Peugeot 407 SW Full Road Test Report

The Peugeot 407 SW is one of the best looking estates on the road - with its angled rear and short overhang it has certainly left the boxy estate looking dated. But is it style with no substance? For the average 4.2 family the 407 SW should have what it takes as long as you don’t have any six footers to accommodate.... read more

As the second largest car manufacturer in Europe, Peugeot has come a long way from its roots in bicycle making in the late 19th Century.As the second largest car manufacturer in Europe, Peugeot has come a long way from its roots in bicycle making in the late 19th Century.

The company produced its first car, a three-wheeled steam-powered vehicle, in 1889, but it was the post-war era that saw the Peugeot brand catapult in popularity. In 1974, Peugeot bought a 30% stake in Citroen and by 1975 had gained control of the company completely. The group also took over the European division of Chrysler in 1978.

Peugeot model names are based on size and number (the first number indicating size, the last number indicating model number) – a Peugeot 407 therefore being bigger and newer than the Peugeot 306.

Today, Peugeot offers an extensive range of popular vehicles starting with the Peugeot 1007, a concept car, through to MPVs and vans. Its most popular models are in the mid-size range and Peugeot has gained plaudits too for the quality of its vehicles having won the accolade of European car of the year on three occasions – the most recent being in 2002 for the Peugeot 307.

With an esteemed history in vehicular production, Peugeot remains a master of all trades and no matter what type of car you’re looking for the Peugeot range is sure to fulfill your needs.

Peugeot 1007 1.6 2006

Nice, but a bad 2-tronic gearbox which is a pity as with a good gearbox it would be a nice city car.

Steve Bradbury, Scotland

Peugeot 207 1.6 VTi 120 Sport 2007

I purchased my new 207 in October with an additional body kit which I had seen in the showroom. I had no problems until 4 weeks ago when the car broke down on the motorway with an indication of low oil pressure. The oil was fine and I was towed to the dealers that I had purchased it from. One month later I still don’t have the car and they are replacing the engine after many promises to have it fixed earlier. The excuses have been varied. I am disappointed with the service given and yet to have my car back.

S Frost, Suffolk

Peugeot 206 Roland Garros 1999

I used to be loyal to Ford, but not since I got my Peugeot 206 Roland Garros in 2001 for £6k. I have it serviced regularly, and it's nippy, reliable and still going strong. I've had a few small parts replaced that have worn out. It's done just over 90,000 miles and I do around 10,000 miles a year, including driving on dual carriageways to get to work and back. The climate controlled aircon works a treat, the petrol consumption is around 40 - 50mpg. It corners better than the Ford Puma, and unlike Ford, extras (like aluminum wheels, aircon, 6 x CD stack in the boot with the control at your fingertips on a stalk by the steering wheel) came included in the price (and it was still cheaper than the Puma). DOWNSIDES: 1) I hate the intermittent automatic windscreen wipe that seems not to turn on when you need it, and go bonkers when you don't need it. Ford's intermittent wiper control was much better. 2) I am averagely tall (5 ft 8 inches) and when the sun visor is down, visibility is severely restricted. 3) There is no windscreen demister (like you have on the rear windscreens on most cars) - you have to rely on the blower. 4) It has occasional phases where it kangaroos for seemingly no reason at all.

Peugeot Partner Combi 2002

As soon as I saw it I fell in love with it. I have helped my son move flat three times. I have collected a washing machine and a fridge from Asda. I have driven 400 miles and not felt tired. It drives beautifully and the high position is perfect. It is very reliable and economical to run. Because it is a diesel the mileage does not really matter. Buy one of these and service it regularly and you will get 250k easily. It is practical and apparently as ugly as sin . I like it because it kind of says that I do not give a toss. I drove a medium sized car the other day and it was a terrible experience. Keep it nice and ignore the critics - you will always get a private buyer and a stack of your cash back --- keep it nice though.

Peugeot 4007 2.2 HDi 156 GT 2007

I test drove this and the Toyota Rav4, which I fully expected to prefer but was very pleasantly surprised with the 4007. I have driven a number of Peugeot cars over the years so think it’s just down to personal taste. Well built and handles really well. Good amount of space and a much better price than the Rav4.

Peugeot 207 CC 1.6 2007

Fabulous car until the day when it started to show that the Depollution system was faulty. Went to a mechanic but shortly afterwards it started to turn off, make strange sounds while on and continued to show the Depollution system fault. Went to mechanic again, but same thing all over again.

Peugeot 306 Diesel HDi 2001

Thanks to fuel prices I’ve parked up my ST220 in favour of the 306 HDi, I’ve had a couple of these and the all round economy is great, handling is great, there is the cheaper tax make it a great buy. Mine has done 73k. If you are clocking up the miles then look for one with my kind of miles, obviously it needs to have been serviced but I would recommend a 306 five door, definately the best.

Peugeot 1007 1.6 2 Tronic 2008

Apparently it’s just been discontinued which is a shame because it’s a great little car now that the bugs have been worked out. The best part is the huge discounts on left over stock. I found a funny looking green one with blue interior reduced by 35%. It’s fully loaded and for that price I would only get a very cheap 107 with no extras. I get people staring all the time in amazement at my funny green thing and it’s really grown on me. I wish Peugeot would hang in there like smart did. The 1007 deserves to succeed, it just needs a bit more refinement and some time to find it’s feet. Ahead of the curve but just out of touch.
