not having the best of luck lately. Never mind, as Tony Blair's favourite song goes, Things can only get better...

(Paying £80 on a car that you don't want must've stung a bit too)

I'm sure you can scrounge that bit extra if you need to. ;)

My offer is still on, 2001 Y 406 GTX 2.0HDi 110bhp 120k for £4k if you want it?

Supa, the next time I buy a car YOU are definately coming with me

You must have more bargaining power than Tesco's vs Dairy Farmer.

I, on the other hand am typically English when buying and tend to 'agree' on a nice little price that everyone is happy with, seller happy, me happy, everything is nice........until I find out it was a shitter

and should have noticed this, and that, and this.......

And yes, I got the £60, but you really don't want to know how

I'm sure would have made more than £60 standing on street corners.
