Slow and sluggish 406
Discussion
I've got a 51 plate 406 110bhp LX estate with wich I hope you can help me with a question.
1. The car feels a bit sluggish low down and having not owned one of these before, I'm not sure if that's the norm. I've only managed 110mph in it and with 110bhp I thought there might be a bit more in it?
Any replies would be most appreciated

You should get more, I would have thought, I used to have a TD Xantia and the would do 125 easily and I think they were only 100bhp, tops!
Try the simple stuff, check the Air filter and check the throttle cable move freely and isn't fraid, I drove a BX for about a year with a dodgy throttle cable, when I noticed it and changed it it relly flew (ish!)

I have a 52 plate 110 and it is painful! Low down there is absolutly nothing unti over 1.5K and then it starts to attempt to go!
I think it is normal, I have driven a few others which all were the same.
