My New 'Partner'

Post by Sonia406 »

It's been a while since I've posted with this Forum. I think some of you will know I picked up my new car last July, and some won't have.
Thought I'd post some photos in this section, since it's a Pug.

It's a 1.6 HDi, 120 BHP.

It has many toys - some handy, some useless (if I am honest).

The tank needed replacing and although it's not a Miss Pug, it'll certainly do - for now.

It feels SO good to pick the colour of your car, spec of your car and even the registration plate! :lol:

Got home and found the van equivalent on the drive! :lol:

Must say I am loving this dual zone air con! :lol:

Poor ''Puggles'' isn't having an easy life, he's already clocked up 5k :lol:

Thought you'd appreciate some more PUG Pictures. I love him.


EDIT: Scaling down the images :lol: :oops:

That'd be telling Lozz! Thanks for the warm welcome back. :D
It's only a 5 seater, my 'Turbo Tank' was an 8 seater! He he!
Hope you're keeping well. Nice to put some Pug pics in the Pug Pictures section! :roll: :lol:

Hi honey, welcome back. Its been quiet here lately so we could do with some controversy..... :cheesy:

I like the new car, a lady at work has one and she loves it. I thought you needed a 7 seater though?

P.s. I would expect at least 70mpg out of the mini-tank... :wink:

Ha ha, thanks GM!
I'm not surprised it's been quiet to be fair, most people don't have 406's any more!

I love mine, just hate the lack of traction from too much front end power... Constantly fighting it!

Sorry to see one was written off - Hopefully you're all okay?!

Why didn't they make a 406 GTi? I've been thinking about getting a 'toy' 206 GTi 180, and I am a big lover of the 406 after Miss P. I can't believe I parted with her over a year now. Still miss her.

I know she's being looked after and Jasper did her belts so she's easily got another 75k in her yet!

The nearest they got was a 2.2Sri, or the nice V6, or the Dogmobile........ :cheesy:

How is Lo Lo? ( I guess this is what the new one is called as its written on the display... :wink: )
