Description
Unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in 1996, the Peugeot 406 Coupé was sold from 1997 until 2004 with over 107, 000 units produced (initially production was planned for 70, 000 units). Of course, there were 3 generations (phase 1 from 1997 to 1999, phase 2 (the most produced) from 1999 to 2003 and finally, phase 3 from 2003 to 2004). And various engine options, ranging from 135 to 210 bhp.
The Peugeot 406 Coupé enjoyed great success amongst enthusiasts of the marque, firstly because the brand revived its tradition of offering a Coupé for sale, but also because it was a collaboration with Pininfarina, like many beautiful classic Peugeots. Its successor, the 407 Coupé, would change the styling considerably (it was no longer signed by Pininfarina).
NYC's presents for sale this fine example with a 3. 0-litre V6 petrol engine in blue (quite sought-after), black fabric interior with 131, 100 km on the clock. Delivered new in July 2000, its last French owner registered it in July 2014. Unfortunately, we do not have the full service history of this Peugeot 406 Coupé.
The bodywork is in average condition, mainly due to the paintwork which ideally needs attention: clouding on the right rear flank, colour variation at the door level, minor impact on the boot lid.
The interior presents well but there is overall wear due to its age and use: seat fabric and door panels showing signs of peeling, steering wheel, gear knob, plastics showing wear marks, let's say it's in acceptable condition.
Regarding the mechanics, we don't have recent service invoices, however we can confirm it drives very well (over 30 km covered to reach our premises). Starting, acceleration, braking – nothing to fault on these points, the driving pleasure is definitely there.
Incidentally, the latest MOT report (June 2024 – 130, 682 km) mentions no issues with this fine Peugeot 406 Coupé.
Of course, we're aware that this Peugeot 406 Coupé isn't perfect, our (modest) asking price reflects all these elements, but let's not forget the potential of this Peugeot: it's a 3. 0-litre V6 petrol, manual gearbox, with good mileage, relatively sound condition (room for improvement) and above all, with a superb colour combination… in other words, the potential is there, it just needs a bit of freshening up to make it a real beauty, it's well worth it…
A vehicle lift is available at our premises to show you the underside of the vehicle.
