  Handsome, useful and beautifully equipped,  this week’s star of the classifieds  is one of the last truly great Peugeots - certainly until the brand’s recent return to form. Not only is it a 406 estate - a car that, in its day, was one of the most useful load-luggers on the market - but it’s also the 3.0-litre V6 model with 210bhp on tap.  Coupled to an automatic gearbox, it’s a beautifully smooth combination, and looks really quite upmarket in dark metallic grey.

  Take a break: The Quality Connection 18 Feb 2014 (News)
  This Leyland Group Quality video, produced by the CTV Workshop in 1976, and intended for viewing by company employees only, starred a blue-chip line-up of actors, and was typical of BL's desperate push to improve the quality of he cars being built across the company. Quality, the film reasons, is all about specification, and is everyone’s responsibility. Skimp on it, and there could be serious ramifications. The film was clearly designed to shock the workforce into re-evaluating their own working practices, is refreshingly frank, and shows that BL was all-too-aware of the deep and ingrained problems it was facing at the time.
