Yeah, I bought a 306 4 years ago, when I dumped by disastrous Rover
Coupe which had spent more time in the garage than out of it.  Don't
want to go there...

Back to Pugs, I bought mine because I knew at least 6 other people who
had run theirs for years with absolutely no problems whatsoever.

The thing went to the garage unscheduled once - because the clutch pedal
was squeaking.  One spray of WD-40 is the only thing other than routine
servicing (every 20K miles, so only one of those, plus the first FREE 6K
inspection) that it EVER needed (apart from tyres - but this cant be
blamed on Pug)!

Having said that, while the reliability was fantastic, they cannot touch
the german marques for quality.  Having had a BMW in the past and now an
Audi, they aint even close.  A 1990 3 series beats the most exotic
Peugeot for quality hands down even today.
