Hello from Sweden

Post by dadooo »

Hey all of you pugsters! just bought my 1st Peugeot . A 406 estate ( as you say in the UK) 2 liter petrol. kind of a red orange color. has the extra seat row in the back . . and the usual problems. clear lacquer that is peeling away and the weird fan problems and a key that doesn't work so you have to push a code to start the car (glad I am not a bank robber ).
been reading the forum for a few hours over the last few days and real enjoy the banter and expertise in many things pug. will soon post a question about back regulators for the windows
