The Peugeot 405, a mid-size saloon car produced by the French automaker Peugeot from 1987 to 1997, marked a significant shift in the company's design philosophy. It was the first Peugeot to feature the brand's new, more angular styling language, a stark departure from the more rounded designs of the past. Known for its spacious interior, comfortable ride, and refined handling, the 405 quickly gained popularity across Europe and beyond. Its success was further solidified when it was named European Car of the Year in 1988, a prestigious recognition that cemented its status as a benchmark in the mid-size segment.

Under the hood, the 405 offered a range of petrol and diesel engines, catering to diverse driver preferences and needs. From the economical 1.6-liter engine to the more powerful 1.9-liter diesel and the spirited 2.0-liter petrol unit, the 405 provided a strong and reliable powertrain for everyday driving. The car was also available in a variety of body styles, including the standard saloon, a station wagon variant known as the "Break," and a sporty coupe version dubbed the "405 Mi16." Despite being discontinued in 1997, the Peugeot 405 remains a popular choice for those seeking a classic yet reliable French car, with its timeless design and robust build quality standing the test of time.
