Re: Another bargain!
Looked like Mercedes badges or something. Easy enough to replace, unlike that awful arch bling.

Re: Another bargain!
I didn't know those arch bling things were even available for the 406. I wonder how they were attached*

Re: Another bargain!
Not something I've ever seen, I presume they're from the Halfords "Tacky Bling" range. I dread to think how they're attached.

Re: Another bargain!
and the award for best half-arsed car advert goes to
Even with its "knocking brakes" and wonky UJ they must be something about the poor old thing that is worth bigging-up for the advert.
Verdict: break it for parts, collect more moneh, then send over the bridge.
Oh god here's another one clinging onto life by a thread: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/peugeot-406-e ... 2398809829
Lol's at the 'on a flatbed' picture redeeming feature being a 7-seater perhaps.
Such a shame seeing D9's falling over like this, there's never really anything major wrong with them other than being unloved and uncared for by numpty owners on a shoestring.

The rear axle has collapsed so will need rebuilding. I started taking the axle off but then I realised I had bugger all change of getting any parts for it whatsoever so I gave up.

Re: Another bargain!
Just looked at the 'underside' photos - there's a lot of rust! the ARB? almost looks sheared/split.
Maybe it spent its life in a field or summat?
A sad end to a Partner 4-Dangle that's for sure.
