Hi all, Well i am Lee from good ol Milton Keynes. And i will soon become a Peugeot 406 owner. I have had a number of Pugs from 106 Gti's, 205 GTi's etc. I have always liked the look of the 406, from watching that film 'Taxi' with the unbelievable mods etc. Ok, once i get the keys i will post some pics up.. So watch this space.. 8)

Just an update, i am now a proud owner of a Pug 406 which is a 1.8 16v LS model with A/C, Electric Windows etc. I spent today giving it a really good clean i.e. Claying the paintwork, and then giving it a coat of Meguiars NXT wax/polish i will take some pictures tomorrow (weather permitting :( ) and will get some pics loaded.

DO NOT put a stupid exhaust on it! Please for the love of god don't... Just rack up a year or 2 on yer insurance and get a 2.0T or V6 :) Don't go for "performance" air filters or any of that crud.... The 406 revels in its understatedness, the saloon look right lame with stupid bits hanging off!

Fancy giving mine a once-over? :lol:
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang
