Hello Everyone,
I hope I am welcome here and looking forward to joining the Peugeot (And Others) community.
First off, bit about myself; My name is Patrick, born in Hungary, moved here in 96 and now situated in Henderson. I'm only 18 but mature enough to appreciate cars and Peugeot's just like anybody else. My dad has owned a lot of Peugeot's back in his day in Hungary which influenced me to get one because... well, aren't they just awesome!
My car; 1999 Peugeot 406 2L Manual, 126,000kms. Being young I couldn't resist but to modify it, so it has 17" Peugeot wheels from CCS, sitting on Eagle F1 GSD3's, changed seats, door cards, steering wheel to leather, HID lights, Tints, JVC Head unit. But still also trying to keep its original state. I was also lucky enough to score the perfect plates "PUG406" for it.
Ps: I think all Peugeot enthusiasts should have Eagle F1 GSD3's, simplest way to put it is; Peugeot's good handling + Eagle F1's insane grip = insanely grippy good handling car, you can tackle any corner at high speed (Even in the wet!!)
Good to see another enthusiest! Welcome along.
Don't forget to put pics up :)
choice, welcome, and yes, pics please
Howdy,
welcome along.
Pug's rock and if you own one (which you do)

Pics are up on the Fastfrogs Photobucket account. They are rubbish photos from here and there, the proper photos are on the other computer, will upload tomorrow. I also put up 2 video's of it on the Dyno where it ran 84KW ATW.

Is that KICK ASS standing by your car?
They are supposed to be Ninja's, 5 of em. The 5 girls actually got their outfits from a sex store and modified them. That photo was taken at a "Car Rally" where you have a list of whacky stuff to do (Kind of like the American Race). I was assigned as the driver (So luckily I didn't have to dress up, but my car had to :'(, it was nicknamed "Ginger Ninja" that day. For me, it was a good test to see how well it did with 6 people (4 sat in the backseat very comfortably) climbing the steepest of hills.

Spotted you this morning on New North Rd just before Paknsave, I was in the other lane a couple of cars back, didn't manage to get up along side though.

New North Road? I don't think that wasn't me :O. My car is distinguishable by the plate "PUG406" now. Good to see your on the lookout though :D. I do live out west in Henderson, you would probably see me there or in town? :)
Was definitely you, had the PUG406 plate, after Blockhouse bay road going towards the city on New North, just before paknsave which is on the left

That is so weird... So, Blue facelift Peugeot 406 with PUG406 Plate? What Time in the morning? I know I woke up at 9 and put the car on the pit to change the fog lights, drove from Henderson to Swanson at 11, went to work in Henderson from 12 til 4. Went to town via motorway at 5 and came back at 10. And I'm sure no one else in my family would have driven my car. I think I may just put my car up for sale as a "Ninja Peugeot".
Hmmmm, no mistaking the plate thats for sure, maybe it was friday morning I saw you and not yesterday.

Next time you see it and its not me driving it, hunt them down.
I do go past New North Road almost everyday at the Symonds St, Kyber Pass, Newton Rd, New North Rd intersection, pretty close to the French cafe funnily enough, if that's what you mean??
Was along here about 8am ish, on week day morning.
