the search for a car

pondweed · 25th September 2007, 11:34

finally found a Tourer steed! 2 owners, full history, new diesel intank fuel pump, handbrake cables, aircon condensor, new Dunlops all round and on 129k. Handling/comfort balance is absolutely out of this world and clutch lightest I've felt.
£1250.
He had a lot of calls!
Its a peugeot 406HDi 90.....

And Ron can convert my Synergy cable ends temporarily to suit the HDi for £15. Marvellous. Completely takes the pressure off - and increasing the enjoyment of - buying another 75 now...

Jon my mate Bob has a 406 HDI Estate currently with 247,000 on the clock so that is just a youngster

:SHOCKED: is there much bodywork left? I'd be very interested to know how long his first clutch lasted....

Another advantage of also running a 407 estate - Tourer roof bars fit

Not sure about the clutch he does use it regularly to Tow a hefty Caravan as well though

Car looks spotless the only thing I know he has changed apart from sundries is an in tank diesel pump sounds familiar.............
