In the end when we were looking at it with the bodyshop owner we decided that there was actually more that needed doing then we had originally noticed, there was a little bubble on the C pillar and the paint on the boot lid and roof was starting to blister ever so slightly.
We ended up leaving the bodyshop having given him the go ahead to give the car a full respray and the results are amazing. We've had it since it was just over 6 months old having been a Peugeot UK management car (10 year on 14th Feb actually) and have no intentions of getting rid of it as it's worth nothing these days we thought we might as well get it back to showroom condition. The wheels were refurbished last month as well.
It's one of the last ones made, red seems to be quite a rare colour and being the V6 manual it's quite a special car
The guy hasn't put the 406 badge on quite right, it's not quite straight. It's an awkward one though as the number don't actually sit straight. I've ordered a new set as they come with the template to fit them with and they are only 8 quid.
