First, I know its a Peugeot, but it's old and therefore doesn't deserve any abuse!


I have in my possession, possibly the oldest surviving 106 in Britain, it is a 1991, 1.1 XR and was registered on the 8th of November, I've not been able to find another 106 from 91 on the usual sites, and this has only ever had 4 owners and hasn't left the East Midlands, ever.
So the car, well its black, polishes up well, though its lost some of its lacquer in places, rust-wise it is astonishingly good for a 1991 car, on the body. There are 2 small spots and these are surface 5 minute job types. The 1 worst bit is just on the lip of the bonnet, but is on the inside and although I'd class this as corrosion, it's easily sortable as its not on view, the engine bay could do with a clean up, but again there's no corrosion as such just a bit of surface rust.
The engine runs nicely, there is even a manual choke but this is easy enough to get to grips with, it has a full service book and was last serviced about 4,000 miles ago
It has done about 1000 miles since its last MOT when it had a new full exhaust, new cv gaiter and handbrake cable, It is being MOT'd tomorrow and I have no doubt it will pass, either way it will be sold with a full years MOT, obviously without tax.
Interior wise, it is good condition, unfortunately though at some point in its life someone swapped the front seats so they don't match the rest of the interior.


Everything works as it should (not that there's a lot to go wrong really) and even has a CD Player, I will post some pictures up tomorrow.


I'm based in South East Leicester, about 15 minutes from J21 of the M1/M69 interchange.


Price: £495 o.n.o
