lottysvdub 0 Posted October 10, 2006 ive worked for peugeot and i say run with fear in your heart and dont look back never ever , sorry about that just wouldnt want to see some one spend loads out on what is commanly known in peugeot circles as the GOLDFISH POND we had no end of problems with them hence the fact i no longer work for peugeot , i would sooner spend that type of money chasing the rainbow at the end of my corrados bonnet , please do not take offence by what is after all my opinion of what lots of people love . :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rado-steve 0 Posted October 13, 2006 don't jack one up with roof down either, bends the whole chassis!!! write off time!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rado-steve 0 Posted October 13, 2006 Aye, Apparantly it has cost Kwik Fit quite a lot of money having to replace Customers damaged cars thanks to cack handed spanner monkeys! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toad 0 Posted October 13, 2006 Aye, Apparantly it has cost Kwik Fit quite a lot of money having to replace Customers damaged cars thanks to cack handed spanner monkeys! Oh dear.... Does that have anything to do with Karma? That's a serious design issue really, isn't it? if the chassis will bend when it's jacked up, then it can't be too clever in a crash... although I wouldn't imagine being t-boned with the top down would be fun anyway....

Goldie 2 Posted October 13, 2006 Good shout with the not jacking it up with the roof down. Shes done the deal and got one. Its the top spec with leather and all the rest of it, only a 1.6 though. If shes happy then ill let her get on with it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
