I've owned a Peugeot 405 and it was a bit expensive when it came to repairs,
and there were a few big ones; engine rebuild/switch from Auto to 5 spd.  I
also ended up turning wrenches for the same Peugeot shop for a few years.
I have to say Saabs were always ahead in the $$$ category and they seemed to
break down the most, even more than the old Peugeot 505's and 405's.
