Just got my first, but had loads of old skool 309's and 405's. Both my brother and my dad have had a 406 each too.

I have owned lots of peugeots over years. I have had two 406's. A 406 coupe 3.0 V6 Se. And a 406 110 hdi remapped uprated fly and a few more slight mods producing around 150bhp now. Its the best pug I have had. Also the longest I have owned over 6yrs :shock: :shock:

I'm on my first - thought about it last time, decided 406 too big, bought Xsara HDi estate :oops:
I have now seen the error of ways and joined the path of righteousness 8)
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)

1997 2.0 Exec Turbo Estate (2006-2008)
1998 3.0 V6 Exec Saloon (2008-present)

Also bought my dad a 1997 tubby, but it's turbo's buggered and i've not had the opportunity to have a look at it

Next car's going to be a D8 V6, either Exec estate or SE coupe, but when I move into a house with a garage I'm going to start building an AC Cobra replica 8)

It varies :lol:

roughly, on bp ultimate (best fuel, returns more economy than the price difference):

45mpg slipstreaming trucks
39mpg at 70mph on cruise control
22mpg urban
8mpg at 150mph :shock:
4mpg having fun :twisted:
