Just sharing…

Drove to Krabi, Thailand for vacation over the weekend with my Pug 408T. Total mileage clocked was about 1300km, average FC was 7.6l/100km. Used cruise control most of the time while on the freeway.

Hi SKYJack,

Thanks for the heads-up, i called the advertiser but ts a gimmick. Reading carefully, the headline is for both turbo and premium griffe, so 117k is for turbo after discount etc.

too good to be true wink.gif

Since there's no discount for Griffe and we already have a turbo, therefore, we had book a 208 and save 30k instead wink.gif. 208 for my wife to drive in the jam. I didn't see any forum for 208 tho, any ideas?

Hey hi
So it was a advert gimmick la...hahaha. Ya it is too good to be true,especially since the 408Griffe was introduced just a couple of months back.

I did see a 208 thread. Everyone is very pleased with the car. I think it's a great little car for the wife to potter around. I'll post the link should I come across it again.

Sounds interesting, which documents are needed for the car to go to Thailand? How long is the immigration/custom process?

rclxms.gif rclxms.gif that's the one..overall I'm satisfied with it..the GPS is more like PAPAGO type which I've tested it & works like a charm..but for playing DVD, it won't show the movie when the car is moving (the screen will go blank & a safety message will come out)..you can only hear the sound..well, need to find a way to override that (for passengers la)..not me.. tongue.gif

What price you got it at. Was it direct owner or dealer? Don't forget to get warranty transferred to you!

Bought from Kota Damansara Peugeot showroom. It was the test drive unit - 6 months old. I guess some members here have driven the car before biggrin.gif Bought for 100k excluding insurance and tinting. 5 years warranty on parts only.

I signed the manual and warranty booklet, but the name written there is the dealership's name. The SA told me that that is all I need to do, for warranty to be transferred to me. Can anyone please share your knowledge on this?

Thanks!

Probably by circuit board/cable or grounding cable problem. This cause unstable current flow rate. drive in to the SC to check it out.
