The Peugeot 405, a mid-size car produced by the French automaker Peugeot from 1987 to 1998, is known for its elegant design, spacious interior, and impressive handling. The 405, available in various body styles including a saloon, estate, and coupé, was a significant success for Peugeot, establishing the brand as a strong contender in the European market. The model's popularity was driven by its comfortable ride, reliable performance, and relatively affordable price point. The 405 was also a pioneer in safety technology, being one of the first cars to offer standard ABS on many of its models.

The 405 was initially offered with a range of petrol engines, including the 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 1.9, and 2.0 liter units. These engines were available in both SOHC (Single Overhead Camshaft) and DOHC (Double Overhead Camshaft) configurations, providing a balance of power and fuel efficiency. However, the most celebrated variant was the 405 Mi 16, powered by a 1.9-liter DOHC engine developed in collaboration with renowned motorsport engineer, Jean-Pierre Jabouille. This powerful engine, generating 158 hp, propelled the Mi 16 to impressive performance levels, making it a formidable competitor on the racetrack and a true enthusiast's dream. The 405, with its various engine options and body styles, appealed to a wide range of drivers, establishing itself as a versatile and dependable vehicle.
