Did they make a sports edition 406? I saw a 406 (p1 I think) in Morrison's car park the other day which had different bumpers to the usual ones. They were slightly deeper and the rear had a slot with black plastic mesh like a 106 gti rear bumper. It didn't look modified at all. ________________________________________ |

This was a 4door saloon. It looked very good actually. Wondered if it was a le mans edition like the 405. There was a settant anni special edition and the silver and black special editions for the coupe. ________________________________________ |

The missus has managed to destroy the engine in the Jeep. (I blame her, but I think my hate for that car came through) Point being, she's now keen on a 406 coupe V6. Is there any know big issues with this model? Any specific model worth looking out for? She's going to try her luck against me off the lights one day, I hope my 6 performs! ________________________________________ Love thy 6 |

Go for a d9 v6 manual. Or maybe rikkys in the for sale section. Your 6 should lose, standard on standard.The coupe forum is very good and friendly ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

Thanks mate, Yeah no doubt I'll be getting in the forum.Depends if ill lose, 1 the missus is driving and 2, She'll probably want an auto... Anyhow, you reckon the D9 is the better of them? I'm in Australia, so shipping Rikky's might no be the best idea  ________________________________________ Love thy 6 |

I love the 406 coupe but one thing that p**ses me off about it is the steering wheel. Not sure why it annoys me so much but I think it would look much better with a 3-spoke wheel, something like that in the 6.Presumably not a straight swap though? ________________________________________  You feed beefburgers to swans.

Straight swap I'd imagine, though a D9 would probably throw a hissy fit, every pug I've messed with so far have been the same steering wheel spline.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
