Clean engine bay!

[mjb]

I, uh, appear to have taken a wire brush to my engine bay after liking the cleanliness offered by attacking the plastics with degreaser following the nasty incident with transmission oil....

Where's the after pic?

Shiny!

I'm jealous, I want a V6

Ecosse Peugeot offers a V6 upgrade (i.e. replacement of existing engine for a Peugeot 3.0 V6) but it's £5500 and I think that's a little too much for my budget (i.e. f***-all).

yeah, but do you really want ecosse touching your car?

try kr tuning in glasgow for that sort of thing, much better and probably cheaper.

I remember that view when i popped the bonnet

Ok, it wasn't that clean tho

[mjb]

Not bad for a 170,000 mile car eh?

[Doggy]

I've often wondered if one of those strut top braces would be any help to us 'mainstream' 406ers

Admireable work m - try a touch of Autoglym Bumper Care on the black plastic bits to really finish it off

A strut brace up front on the estate might make it go all bendy/twisty at the back? then you'd need one bridging the boot space and the Dogs won't like that at all

Nice job Matt!

Doubtful. The saloon+estate are set up for comfort whereas the coupe's evidently designed for handling (my god it handles better, but at a price...) The strut brace would probably make virtually no difference without a suspension overhaul first
