A nice plain English op on a car.
I purchased my Peugeot 406Hdi rapier Saloon in December 2001. Only the second brand new car I had ever purchased. The first being a Peugeot 305 a few years ago.
That car had given me many trouble free miles so I thought I would stick with them. I suppose it?s a bit like the devil you know.
As a cab driver in London it had to be a diesel car. Economy is the Number one rule as saving money these days is so important.
There was a company in Scotland offering the best deal so I phoned, and arranged delivery.
A week later my shiny metallic China blue Peugeot 406 car arrived.
I like a largish car that?s comfortable. I like reliability and economy fuel consumption. Speed is not that important, I suppose functional is the best description.
The Peugeot 406 fitted my needs on description, but ...
Advantages: Fantastic spec, high class hotel with excellent service Disadvantages: Ever so slightly out of the way
The Hotel Nikko was one of the best I have visited in the US.
We relocated to the Nikko, because our original hotel was right next to a tramline on a busy street and they were very unhelpful when we asked to move room.
The contrast when we moved to the Nikko couldn't have been greater. It was like an oasis of calm in the middle of frenetic San Francisco.
The staff were friendly and courteous and we spent a few very enjoyable days in and around San Francisco in the knowledge that we were coming back to a sanctuary every evening.
Our room was excellent. It was beautifully decorated with an oriental touch. I think the hotel is Japanese owned, which would explain the decor. In addition, our room had great views over the city, even though the location is quite low down on the skyline.
The only tiny drawback was that ...
Advantages: It got me a year no claims bonus Disadvantages: everything you can think of
My first car. My first REAL nightmare.
I know that all cars are different, but based on my experiance, im never getting another 106. I found a new problem around every corner. It was probably more to do with the fact that i got the car from a cowboy garage, compared to the car make/style, but none the less it was a real let down.
I got the car a couple of weeks after passing my test...first time i might add...aesthetically it was brilliant. Possibly not the best colour to choose, it was shannon green, but i think it was more snot green/pea green. It was a five door, Peugeot 106 XN. 1997 P-reg 1.1. Possibly the best style of car to get for a father and soon to be husband for a first car.
But, however, that is where the situation began to change. The first test drive the clutch failed to work after 5 seconds in the car! When that ...
