2000 Beautiful Peugeot 406 1.9TDi GLX - Last Owner 20 Years For Sale

There has been a movement happening in the car world for some time now whereby people are becoming tired of the “modern annoyances” of current cars and are favouring older cars (yet still modern enough to be comfortably used as reliable daily transport). To give you an example, it is entirely possible to jump into your modern car and it subjecting you to a series of bings and warnings to inform you that your tyre pressures are a milifraction lower than they should be and that your Particulate Filter is clogged up because you have only covered 50 miles this week as opposed to 150, and the biggest one: the engine management light coming on putting the car into limp mode due to some errant sensor having a bad day when in actual fact your engine and gearbox are absolutely fine. Cars now seem to be ever increasingly over complicated and its a reversal back to simple cars that is providing comfort to an ever increasing number of people.

One such car is our beloved 406 Diesel that Bradley James Classics are proud to offer for sale here. The 406 at the time was an immensely popular series of saloons and estates selling particularly well and offering a wide selection of trims and models to fit all budgets. Despite that, they are very seldomly seen on the roads in 2021 and seeing, sitting in, and driving ours has reminded us just how good these cars were and we feel it is a prime candidate for making a sensible alternative to the modern daily car.

Our car is the perfect blend of performance, comfort and economy being the 1. 9TD (an exceptionally good engine) GLX (the comfortable well appointed one). It has covered 148, 000 careful miles and is in that era of Diesels whereby they could cover vast mileages with (in comparison to modern ones) very little to go wrong and stop them. In particular the 1. 9 unit fitted here had an exemplary reputation in this department and is pre “common rail” where things got a lot less reliable.

Despite its miles and age its condition completely defies this and you feel as though you are looking at and sitting in a much younger car. The car was bought at one year old at the Peugeot main dealer by the Mechanic and MOT tester that worked at that Dealer and he has owned and maintained it for the last 20 years - ownership and maintenance history do not come any better than that and it clearly shows in the cars condition and the way it drives today. It has recently had a new set of matching tyres, brakes renewed and all little advisories noted on the MOT taken care of. She starts on the button and drives beautifully returning exceptional MPG with brisk performance. Her Air Conditioning (Climate Control in this case being a GLX) blows ice cold.

Externally she presents very well with nice metallic blue coachwork, alloy wheels and the little chrome strips that gave the GLX a nice classy appearance. She is 21 years old and has covered a fair few miles so one has to set expectations accordingly: it is inevitable that you will get the odd scratch, mark and stone chip along the way and these are highlighted in the 12 minute walk round video that can be found on youtube.

Step inside and you are greeted with an exceptionaly nice interior that takes you straight back to how things were a couple of decades ago with beautifully finished and comfortable velour seats with carpets that are in fabulous condition. The wood inserts on the doors remind you of its GLX stature as does all the extra features that this model brought with it.


The bookpack and very healthy history file accompany the car along with its two original remote fob keys giving the car a wonderfully maintained provinence.

In short this is an exceptionally well loved and maintained 406 GLX in excellent condition. It has the best engine and trim combination and given the way its been looked after should provide reliable economical and simple motoring for a long time to come making a very sensible alternative to a frustrating (and boring!) modern car.

Please take a look at the full walk round video on youtube. Nationwide delivery at very reasonable cost can also be arranged.
