The Peuzy is dark blue, and I'm only returning next saturday. Where did you think to have spotted me? Well, anyway, it would have been too big a coincidence, the 406 Break is a hot selling car among the dutchies. And this Carnaval holliday there's loads and loads of dutchies travelling to and from the alps. The trip here was a disaster by the way, the Switzies decided this was the ideal time to start redoinging two or three of the long tunnels on the (certainly at this time of year) crowded piece of road between Basel and Egerkingen. It took us 7 hours to get from our sleepover in Neustadt (GE) to final destination in Wallis (CH), normally a mere 4 hour trip. And as for the experience in the alps with the 75HP 406, when alone in the car it's not too bad, but with the family, luggage and all in it, it's a nerve wrecker, you keep looking in the rearview mirror, if there's no queue of annoyed drivers behind you. and look for a spot to pull over for a sec and let them pass. Anyway, the trick is to keep it above 3000 RPM going uphil, or else you loose all power. There seems to be a turbo under the hood somewhere, and relatively spoken, the cas has some more power when you apply it. Seen a lot of hot 9-5 's here already, and even a 9000 aero. The guys here just spend a bit more on tehi wheels, and given the local conditions, wisely spend it on power... Regds, Nel
