I have a 406 Pug That may be of interest to you. It would be no good for plating but it would be great for spares should you need any. I also have a 51 plate 406 that is gas converted that I can,t plate after next year that you may be interested in. :wink:

CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHERE TO FIND A PULSE WIRE ON A 98 406 2LTR PETROL ALSO IF I NEED A CAN
THANKS IN ADVANCE


Normally a red and yellow behind the radio
Why are you putting a 12 year old pug on when you can get a brand new skoda with no deposit from the taxi centre for £40 a week



Mention Skippy 41 when you order, so he gets his kickback...

My meter setter had to take the pulse from the ABS system when I had a 406.

406 petrol - 25mpg
skoda octavia 1.6 tdi - 55mpg

but maybe you dont do many miles

i wont go into warranty, image, comfort, abs/airbags, lower VED, etc, etc, when i ran vans as a courier i had your attitude, but a pallet wont often comment that the engine sounds knackered and the seat is sagging or the door just dropped off

having said that, many companies insist on a maximum of 3 year old vans or no work.
