Peugeot road test reports and car reviews

Peugeot 4007 2008

This would be a great car, but get the Mitsubishi Outlander version or maybe the citroen version. The Head Gasket blew on mine after 16,000 miles and Peugeot won’t pay out on the warranty. The first dealership I took it to failed to repair it and sent it back out without any coolant in it. (Evans Halshaw, Edinburgh). The second dealership wouldn’t put in the warranty claim and want to charge me £3500 instead. Peugeot customer service managers are pretty rude, and not once did they apologise for the inconvenience; so obviously badly trained. I had to point out at one point that they were supposed to offer the service and I was supposed to be the customer. There was no comment. They were only interested in making sure they didn’t have to pay anything, certainly not in the needs of the customer. I will be complaining further and will update if we get any joy.

Peugeot 107 2006

I owned a Ford Scorpio before I owned a 107, as I had to pack up work through an accident. I purchased 107 because of low running costs, the car is perfect for short or long journeys, I am 6" 2 tall. And the service I get from Becks in Eastbourne is 1st class. I have just purchased a 2008 Peugeot 207 1.6 hdi se premium and if that is as good as the 107 I shall be very pleased. By the way, I have given 107 to wife, she loves it too.

Peugeot 1007 2009

I love the car, its such an all rounder. From the inside I prefer it to the other more expensive cars, from the outside it just grows on you. I would recommend it to anyone!!

Peugeot 1007 1.4DHi Sport 2005

Hi to all. Well after four years of virtual trouble free ownership of what I considered a great little car with execptional MPG, always 60+ returns, I am now suffering an horrendous amount of faults, all appearing just before an MOT (NCT in Ireland). Passenger door has failed completey, won’t open with pully or close, just beeps all the time; ABS/EPS warning light comes on; windscreen washers not working. All enought to fail a test in it’s own right let alone all together. Very pi**ed off, and now living on disability. I’ll get a garage to look at dust on wheel sensors as stated above by someone, any other advice would be appreciated.    

Peugeot 306 Vivant 1998

1.6 Petrol Vivant with 100,000 miles, now had it for 5yrs, got it when it had done 88,000. A bit thirsty around the houses but on a long run it’s good very good economy. It’s had 2 exhausts, and brake pipe went on front nearside but apart from that no problems. A cracking car. Had a 1988 1.4 SR 205 before that and that went like a rocket and another cracking car peugoet are a good brand, saving up to get a 308 now if its half as good as the 306 it will be going some!

Peugeot 107 Kiss 2008

It’s a great little car and does what it’s supposed to do and even a little more if you ask it nicely. Brilliant urban runabout and not out of place on the motorway although it can be tiring on a long journey. The only thorn in the side is Peugeot, their customer service is dreadful. Last week I spent four hours in the middle of the coldest wettest winter nights trying to remove a rusted on wheel (flat tyre). According to Peugeot this is a "self inflicted fault" and not covered by their breakdown service. Buy the Toyota Aygo, same brilliant little car, better customer service.

Peugeot 308 4C5FW 2009

I have recently purchased a Peugeot 308 tvi 5 dr hatchback. Whilst the car has a great stylish and stream lined look both inside and out and the petrol consumption is very good there are however a few what I think are bad points. Firstly the main concern is the drivers windscreen wiper which happens to be shorter than the passenger side so if you are tall the top half of the screen is still obscured after wiping also the way the wipers are set up, the passenger wiper has the last downward stroke so that means there is always a line left in the drivers field of vision. Not good. I have tried to find if there is a way of swapping the wipers over so the larger wiper is on the drivers righthand side but apparently the wiper timing mechinism would need to be altered so they would not catch each other. There would be no problem if the driver was on the lefthand side. I would like to know if the company/Peugeot garages can modify the wiper or give a solution to solve this issue or if anything can be done to aleviate this problem? Other than this the car is a nice drive, quite nippy and has good fuel consumption.

Peugeot 206 2003

I got this car and my dreams came true. I love this car so much but it is a shame that it isn’t a female otherwise I would get married to it. That’s all. thanks for reading.

Peugeot 407 Coupe HDi GT V6 2.7 auto-tip 2007

Uncompromisingly designed for super torque power cruse driving, the 407 v6 twin turbo coupe oil burner muscles itself around the highway with incredible finesse and confidence. Why this remarkable coupe was marketed as 407 I shall never know as it is only the design lines of the panels that provide the visual association to its saloon brother. But that’s where the similarity ends as nothing on the saloon it brought over to the coupe it’s a completely different car. I owned a top of the range 407 saloon 2.0 diesel and wanted a coupe so purchased the 407 coupe thinking that I would be getting the saloon with two doors. Nothing could be further from the truth. The dual turbochargers kick out torque so relentlessly there is just no waiting for power and it is delivered effortlessly and under full control of the hyper stiff chassis. Purchased mine for £6.5k at 2.5 years old but if you have money to burn then buy a Germanic badge for loads of money more, three times more. But if you’re just a regular man that wants your money to take you as far as you can as fast as you can, then get one of these kick arse beasts and enjoy.

Peugeot 306 Hatchback 1998

A very well built and well equipped car with quite a few luxuries for a car of this age, a good strong body with no rust, the inside is comfortable with plenty of leg room, but the head height is a little low. Very good fuel economy and a low insurance band.

Peugeot 206 1.4 HDi 70 LX 2003

Hi, I bought my 206 1.4 HDi LX in late 2003 brand new and its has been fabulous to own, Excellent reliability and fantastic fuel economy. Plus the £35 per year tax is a huge bonus. I have over 130000 Miles on it and all I have had to do is change the T/Belt and service it regulary. One suggestion I would make is that if you hear a knocking noise from the area around the wheels it a drop link arm, they are cheap (£7) and easy to fix. The main cause is speed ramps, I hav 8 ramps to drive over to get to my housing development, just think how many times the car has been over them (Roughly 4 times a day) and the front one started to rattle recently, they have lasted nearly 7 years!! This is a great car for first time drivers and anybody who is thinking of changing their bigger cars for something smaller or newer. I’m not planning on changing anytime soon, i’ll drive the car into the ground before I get rid!! Will definately be buying the 207 in the near future

Peugeot 308 1.6hdi 2007

I had a chance to test drive a 308 the other day and was struck by the strong tendency to pull to the left. The salesman told me it was the road camber, then the tyre pressure, then the tracking, then different tyres etc. If this is a safety feature it’s lunacy .... other than that it was a nice car. Reading the previous reviews and the left pull thing was interesting.

Peugeot 206 Van standard 2004

Bought this van with 46k miles on it in Dec 2007. It now has 107k on it (Feb 2010). Apart from a noisy water pump which cost £100 to replace at local repairer, and routine tyres and servicing, I have not had to spend on this fantastic van. Averaging 55-60mpg on private use, it is comfortable, a little noisy and a joy to own. Peugeot, I would not hesitate to buy another of your products!

Peugeot 207 CC 2007

I bought my car 2 years ago, from the first four weeks of me having it the depollution light keeps coming on and engine mangement light comes on then loses power when driving. I thought it was just my car until reading on here that other people have the same problem. I have lost count how many times its been in the garage, this car is a total nightmare going to ring trading standards tomorrow.

Peugeot 206 2007

Cheap comfortable little runaround, ideal for students, cheap on petrol, smooth drive, safe!

Peugeot 306 1.4 LX 1999

For some reason Peugeot seemed to scrap the ’look’ of the 306 (and indirectly the 106) by introducing the 307, clearly a more family orientated car that, I think, has far less appeal. WHY!?! Even the earliest 306s can be seen on the roads by those who pay out to service them and even modify them. This is because even those early 1990s models have far more appeal than, say, a Fiesta from the same decade. The last 306s to be made before the 307 managed to take an old design and make it appear very modern. The car’s proportions just look spot on, the lines naturally flowed and the door handles didn’t portrude. But, ultimately, the front end just looked like a boy. A boy with its eyes half-closed and concentrating hard on something in the distance. When they’re parked up they kinda look like they’re still moving. For some, the 206 was more desirable as it was smaller and more feminine. Which is great. Girls look good in 206s. But put a girl in a 306 and she looks like trouble, like Michelle Rodriguez in Resident Evil or something. Or Avatar, or SWAT, or whatever else she’s in. The 306 was one of the few genuinely attractive cars for almost every demographic, such as: Families; enough room in the back to put in a child seat and a ’grown up’ feel. Boy racers; the car was easiy modified and looked good in the first place so didn’t need thousands spent on new lights and bodykits. Enough room for your mates too. Students; smallish engines weren’t too pricey and surely a better alternative to a Fiesta, 106, Clio, Saxo etc. Petrol heads; GTI6 was nippy. Mums; big boot for big boots. It’s easy to see how the car fits onto anyone’s driveway. A lot of estates are used by tradesmen too since they are huge, handle well, look tidy and, with a diesel engine, last for years. If only the gearbox wasn’t made from cheese I would still have one.

Peugeot 206 CC 2005

I am in love with this car and am dreading the day it gets old, a bit expensive to service but I wouldn’t drive anything else.

Peugeot 407 134 HDi 2007

I’ve been driving for 38 years and this car is the best I have ever owned. It has everything that I want fitted as standard. The ride/roadholding is superb, brilliant engine returning mid 30’s MPG for general driving and I have had close to 60 MPG on a long trip to the South of France. Very good six speed box that gives the diesel engine very close to petrol engine performance. I wish that Peugeot would bring out a CC version of the Coupe, that would be my next car without a doubt.

Peugeot 206 2002

Been good to me for 7 years!! Not much work has had to be done but my top tips include: Careful when windy as the doors swing wide open! (I had to have a new door!). Also I accidently left my window open and the inside froze, I now have a problem with steaming up and cannot dry the car out, lol!!

Peugeot 407 SW Exectutive 3.0 2005

The car is faultless but the dealer service is something to desire ie., they don’t understand what perforation rust to aerface rust on the rear door handle area (they dont want to do anything that costs them), the rear door handle is fitted by a child with no consideration of what pig iron (the bolts) does to painted areas " rust " now sorted by me.

Peugeot 206 1998

I bought the Peugeot 206 ’98 edition from a car sales room in November last year. It looked really nice and I didn’t think it was as old as it is just by looking at it, showing how lovely and cared for it had been! The car had done a lot of miles but according to its service history had had its cambelt done at 100,000 miles so it didn’t seem a problem. The car is a 1.6 sport edition so is quite a speedy little number and picks up speed reasonably quickly. There is one issue with it regarding it failing to start at all sometimes, but that’s nothing a slamming of the door can’t solve. Bit of a nuisance really but it’s not so bad the car won’t start at all.. or eventually. The Peugeots are known to fall apart eventually but this car is 12 years old and nothings fallen off yet! Although the inside door panelling on the left seems to be a little loose and it looks like the pegs have popped out. The seats are comfortable and easy to adjust and the heater works really well, perfect for them cold, nippy days! It also has a sunroof, which I’ve not had the chance to test out yet, obviously, I’ve accidentally pressed the button a few times however and it hasn’t done anything so not really sure if it works. All in all not bad for a starter car, although it can be a killer on petrol!

Peugeot 207 CC 1.6 Sport 2007

Mine’s been in garage for depollution fault 5 times since bought from new. The garage have renewed the sensors 4 times and renewed half of the electrical harness the 5th time. I am selling the car because the warranty runs out this year. The garage said I wasn’t doing enough miles. I only do under 10,000 a year. I had the car serviced because they then said it was that but it still happened. There is obviously a problem with other people’s judging by the other posts I have read but the garage said they had not heard of this fault before. I wouldn’t buy another Peuguot again!

Peugeot 5008 2.0 HDi 150 Exclusive 2009

WOWWWWWW!! I can’t believe it’s a Peugeot, it’s so lovely built, beautiful to drive and the engine is a cracker. So you can imagine why I had no trouble deciding whether I should trade in my c**p, unreliable, cheaply made Ford S Max 2.0 TDCi Zetec. The 5008 is worth twice of the SMAX because the Ford is awful. Top Gear reckon the Smax is an MPV that can be seen in, but you would be lucky if you were seen in it at all because it’s so unreliable! The Peugeot is like a Rolls Royce of the people carriers, the Ford is the Lada of the people carriers. I can recommend this to anyone without even doubting it for one minute.

Responses to this review

I can’t agree enough with you. I have ordered my 5008 and I’m also trading in a SMax Zetec 1.8 TDCi and to be honest I cannot wait to see the back of it because it is rubbish. I have read that for a good driving MPV to stick with the SMax but trust me, DON’T. It isnt overly fuel efficient of comfortable, The electrics suffer from glitched were the lights and radio will cut out and the boot lid handle, which is electronic sometimes does not open. Also the 3 rows of seats are cramped and there’s no head room, it’s no wonder the magazine ’which car’ reveled that the Galaxy and SMax were the two worst MPVs on the market. The new 5008 is strange because you sit really high up but the classy centre console sits up high so you actually feel like you are in a sports car. I could only afford the 1.6 HDI 110 Sport and the engine provides great pull when wanting to overtake and it is very smooth with excellent refinement. No wonder it won What Car MPV of the year 2010. Peugeot are onto a winner along with the striking 3008 - Ryan Johnston from Essex

Peugeot Boxer boxter motorhome 2009

Bought new motorhome with 3.0ltr engine 2009, after 4000 miles the clutch went! Had previously taken van to the garage regarding the clutch, they said it was fine so went off to France and 1500 miles later the clutch went. Peugeot don’t give a s**t, they say it is the drivers fault. I had to pay the dealer for the new clutch, €600, said it was wear and tear. Why and how can they get away with putting these motorhomes on to these chassis?

Responses to this review

Hi, I have a Boxer 3.0 HDi Elddis Autoquest 150 motorhome and the motorhome itself is grand, but the chassis and cabin is first class. I have had absolutely no problems with it since i purchased it in 2008 and with over 12000 Miles on the clock I have experienced no trouble at all. The clutch did judder when there was about 3000 miles on the clock but it was easily cured thanks to my local Peugeot dealership (Roadside Motors Peugeot, Armagh) The engine is flexible and there is lots of torque when its needed. Before this motorhome I owned a 2001 Boxer 2.8 HDi SX Autosleeper Talisman GX and I drove it until I got this one and it gave me no trouble at all. My son and grandsons would take it down to the south of Ireland towing their trailer containing two scramblers and all their paraphernalia, and it never let us down. I can recommend these to anybody - Frank Kelly from County Armagh

Peugeot 207 2door 2006

Bought this pile of junk new, numerous faults eventually cured by a dealer who couldn’t really care less. Comfortable but deadly slow and sluggish, just too heavy for a 1.4 engine. Steering was rubbish very hard to keep in a straight line. The dealer said no fault found. Eventually traded it in after 18 months for a Kia Rio, which is a much better car, at least it hasn’t broken down or had anything drop off.

Peugeot 107 urban 2006

I loved this car, it’s cheap to run smart and nippy and has ample space for luggage. The only problem is the clutch!!! It’s an 06 and done 33k miles and I can hear a knocking sound when the clutch peddle is down. I am told the clutch is on its way out and got the speech about driver error/riding clutch/resting foot on peddle causes wear etc. I know its not driver error, I drive it like ’Miss Daisy’. It appears this is a common problem with the 107, C1 and Aygo. Not great value for around £8k.

Responses to this review

Same here, bought the 107 in October, it’s had 2 new clutches due to pressure plate and pressure bearings. within 5,000 miles (the car’s only done 65,000 mile and is 06 plate) I’m getting the bad knocking sounds again. Took it back to the dealers and they’re saying it’s wear and tear etc., "...and we do have to question the driving style as it has had two brand new clutches", felt like ripping his head off! Spoke to Peugeot but they didn’t want to know. It’s all about the money now. No one cares for the customer and there’s no more loyalty these days - Matt from England

Peugeot Expert 2006

My van is used to carry our wheel chairs, only 17500 miles on clock in three years, I don’t think much of it. We got the plain 1900cc, it has no guts.

Peugeot 307 1.4 petrol 2007

Purchased when 13 months old and it seemed like brand new! It’s been very reliable and a pleasure to drive.. obviously not a ’boy racer’ type car but not sluggish either! Passengers also seem surprised at the space inside the car and comment on the good leg room in the back. We’ve been very pleased with our choice of our Peugeot car and I love the Cruise Control and Speed Limiter...very useful around town and with all the speed cameras that have appeared over the years!!

Peugeot Boxer 2000

I bought the van on the hop, the Transit rust was over the top, a new mot, for which I was grateful would this joy last ? It was doubtful, first a tyre that just gave up the ghost then a new clutch, too much for most, I couldn’t get second so off came the cable, I had it a week on my kitchen table. Then trouble with starting, the motor jammed; a new one of those was not what I had planned, glow plugs and filters, my cards about to melt! I almost forgot the bloody cam belt! It still will not run, my mechanic is on it! He is almost afraid of what’s under the bonnet so I will never buy Peugeot again in my life It’s so temperamental you could call it a wife!

Peugeot Partner Tepee Outdoor 1.6 TD 2009

I have to start by saying that I have previously leased three versions of the Partner Combi and each one got better until the name was changed to Tepee. I am a gardener and carry plants, tools and bags of compost in the back which is easy with upward opening back door and sliding side doors. I referred ot it as the Tardis because I could always carry whatever I wanted. This latest version is more like a car than a working vehicle. The lining on the roof makes all three doors lower and the gap between the folded rear seats and the open side door is almost half the size of the previous models making it difficult to load the front of the load space from the side. Previous models had a useful storage space inside the rear door and above the side doors but these have now been filled in with a lining that makes the interior width much less. All the so called storage spaces on the dashboard and in the doors are much too small and don’t hold anything useful. The space between the front seats is flat and will not hold anything without it rolling off, the optional extra storage box should be standard. The rear seats do not fold vertically like the previous models again reducing the size of the rear load area. The fact that the rear seats can now be removed is no help because as well as a working vehicle I have to transport grandchildren so need to change from one to the other quickly. All in all the designers of this model have got rid of all the useful features for a working person like me and tried to make it more like a people carrier except they have included some internal roof bars, the use of which remains a mystery. I am surprised at the French doing this as they have a tradition of carrying livestock and goods in the back of normal cars. Finally, and it could just be my vehicle, there is an irritating knock which Peugeot say is my shock absorbers which they are about to replace. Could this be a call-in problem?

Peugeot 308 1.6 vts 120 SE 2009

I took charge of the car in January 2009 and I have now done 12,500 miles in it without any problems at all. The car is well finished, comfortable to drive and the 1.6ltr petrol engine performs very well and has enconomy to boot (ave 43 mpg). Nice brisk acceleration around town and cruises well on the motorway.

Peugeot 407 2003

Good all-round estate car. Very comfortable. Could do with more power.

Peugeot Expert 2008

A thoroughly appalling machine. Bump and torque steers. Power is unpredictable, it appears to have no bottom end torque at all. ABS is unpredictable and comes on way too early. Bits fall off, admittedly only small plastic ones, like the electric window switches disappearing into the door! The flywheel failed within a couple of thousand miles of the thing been delivered (if you feel pulsing vibration through the clutch pedal when slightly depressed, that will be it starting to fail). Drivers side sliding door fell off. The bolts at the rear, which hold the stop were loose. Well 2 were, the third was cross threaded. (This can only occur when opening the door though it cant fall off when shut.). Fuel cooler under chassis rail on left hand side has been torn off twice by water, causing a loss of fuel, power and temper. More bits have fallen off. The fuse box is almost totally inaccessible, especially when you need to change a fuse at night. The left indicators sometimes do not work. The radio has something called ’economy mode’ .This makes you run the engine every five minutes if you want to listen to the radio whilst having lunch. Other than that, it’s noisy and uncomfortable. Oh, the windscreen wipers work well. Did I mention, bits keep falling off?

Responses to this review

Must say before I go on the only reason I bought the new shape expert was because I had an old shape expert on a T plate that had done 290k and 210 of them I did with out a single problem! The new one at first, yes it was different, then things started to go wrong. First the parking sensors that seem to have a mind of their own, then the driver’s window that keeps going down by itself. I’ve had it in to the dealers several times and they’re still not right and now with only 35k on the clock and at two years old the fly wheel has gone. Peugeot now want £600 just to look at it then decide whether it’s covered under warranty. 35k AND A NEW FLYWHEEL? PLEASE! I’m an engineer by trade and if I told someone that I’d be out of work in no time. This is my own van so I’m not a boy racer trying to get home yesterday. Just wondering if anyone has had the same problem with the flywheel and what the outcome was? - Craig from Lancashire

Peugeot Expert 1998

Fairly good fuel economy for a van. Easy to drive. Engine noise isn’t too bad. Corners well. The electrics could be better.

Peugeot 107 2007

I would have given this car a five star rating But having spoken to Peugeot’s so called customer care, about a premature failed clutch at only 23,000 mls on a less than 3 year old car still under warranty; their attitude was negative to say the least. The dealer that I purchased the car from wanted to charge me £400 for a diagnostic check to see if it was fair wear and tear, WHAT at 23,000 they must be having a laugh! So if buying from new make sure you haggle for a second & even third clutch to be fitted when required.

Responses to this review

I agree, but what would you say to having a clutch problem without having a clutch? Well, I drive a semi-automatic 107 and the transmission clutch plate has worn out. The Peugeot dealer said that it’s a small car with only 1000cc and that could happen. Surely not with 28.000 km? To renew the old part will cost €66 only on spare parts and I’m not sure how long it would last. What would you do if confronted with such a problem? The funny thing is, that it started whistling some weeks ago and nobody could tell me what it means. The same sound it does when the petrol is low, but a little bit longer. Kind regards - Maria Vosniadis from Greece

Peugeot 206 1.4 HDi 70 Look 2004

This car is bomb proof, I’ve covered over 150000 miles and she goes like the day I got her. I can safely recommend these to first time buyers because it’s cheap to run (Group 4 ins, £35 tax) and it hardly uses any diesel. Fantastic little car.

Peugeot 1007 2007

Bought my 1007 18mth ago. One previous owner from new. I had trouble with the drivers door not staying open. Easily remedied with a spray of W D 40 on return bar at rear bottom of door, no more trouble since.

Peugeot 1007 2006

I bought my Peugeot 1007 about 5 months ago. I have had trouble with the sliding doors when temperature is below 0 degrees, and I will try the tips mentioned in all these helpful reviews. Apart from that, I like it, but when you can’t shut the door in the ice and snow, all the other good features are worthless. Does anybody know if is possible to completely disconnect the electrics, so that the doors are manually operated only? This won’t help many of you, but I could cope with that! Thank you.

Peugeot 207 CC 1.6i 120HP 2007

Okay, why did I give the car a 4 star rating, because in the the summer it’s a veeeeeery cool car. Now it’s January, I have to keep my top on (btw it’s not leaking). BUT.... I was really compelled to give it a three. For one I did buy it second hand with 15000KM on the clock (about 10000 miles), and from day one I had the feeling that it lacked power in the lower RPM range. I drove diesel for years before this one, so I thought that it could be an engine type thing, because from 3000 RPM up it flies. AND NOW COMES MY REAL PROBLEM!!! Yesterday I got the Pollution Error that everyone is talking about. I did checkout some other sites in Dutch, and they say it’s just a thing when you drive only short distances, and that you have to drive the pollution out by driving a very long distance and back. Well, the pollution error came right after I had driven 270KM (135KM to and fro), I shut down my car for 5 minutes, switched it on again, and there it was. I called my dealer, because my car is still on warranty, and the dealer said "walk it off. If it’s still there after a week we’ll make an appointment", but if I hear y’all complaining like this.... I DON’T WANNA DIE!!! WHEN I’M DRIVING 150 KM/h (~100MPH) !!!!!!!!

Peugeot Expert Tepee e7 2005

This taxi almost put me out of business last year. Don’t buy one.

Responses to this review

I totaly agree with you, I have a ef taxi 2.0 hdi and my engine seized on the 27/01/10 and nobody will honour the warranty, Peugeot or Allied, so I’m left with a knackered motor and no money coming in so I will probably soon be out the game - Maxwell Waxman from Lanarkshire

Now on my seventh flywheel (98000MLS) no one at Allied or Peugoet could give a S**T! Very frustrating now having to take my finance company to the ombusman to try and get rid of this vehicle before warranty runs out! -  ANNOYED CABBY from Mid-Lothian (Edinburghshire)

Peugeot 107 2008

It leaks - door seals. Leave it out in the rain and the rear footwells fill with water. Twice been repaired by dealer, but still leaking. The same problem as with it’s twin, the Toyota Aygo, and now apparently a well recognised but unpublicised problem.

Responses to this review

I am having the same problem, bought it end of November and it’s been back three times. I am waiting for a part to cure it although I’m not quite sure what it is, the after sales is rubbish and I bought from main dealer - Maxine from Lancashire

Car leaks like anything! Mine is less than a year old and have noticed that when it rains water seems to seep through the vent in the boot where the lock mechanism is. Have had the button replaced but still no joy, going in again shortly. Personally I think it is ridiculous. I’m seriously considering appealling to get another car if it is not sorted. One other thing the amount of rust forming on the underside of the car is crazy; exhaust is nearly completely caked in it! I think it isn’t worth the money. Quality of materials is very cheap, I noticed Aygo has same rust issues! Check out the cheap bit of electrical tape wrapped around the drivers seat belt socket - poor poor poor! Two positives - Great handling in snow, cheap as chips to run! - A Smith from England

Peugeot 207 CC 2008

Having real problems with an anti-pollution faulty, engine cutting out. Very dangerous when in traffic. Been back to dealer 3 times unable to find any fault!! Very unhappy!!!!

Peugeot 107 petrol manual 2009

This car was bought new has 5.5k miles on the clock. It is driven by my elderly father. I had cause to move the car on wednesday 13th. Jan and noticed that the clutch pedal was coming up from the floorboard a long way before engaging; indicating wear. The clutch was not, however, slipping when driving. later that evening the clutch assembly disintegrated without warning, taking out the gear box casing and causing damage estimated at £4000.00! I am currently in discussion with Peugeot who, initially, tried to blame the failure on wear and tear. I have personally fitted many clutches and usually the symptom of clutch wear is a slipping clutch. Has any body heard of any other problems with this model? Thanks.

Responses to this review

I bought my car, a second hand 107. On test driving it I noticed the clutch was very high before engaging, the dealer firstly point blank would not replace it so I said i wouldn’t buy it. He then put it into Peugeot who said the clutch needed replacing at 6000 miles on the clock, terrible! Anyway, this was done, at 23000 miles the clutch is back at the top, suppose it wont be long before it needs replacing. Also I hope no one has a headlight go on the side of the road as the bumper needs to be removed to replace the bulb, crazy stupid design, so if you get stopped by the police for no headlamp you will not be able to change it at the side of the road. Love the car but it has a few technical issues - Steve from Norfolk

Peugeot 207 1.6 HDi GT 110 FAP 2006

Personally, I would recommend the 207 to anybody. Yes the Hondas and Toyotas are probably far more reliable but they are also as dreary and as boring as hell to look at, drive and sit in. My 207 will be 4 years old this July and I have had next to no problems, Yes there are little niggles that would drive you mad like the glove box is microscopic and sat nav systme remembers routes from months ago. Also the drop link arms have been replaced a few times due to the 8 ramps upto my housing estate. But this isnt enough to stop me thinking about buying the lastest model. Lastly the engine is as sweet as a nut even though i have covered over 120,000 Miles and all I have had to do is service it at its correct intervals and that’s it, perfect.

I have had my Peugeot 206 cc for nearly 5 years from brand new and have only had one problem with driver side door/window. However, since the fault was identified things have been fine.

Peugeot Expert Tepee Taxi e7 2008

I’m using mine as a taxi.I have 21 years experience of driving taxis and have driven a million miles plus in my lifetime and I’m more than qualified to say this taxi is not the correct tool for the job. It’s like walking into B&Q and explaining to the sales person the task you need to do and instead of walking out with a hammer the guy sells you a saw! It’s not tough enough. I’m at 90000 miles now and the problems have moved on from" trivial" stuff like doors, brakes, anti roll bars, side steps, clutches, fly wheels, etc., to engine problems. I had a tx1 taxi which I put 450000 miles on. I would have to buy 3 e7s to do the same. The tx was built in 1997 the e7 in 08, you would have thought technology may have moved on? Do not buy this car. Although warranties look good they aren’t always what they seem, even in black and white! 80% of my passengers have trouble even shutting the door. very tiresome on a 12 hour shift! Also I have to travel from Edinburgh to Glasgow everytime there is a problem and wander round there 8 hours till fixed, just a nightmare!!

Depollution warning light just come on, looks like im in for fun. 207 GTI 18,000 miles, only had since March 08. Can anyone advise me?

Responses to this review
57 model 16000 miles. Exact same problem - environment light coming on. New full engine fitted by garage. No explanation yet given by garage for original problem. The car was driven for 30 miles and the environment light came back on, loss of power. The car is now back in garage. The garage thinks it might be a computer problem. The garage has also refused to give new warranty on the new engine - Peter Moore from England

Peugeot 207 207CC 2007

Car bought in 2007 and has done 16000 miles. Two weeks ago the anti pollution light came on, engine very rough and stalling . Garage said ok to drive(!). Not driven ’til booked into garage. Top half of engine stripped down, fault not found, complete engine strip down revealed loose pistons!!! Peugeot technical dept have agreed to a new engine, now waiting for confirmation from Peugeot head office. So if your anti-pollution light comes on beware!! Anyone else had this problem?

Responses to this review

I think I may have a similar problem. My antipollution light came on. Engine also lost power, was unable to overtake and slowed regularly all way home. The garage cleared the car computer and told me it was OK to drive and no faults were found. I got car delivered back and drove less than a mile before car cut out and stopped dead in traffic whilst driving along. It is in the garage now and I have been told the car computer is dead?? I was asked to pay for part but reminded garage that car less than 3 years old. I am now waiting. The car has been serviced as instructed and is very good. This is all very sudden and am concerned I may have the same problem - Marianne North from England

Peugeot 3008 1.6 HDi 110 FAP Sport 2009

Fantastic car!! Great drive very comfortable, not so great looking but that was not enough to stop me buying it. I would recommend it to anyone.

Peugeot 207 GT 2008

In the last 14 years I have bought 5 small Peugeots and they just get better and better!! My last one was a 206 XSi which I though would be hard to beat but my 207 GT has just pipped it. I love all this extra technology that even more expensive cars don’t have. Apart from servicing and tyres, non of my Peugeot babies have been in the garage for any faults. I do an average 25K miles per annum so it’s not because I don’t drive them, nor do I believe I’m just lucky. I’ll keep buying mini Peugeots until I get a bad one. Can’t recommend them enough!!

Peugeot 407 2004

Hi, Have just bought my 54 reg 407 hdi derv last week with 47000 miles, very pleasd with drive ,looks great but having read the reviews watch this space.

Peugeot 307 CC 2007

I have generally been very happy with this car. Bought brand new. However since the beginning of December when the weather has been chilly over night, when I open the door the window does not drop and therefore I am unable to shut the door again!. I am having to leave the car running for as much as half an hour before I can get the electrics to work to drop the window and allow me to actually shut the door. As you can imagine, this is really beginning to hack me off! I also think that the servicing cost are high for these, especially as they don’t even check over the roof mechanism (as they say don’t really experience any problems in this area, I know some of you disagree!). My local garage were also quite rude to me about the fact that I was 4 months late servicing my car, despite the fact that I’d only done 7,000 miles. Happy to keep the car as enjoy driving it and love the versatillity of the hard roof, but when the time comes to change, probably won’t buy another.

Responses to this review

I would highly recommend getting a cover just for the top to cover the windows, when you place on car make sure one side covers the door handle, this then prevents the system from freezing. Also if you haven’t got a cover, just de-ice the window as normal, then get some warm water and pour this just on the door and this is normally enough to get the mechanism moving again. Hope this helps - Michelle from Cheshire

Peugeot 107 2008

I purchased my 107 in june last year and have had no trouble, there is only one thing that isn’t great; when you open the boot everything on the roof or window falls in. Apart from that the car is nippy, good on petrol and reliable.

Peugeot 207 2008

I have no worries with my car except lately the temperature gauge is always down apart from when I am standing in a signal or driving slowly before it indicates always near the 90C temp. Another issue, lately the indicator of depollution system failure and the engine indicator light up. If I stop the car for 10 minutes and restart the engine it disappears, is it a problem??

Peugeot 307 SW diesel 2003

Got this car about 6 weeks ago, wish I never got it. Hard to start in morning but fine the rest of the day. ABS light came on, one of the sensors has gone, then the left electric door window opens when it wants to, mostly the second time I start the car up. The indictators work but when you turn the corner they indicate the other way and you need to turn them off, the horn works, just, and sometimes not at all and to round it all off I think I need a new electric window driver side panel to control the windows, it doesn’t work like it should. The passager side window goes down but not back up, unless you use the panel on the passager side and it has low MPG for a diesel, Grrrr. I expect cars get faults, but not this many. The worse car ever. I wouldnt mind, I like the look of the car, that’s why I got it. Now I’d get a Ford or something that you know is going to work.

Peugeot Boxer h2l3 2007

I have a Boxer van 2.2 hdi 07, had new engine fitted at 22 thousand miles, new clutch, fly wheel starter, new exhaust. Because it was filled with carbon it vibrates nearly to destruction at low revs but only intermitently, if I turn off when driving to reset ECU it’s fine. Sometimes its fine when cold and it gives a warning when the rev counter starts to fluctuate, then it dies and vibrates and uses twice the amount of fuel. It’s yours for £13000 if you want it? £8000 on new engine, great conversion picks available, nowt but probs. Three months warantee left, can I give this thing back and get my money back or replace it with a newer one? I’ve fitted it out to the tune of £8000.00 grand motorhome wise, how am I fixed? It’s not fit for purpose, it won’t reverse without jumping - mike 07729700074

Peugeot 407 SW 2004

I have had few regrets in my life but buying this vehicle by far, is the biggest!! I can only take a little comfort to see I am not alone!! (sorry), My beautiful head turning Pug, conceals a host of problems steming from depollution error codes to early clutch replacement. WARNING!!! Please turn away from the gaze of its beauty or you too will turn to stone!

Peugeot Expert Tepee XS LWB 2008

Absolute rubbish. Poor MPG, build is a joke and the car has been in three times for knocking noises which has now resulted in a replacement of the anti roll bar, bushes, links, amongst other items. Also, the rear light has been replaced due to water seepage as well as door traps on 30k... This car was not built for a taxi and will be complaining to cab direct for selling us a poor car with practically no aftercare nor service. All E7 owners shoudl get togther and complain and as far as cab direct are concerned, I will never buy another car from them again.

Peugeot 307 CC 2007

I’ve had the 206 CC but the 307 CC is by far superior. I had a few warning lights about the airbag but theis was just a clip under the seat that needed clipping back in, though the garage would probably take 50 smackers to do so. Depollution light came on and the car was fitted with a new canister of some sort, price was £150..the light came on again and again the next day so the garage fitted a new coil, which my a/c warranty covered. Overall I’m very happy with the Western Road, Kilmarnock branch.

Peugeot 306 1999

Peugeot 306 HDI’s are the worst car money can buy. I’ve had one for 4 months and it gave me nothing but trouble. I’ve spent 2000 quid repairing it and it still isn’t working. Don’t buy one.

Responses to this review

Hi, I have to totally disagree with you because I bought my 2001 306 2.0 HDi Sport in 2007 as my first car and 3 years on I have had absolutely no trouble at all with it. The engine had 98000 Miles on it and now I have over 145000 Miles on it and it has been ultra reliable and efficient. It’s a lovely car to drive and its really grippy on a twisty B road. Its such a good car my grandfather uses it more than his 09 VW Golf GT TDi Sport because he reckons its a far more comfortable car to drive and sit in, He also thinks it’s quicker off the mark than his 140hp GT TDi Golf. I love my 306 and Peugeot should of never quit making them because if they didn’t it would be no match for all the crap like Ford Focus - Kevin Aherne from Cambridgeshire

Peugeot 308 308sHDI 90 5DR 08 2008

GOOD STUFF: Cheap Tax, 62MPG, Big inside. That’s it.. Yep thats it, I can’t think of any thing else. The BAD STUFF: Had new F/R Discs 9,000ml,. Two engine oil leaks, Six trips to Bristol Street Motors in Worksop to have a fuel leak sorted - ended up having new tank. It had new mirror switch and yes it does tend to pull to left, I sorted this with a trip to Kwikfit and asking them to set the track spot on as if you have it set to within the tolerance it pulls. The head lights are made this way or so Peugeot say. When you use full beam and there is damp in the air i.e Mist Fog Spray. You have pillars of light shining to the heavens and you must try and look around them in order to see ahead. The ride is so hard I should invest in a gum shield. Loads of road noise from rear of car. Oh yes the intermittent wipers are auto, so the faster you go so do the wipers. only more often than not you dont need them to speed up as it is only road spray. You end up doing them your self as and when you need to give the screen the odd wipe. 9/10 times this makes the intermittent setting of no use. The cost of a service that should include an engine air filter is high due to them having to drop the engine to even get to the filter. Making it hard to find some else to do the service if you should ever wish. The list goes on..

Peugeot 107 5 door Urban 2007

The one problem I have is when it is or has been raining and you open the rear hatch window, the rainwater pours straight into the boot. I don’t know what the solution is except wipe all the water off before opening. Tedious!

Peugeot 307 HDI 2003

I have had my Peugeot for about three months, and I have already had to repair the horn, front passenger window switch and the indicator stalk. It seems to be all electrical stuff that goes wrong and maybe I need to be a bit more gentle with these things. As far as driving goes, it it a great car to drive. Sticks to the road beautifully and performs in all situations. I can change down a gear and put my foot down and she moves. Im pretty happy with her so far, but hope there is no more electrical ’issues’ with her. I think the fuel efficiency is great for a car of this size and stature.

Responses to this review

I had to get the horn replaced in my old 2002 307 HDi Rapier. My local Peugeot delealership told me it was something to do with a matrix, whatever that is? Also expect trouble from the electronic boot switch/ handle, it gave me lots of trouble and so did the automatic wipers and lights. The lights would switch themselves off when I was driving in the dark sometimes. Good luck - Thomas from County Armagh

Peugeot Boxer 2.0 diesel Compass 2003

My Compass motorhome has completed 20K with no problems. I was going to replace it and buy a new Adria twin motorhome based on the new Fiat Ducato van. I had a test drive in the Adria, and was aware of potential gearbox issue. The salesman stated the gearbox problem had been sorted! When I tried to reverse up a not very steep hill there was a pronounced vibration from the gearbox. I have now decided to keep the old model Peugeot (2.0 diesel) 2003 . Thanks to other drivers reviews I have been warned!

Peugeot Expert L1 - H1 2008

Purchased new on a 08 plate, it already has had two new clutches and only has 36000 miles on it. It keeps shuddering and Peugeot can’t find the fault!

Peugeot 306 2.0 HDi 90 Meridian 2000

Fantastic car!! Until I crashed it 9 months ago. It never gave me any trouble apart from the airbag warning light which kept coming on!. I serviced it at its correct intervals and gave it a bit a bit of tlc and that was it, 100%. Then one month later I bought a late 2006 307 1.6 110 HDi Se ( thinking it would be rubbish due to all the bad reports i have heard and read) but it is fantastic, no problems at all. As i say you just need to take care of a Peugeot and give it some TLC. Lastly if you are thinking of a 306 buy the HDI engine, its ultra reliable, quick, smooth and economical.

Peugeot 407 2005

The Worst car ever. I’ve had to replace 2 x clutch, 2 x dual mass fly wheels and the ABS block.

Peugeot 308 Verve 2009

I read so many conflicting reports I was doubtful about buying it. However, I am delighted. It is a comfortable, quiet, economical workhorse and a delight to drive. I have owned many cars, Mercedes, Lancias, Fords, BMWs, Fiats, Renaults, Toyotas, Nissans, Opels, Volkswagens and there isn’t such a thing as a perfect car, its all about compromise. As a compromise the Peugeot 308 is an excellent all rounder. If I had a criticism it is price, because the Euro is so strong the price in sterling is rather high but that is the fault of our Government not the car.

Peugeot 207 2008

I have owned this car for 1 year with no problems ’til now. It has been in my local garage three times for wheel bearing noise, twice for steering problems and twice for pulling away problems. I have been told thay sorted it, b****ocks did they. They have no respect and they are full of s**t . I will now be seeking legal advice, see how they like it . DONT BUY A PEUGEOT IN READING! I WONT BE AGAIN THEY SUCK!

Peugeot 308 SW 2008

I have test driven the 308 SW today. The vehicle was pulling to the left and I was told that it needed to go through the workshops and that it would be sorted then, however, after reading the comments here and on the Peugot owners forum which mirrored those here I think I will stay with my Renault Senic which does not pull to the left and is more comfortable.

Peugeot Expert Tepee E7 2009

Well what can you say? 19,800 miles and already a new clutch and flywheel. It’s now going in for a new anti-roll bar and a banging noise from the back. I think that all the peope who bought this vehicle need to get together and go to Peugeot together as going it alone seems to get you nowhere!!

Peugeot Expert Tepee Eurobus 2007

I’ve had numerous problems with this vehicle since buying it from cab direct, who are happy to make repairs under the original warranty but not so keen when you’re looking for repairs to be done under the extented warranty (not worth taking out, a waste of time). I’ve just had the starter motor replaced 2 weeks after having the clutch and flywheel done, not a coincidence. I’m stuck with it and will just have to wait on the next fault.

Peugeot 1007 1.4 8v sport 2-tronic 2005

Hi, I bought my car just over a month ago because I liked its looks and it was cheap as it was an ex-company car with believe it or not 89,000 miles on the clock. I got a 1 year warranty with it and got the price down to £2,400 so took it. So far I have not really had any door problems but the tensioner for the alternater belt went costing £90 and 2 weeks ago a gearbox failure came up on the display. On investigation at my garage the clutch was found to be broke into pieces. I was really p*ssed off as the warranty company said it was due to wear. I paid £300 to replace the clutch. I thought the problems were over but yesterday whilst driving home the gearbox failure warning came on again and the car would not move for a minute or so, but then started to work again. Has anyone experienced these problems before and do you know the cause?

Responses to this review
I have had problems with my 20k warranty. Clutch went at 15000miles and they refused to let me have it on warranty as they felt it was due to wear and tear and it cost over £500 to repair.. I think the warranty is a complete farce. I would have to either been pulling something or have rode the clutch for the past 15000 miles...totally inconcievable. However, I am taking it further which should open the flood gates!! - Audrey Pullan from Cheshire

Peugeot Expert Tepee E7 longwheel base taxi 2007

Mine was purchased as a ex demo vehicle in Oct 2008, at 17000 miles. I’ve just reached 40k and the dual mass flywheel has crumbled. Luckily it’s still under warranty but not the clutch, which they said was two thirds worn. They could have put the clutch back in but it would probably needed replacing as its worn. The clutch cost me just under 300.00 - disgusting, as I have 2 other older eurotaxis coming up to 250,000 and I have only just replaced the clutches. I’ve had problems with the roll bars, like everyone else it seems, and I am feeling now that I have bought a heap of rubbish. I am going to try and get my cash back for the clutch and think I should contact watchdog to investigate the problem as looking at this it seems to be a fault by Peugeot; they are not stepping up to the mark in recalling these faults. They know they are faulty as apparently they have a conversion kit for 300.00 to dump the dual mass flywheel. I need to investigate more. If you know of this problem, if you got anywhere with Peugeot or would support me on contacting watchdog then contact me on email at GOLDINGFEW34DART@AOL.COM. Thank you.

I would be happy to support you with regards watchdog these vehicle are not fit for purpose and attitude of dealers and warranty cover poor to say the least - Stuart Johnston from Lanarkshire

We are also noticing the clutch judder and doubt we will get any joy from the stealers - M from England

If you need support for watchdog etc., then i will back you. I did contact Peugeot head office and they politely advised me that they cannot ensure that the car won’t go wrong in the warranty period. I listed the problems I had and also pointed them here due to the amount of serious faults that were present. I have to say though, my dealer has been great, I can’t fault them to be honest, it’s just the car is crap - Peter Granville from Durham

Well... it’s same story here. I have had about £3500 worth of faults on my car and Peugeot aren’t interested. It is still under warranty. I purchased it from new from cab direct it’s only done 82000km. The turbo is leaking oil, egr valve etc... also, the antirollbar and both ball joints need replacing. They replaced intercooler which was leaking oil but not turbo about 3 months ago now I am seeking legal advice - Perwiz Yousef from Yorkshire

Peugeot 307 CC 2008

A nice looking car, but I’m having problems with the gearbox, which you can accidently go into reverse when driving at speed, which i did it yesterday at 60 miles per hour in third gear. The went into reverse gear without any problem and if I had not heard the parking sensor I would have let the clutch out. There is also a problem with water in the spare wheel well, which needs to be kept an eye on and a bit of dead spot occasionally when acelerating, other than that seems like a decent car.

My girlfriend purchased a Peugeot 407 SW new in 2005. It has been a wonderful car and we have loved it, but for one small thing. We seem to blow headlight bulbs about every 6 - 12 months. In Australia, these are not a cheap item and due to their position and fittings, quiet difficult to replace. I am wondering if anyone else has had this problem and can shed some light on possible causes of the problem and especially how to fix it. I’m going broke keeping the headlights on!!!

Peugeot 407 SW SV 136 Bhp 2005

This is the worst car I have ever bought. Everything has gone wrong; the Dual Mass Flywheel has gone twice and the clutch 3 times as a result. Also the Turbo twice, EGR Valves SIX times then an Engine rebuild due to a Sticking Valve and now the engine goes into ’Regeneration" every 12 hours !!!! Everything costs the earth to replace and no one wants to touch it as it has an engine management system that only the main dealers seem to have all the software for. A wonderful vehicle to drive, but I would STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS. My repair bills over the past 4 years come to £12,000+ because the Warranty People decided that the vehicle had been used in "ARDUOUS" driving conditions and therefore was Out of Cover?

Water had got into the spare wheel well (from all the rain I guess) set off all the sensors and the car responded like it had been in a crash rolling setting all the safety devices..yes everyone! I have been left with injuries and a bill running into thousands! I have contacted peugot(waste of space) feel this should be a safety recall as it is a design fault and like most I have had this car in the garage more times than I have fingers! Basically guys keep an eye out in the heavy rain for water in your spare wheel well [how many people check this before they drive off] If you have experienced this problem please help I need all the support I can if I am going to get anywhere with Peugot Should you work for a car reporting agency (Jeremy Carkson would be fantastic) please get intouch because media attention is what us guys need. Thank you.

Responses to this review

We’ve have recently had precisely the same problem. The vehicle simply wouldn’t start so took it to Peugeot, who intially stated that water had collected in the rear electric area and was causing short circuits. They dried the area and fitted a new drainage fitting (£500), did the test drive, and the seat belt tensioners went off. They are now stating that the seat belt tensioners, airbag and rollover ECU’s need replacing, as potentially they could all activate whilst driving. They have quoted an additional £1500. We are considering what to do next as it seems to be a relatively common design fault. Any ideas? - James Lees from England

Peugeot 307 CC 2.00 hDI 2008

I’ve had this car for about six months now and have experienced no problems what so ever. I bought it second hand with 19000Kms on the clock and have so far put 6000 kms on it! I love driving it with the roof up or down and it has left my other cars sitting on the drive! I would recommend this car 100%. Only downside I have is that there are a few squeaks from time to time as the roof settles back in. Buy one for the fun of it!

Peugeot 4007 2009

Does anyone find the changing from first to second gear a bit hard? My 4007 has a crunching of gears and it is very hard to select gears when cold. I thought this was my fault having driven autos for so many years.

Peugeot 207 2009

No, I have NOT bought a 207 and after reading all of the DREADFUL reviews I am SO glad that I have hung on to my nice simple, but reliable, purchased new, 1988 Peugeot 205 GRD Diesel! If and when I do move on to something new, it will NOT be a Peugeot 207.

Peugeot 207 CC Verve 2009

Currently annoyed because the engine kept cutting out about 10-15 times in the first 3 weeks, usually when the engine is coldish, and always when the clutch is depressed on approach to a junction or traffic lights. Had its 1-month service. Told the Peugeot garage guys at the dealership. They couldn’t replicate the fault. Said they reset the software. However, it’s happening again two days later!! Apart from it being a mild inconvenience and embarrassing because it looks like I’m stalling all the time, twice it’s been downright dangerous as I’ve switched from 4th gear to second to join a road (left turn) but because the engine cut out, the powersteering disappeared and locked, as did the break, so I was unable to change course or speed and proceeded to drift powerlessly into a busy road........ Not good. Thank god no one crashed into the side of me at 60mph!! As a precaution now, i’m having to check the battery light EVERY TIME I want to change gear on approach to a roundabout/junction because I can’t risk pulling out in front of someone and the engine cutting out!!! Annoyed!!!! The garage guys just said "Customer to moniter" the situation. I’m now logging every time this happens and the exact circumstances. Will be requesting a new car if this is still happening in a month. :(

Responses to this review

I too am having this problem.... bought a brand new 207 Verve at the end of October 2009 and it has stalled on me probably about 4 times, always at night when I’m pulling onto my driveway. The worrying thing is the lights go out and all power goes and if this was to happen on a main road it could potentially be fatal! At first I thought it was my driving but on looking on the internet it seems that all Peugeots are having this problem...scary! I have just called Peugeot who say that it could be that I was in the wrong gear i.e. in 2nd and as it’s all computerised the car might not have liked this gear...hhhhmmmm going to keep an eye on the situation, note everytime this happens and what gear I’m in and then take it into the garage to be looked at. Not happy! - Jo from Cambridgeshire

Peugeot 1007 2005

I bought the car from Arnorld Clark and as soon as I drove it away I was having problems with the passenger door opening and closing. It would be parked in the street and the door would open even when I locked it. But the worst problem is when I was driving and stopped at traffic lights; the left door opened of its own accord even though the car was locked. Its been a nightmare.

Peugeot 307 CC 2009

I have just bought this car today and so far so good. Took it for a drive and found the car responsive, eye catching and comfortible. Very nippy off the mark, but again eary days yet. Keep watching - Scott Kerr from Lincolnshire

Peugeot 207 CC 1.6 HDI 110 GT 2008

I love my 207 CC, Its a great car and I have had NO trouble with it. Money well spent.

Peugeot 308 2007

I Purchased this vehicle with 4,000 miles on the clock and have had nothing but problems with the drivers window, locking mechanism etc. It is now back at the dealership for the 9th time in four months. Had new BSI (main brain) now having new rubber on window, new lifting mechanism. Any idea’s as the main dealership is running out of idea’s. Peugueot at Coventry are now also involved with this case

Peugeot Boxer LWB 2009

Any one had and problems with the gear lever rocking in sixth gear? When travelling at any speed in sixth gear and I quickly lift my foot off the accelerator the gear lever rocks forwards with a clunk, but does not jump gear. This will continue up the road for as long as I continue to do as before. Anyone out there have any idea of what can be the cause as the local Peugeot dealer says there is nothing wrong and won’t investigate as the vehicle does not jump or clear the gear. Thanks in advance.

Colin, good evening. I read your review of the Boxer van and wondered which engine you have in your van. I am about to order a L3H" 157ps - 3.0l Diesel. This model also has 6 gears. What has been the outcome of your equiry to the public at large regarding this matter? Thanks in advance - George Leighton from Cheshire

Peugeot 207 CC 2007

You can get your money back your 207CC if you can prove that you have given the dealer ’reasonable chance to rectify the problem’. I did this, got back every penny that I paid for the car 7 months previously. I have since gone back to VW and never looked back! But beware! It’s not easy and you will have a fight on your hands...

Peugeot 4007 2007

Have just been told, after 27,000 miles, that it needs a new clutch! I am shocked! I have never needed a new clutch on any other our cars over the years. Is there a problem with the 4007? I am in discussion with Peugeot over this and have heard from another source that an 08 plate 4007 is also needing a new clutch!

Peugeot 307 CC 2004

This is the worst car that I have ever had. Everything has gone wrong with this car, the last being the electronic power steering pump. I am not really sure what to do unless I spend £700 at the Peugeot garage on a new one. I’ve just ordered a referb from a garage. Does anyone know if this will work?

Peugeot Partner Combi Totem 2005

A quite superb and versatile vehicle. I previously had a small, 4x4 jeep which I chose because of where we live - our difficult access, rough roads and winter snow (also my love of outdoor activities in remote places). The Partner, which I purchased from a small local outlet in 2007, with just under 9,000 miles on the clock, matches and indeed surpasses my previous vehicle in terms of performance and capability in some of the aforementioned areas. On the road, she affords the performance and handling of a large road car... no roll on bends and a tidy, but sensible turn of speed. I feel safely cocooned in her and my many passengers have remarked similarly. I no longer suffer unwanted aches and pains on my journeys to Brunton Park, Carlisle. Even longer journeys have been similarly untroubled. The accommodation is spacious, the seating is comfortable and there are more features and add-ons than I really require. The load-carrying capacity is mightily impressive and very rarely have I had to tilt the rear seats forward and only then, due to unusually bulky loads. I can load a mass of tackle and fishing gear in the back and long beach rods just disappear into the cabin, without becoming obtrusive. Image?.. well, as the reviewer from Renfrewshire so aptly put it, I equally couldn’t care less about what other people think. In fact, most people have remarked at what a surprisingly good vehicle this is, having experienced what she has to offer. I now wish I’d had one years ago and I would have by now pocketed an impressive sum previously spent on repairs and breakdowns.

Peugeot Expert new shape!! 2007

I’m a courier and I bought one of these vans new for my business because I needed something reliable!! HOW WRONG I WAS!!!! It’s spent days in the garage for recalls and egr valves and computer updates. At one point it was off the road for six weeks (AND PEUGEOT DONT HAVE TO LET YOU BORROW ANOTHER VAN!!) Although I begged and pleaded and they did lend me a partner van!!... and the fact that over the two year period I had the damn thing I got to know all the people in the dealers on first name terms!.. Like someone else said, it’s got more rust on the engine block than an old sixties car... if you open the bonnet the next time it rains just look at all the water pouring over the engine!!!!!.... the cause for this was the windscreen scuttle and they replaced this twice... still no good! I would be here all day if imade a list of what went wrong on it!! And I did look after it and it wasn’t at any stage thrashed! Turned up one night at the dealers only to be told that the van they were going to lend me while they carried out the work had been sold!! No apology or even a phone call to tell me so I could arrange something else! NEVER NEVER AGAIN... I have had various vans for twenty years but this is the worst by far!!!

Peugeot Boxer 2001

I have no words how to explain how c**p this van is. I had it 5 months and I’m about to bin it. DO NOT BUY THIS VAN, WASTE OF TIME.

Peugeot 207 1.4 HDi S 2007

Very disappointed with poor reliability of this car. I have had two previous Peugeot’s with absolutely no problems. Not this one sadly, problems aggravated by unacceptably poor service from dealership. Four separate visits to cure rainwater leak to front driver side footwell. Then three further visits to mend oil leak. During the most recent visit they managed to damage the airfilter housing, causing it to be seated incorrectly- the resulting vibrations caused the electrical loom to break, which resulted in the car breaking down whilst on holiday in France!!!! Towed to Peugeot dealership in Brighton who wouldn’t honour the warranty - they didn’t believe me when I told them a Peugeot dealer had done the last repair, such was the poor standard of workmanship! I’ll be getting rid of this car before the warranty expires, never to touch a Peugeot again!

Responses to this review

Hi, can you tell me how the problem with the rain water in the drivers footwell was resolved? I have the same issue and every time I take the car into the Peugeot garage they tell me there is no fault - Elise from Cardiff

Hi Glen, been having same issues with with a dealership and was wondering which dealership you were having these problems with??? Thanks in advance. My e-mail is philgrist1981@msn.com - Phil Grist from Clackmannanshire

Hi, I do not understand why everyone complains about Peugeot dealerships. I have bought several Peugeot of both of my local Peugeot dealers in Armagh and Portadown and I cannot fault them at all. They are exceptionally helpful and would go 2 any length 2 make sure the customer gets what they deserve. Also they have clean modern up to date showrooms (here in Northern Ireland anyway) and are not in your face looking a sale. I cannot complain about them and they are quite cheap to get a service done and you always get a courtesy car, Also they always washed and valeted my cars when they were in for a service. 5 Stars. My dealerships are Howard Abraham Peugeot, Portadown and Roadside Motors Peugeot, Armagh - Gary from County Armagh

Peugeot 207 2007

I got my 207 in March 07. Since then I’ve had problems with an anti-pollution system fault; the front seats have worked loose; I’ve needed new pads and discs plus a new exhaust system and 2 alternators. The hazzard lights come when I go over a bump.

Peugeot 807 2004

One of the best MPVs on the market in the used MPV category. Very spacious and very quiet and responsive in the 2.2 HDI executive. With sliding doors and with 7 seats it provides a lot of space: 7 actual adult spaces and not 5 plus 2 children spaces in the rear like in a lot of MPVs. Have you ever tried to remove the seats to see what massive space you have - unbelievable. Only areas of trouble which I have had is a problem with air pollution fault, and wheel sensors. Also seat retraction is suspect to faults especially with the cable. Would purchase another one.

Peugeot Expert Tepee 2008

08 plate Expert, taxi 43,000 miles and it’s had 2 new clutches, new front anti roll bar, new front seat (worn out from getting in and out of cab all day). But I found cab direct very good to deal with and so far my main dealer has been good as well. I still like the cab BUT PEUGEOT NEED TO PULL THERE ACT TOGETHER AND SORT OUT THE CLUTCH. And cab direct should be telling people thay will need to replace the clutch very 20,000miles. It’s being sold, unfit for purpose.

Peugeot Boxer 2003

During three years of motoring with a Boxer van, 45,000 original miles on the clock, the brake pipe coroded (under a rubber fixing clamp) resulting in huge loss of fluid and a near fatal disaster, the handbrake was always hopeless and when checked the cable had corroded and hadn’t been working properly for a couple of years by the look of it. The clutch cable broke away at the point it connects to the foot pedal and was mended by us with a "D" link put through a newly drilled hole (now a better connection than orginal pathetic connection). The anti-theft starter thingy on the ignition barrel packed up and had to be taken out so that the van would start, the judder in reverse gear is quite alarming, any sort of weight in the back slows the vehicle to a trot, the scrunching noises from the suspension makes you think your sailing in a 18th century man-o-war on the high seas in a force eight gale, the side door runners have worn, the side door stop has broken, the earth strap corroded due to water ingress dripping on the connecter to the gearbox, bad water ingress onto the battery, the flimsy back door has broken away from the hinges, the driver door hinges make such a noise each time the door opens that peaple within a hundred yard radius turn to check out the noise, premature rust has started on the body underside, the wheels rims dont seem to connect to the tyres correctly alowing slow loss of air and...Why go on, just keep away from them.

Peugeot 1007 2005

Because I am disabled I chose the 2007. Peugeot owned the car for the first 18 months (did 10,500 miles) and I have owned it since - 2 years 6 months (have done 8,500 miles). I have had many problems with the doors but once it was out of its warranty period a year ago I have waited for each incident and let it go as it usually rights itself overnight. However, I now have a more serious problem. The screen in the car shows "ABS/ESP not functioning". I took it to the local dealer where I bought the car and was told it was a fauly ABS pump and would cost £1,150. I picked myself up from the floor and said I did not think this was fair as the car had only done 19,000 miles and they said they would contact Peugeot who said they could not help as the problem "did not fit their criteria". As the car was almost 4 years old the MOT was due so I had the work done and had to pay up front, this was their rule I was told. I fortunately paid on my credit card. I went to collect the car from the garage but the new pump replacement had failed to correct the problem, the screen was still showing the same fault. The service manager said they would have to send for another pump as the new one must be faulty??? I have not had the new pump fitted and the car is 4 years old today. I am paying to have the car examined by an electronics expert as I have been told by several independant mechanics that they do not think that the fault can have been the pump in the first place and I have paid £1500 for a different fault that could be put right much more cheaply. Apart from its annoying faults I like the car but I dont think I can afford it. I had Hyundai’s previously and kept the last one for 6 years; they never ever had a single fault.

Peugeot 1007 2006

I got the 1007 from Hardies at Halbeath, Dunfermline on mobility. When I inquired about the doors the sales man said; OH WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH THE DOORS. So I took his word for it and took it. Well, I only had it a week or so and the doors started working on there own, even when moving.The petrol and speedometer weren’t showing anything... so back it went. In and out it went for months and every time I got it back from Hardies I was assured by the service manager it was OK. One day my 3 year old grand son was climbing in the car and the door started to close; my grandson had his hands on the rail which the door moves on. I had to push the door back or he would have lost his finger. Eventually it came to a point when I got out of the car and the door closed trapping my hand. I went right back to the dealer and told them what had happened and to fix it or keep it. OK... we will fix it: 2 days later I got it back. Its OK now, the mechanic is sure its OK. So off I went happy. It was Mothers’ Day and we went to Colne near Preston to see the kids. When we got there the doors wouldn’t open and after forcing them open they wouldn’t close. That was it. I phoned mobility and now I have taken legal action against the dealer and Peugeot. Mobility insurance have taken the case on. So I would advise anyone with the same problem to contact Mobility insurance and claim your benefit back. Don’t just accept it.

Peugeot 207 1.6 diesel 2007

I purchased a NEW pug 207 1.6 diesel. Having had, between myself and wife, some 13 NEW cars in the last 15 yrs, this is undoubtably the WORST car we have ever owned. In the 1st year (under warranty) it needed the abs sytem sorting at a cost of £1,000 and it’s now in the garage as the n/s driver folding mirror has packed up working, the car has done 11,000 miles in 2 years, and upon inspection, the front discs on both sides are very heavily grooved. The dealer states they are OK, I DON’T AGREE, in my opinion it needs new discs and pads. It’s difficult to get into reverse gear most times - dealer states the car has no syncro on reverse gear, and it’s a well known fault, the warning light keeps coming on warning of pollution/ something or other. STEER clear of this model. It will definitely be going before it’s warranty runs out. FRENCH C**P AT IT’S BEST.

Peugeot 207 CC 2008

I have been experiencing the same problem with my 207. I am just driving along and engine totally cuts out and power steering is lost. VERY DANGEROUS, have just been lucky that no cars have been behind me as would have caused a serious accident. Car has been back to Peugeot approx 5/6 times in 2 weeks and new software has been downloaded, fuel lines changed, fuel filter changed etc etc but still problem persists. After reading numerous posts on various websites about this problem beginning to wonder if Peugeot need to consider a recall before someone is seriously hurt...

Peugeot Boxer 350L 2000

Absolutely impossible to fault, I’ve owned it for 3 years now and it has never put a foot wrong. Needed brakes and NOTHING else. I would trust it anywhere! Almost 200,000 miles on the clock, original engine. Will be very sad the day I have to part with it.

Peugeot 308 1.6 HDi 110 Sport 6spd 2007

I absolutely love my 308; it’s a fantastic motorway cruiser and it’s great craic on the b roads. (I had the mk5 golf 1.9 tdi before and it really peaved me off, it was so boring to drive and the engine sounded like a canal boat and it drove worse than a canal boat). The 308 is a completely different car and the 1.6 hdi is a gem, I’m actually getting 63mpg on the motorways and the quality and build quality is so far ahead of others in this class. I’ve owned this car since 2007 and it’s great; fair enough, I have had a couple of rattles but partly my own fault. I can recommend this car to anybody buying one, forget about the Golf, Focus, Astra, C4 etc... Get one of these!!!

Peugeot 207 1.6 HDi 90 Sport 2008

I have had my 207 HDi Sport 90 for a year and two months now and I have to say it has been a credit to me. I do a lot of motorway miles and have covered over 20000 trouble free miles!!! I can honestly recommend this car to anybody who’s thinking of buying one. I am even getting 65mpg from a 1.6 Diesel and the £35 per year tax is a big bonus!! Peugeot have made a true star, a huge 5/5 from me.

Peugeot 308 Turbo Diesel HDi 1.6 ltr 90bhp 2008

Owned for the last 16 months. Very economical and impressive stylish design. Offers good comfort in the inside and boasts of a number of gadgets that enhance the drivers feeling inside the cabin. One major problem with this car is that the experience behind the steering wheel is an absolute NIGHTMARE. When driving, you have to grip the steering wheel and exhert a lot of strength to maintain the car in a straight trajectory. If the steering wheel is left free for JUST TWO SECONDS the car would IMMEDIATELY LOOSE ITS TRAJECTORY VERY HEAVILY, no matter at what speed or the condition of the road surface. In actual fact, this renders the car, the most UNSAFE and UNSECURE. Peugeot claim that this is not a defect but just a characteristic of the car. If this is the case, I really wonder how the PEUGEOT 308 has in fact won the Golden Wheel Award. I reported these problems to the local agent of Peugeot on 4 different occasions. They simply denied that the car has any problems since all the tests they carried out did not reveal any mechanical flaws. I am REALLY DISAPPOINTED that with all these DEFECTS the local agent persists glorifying the car as working in perfect condition. Writing to the mother company in France was also a shock. My complaint was diverted to Peugeot UK branch which in turn advised me to revert back to my local agent for help... so, BACK TO SQUARE ONE. Sixteen months after acquiring the car, these problems have remained unsolved. Any advice on how I could proceed towards the resolution problems cited will be greatly appreciated.

I’ve only had mine a couple of weeks but have noticed a tendency for it to pull to the left, but as there’s a bit of wheel wobble I’ll get the tracking checked. No surprise the main company don’t want to know.....had the same problem with Seat and them going on about franchises. Maybe get an AA report and submit that or print it in the local rag. Only real way is to walk with your money. I had to work so hard to buy my 308 and Peugeot won’t get my money next time! - Lisa Mead from Essex

I am having the same problem on a new 59 plate. I have been told by my dealership management that it is a "safety feature" of the car. After speaking to several technicians and Peugeot customer care they have never heard of this "feature" and, along with my friends and family, have never come across it before either. The matter is ongoing and is due in for examination on 7th December. If it it still there I will be changing the car - Martin Miller from East Lothian (Haddingtonshire)

Hi, I have a 08 308 1.6 HDi 110 Sport and my car was pulling to the left alot, I took it to see if the wheels needed aligned and they were fine. It turned out that uneven tyre wear was the cause of it in my case. Also I had a light on my dashboard ’Depolution Filter’, the car struggled to start and when it did start i revved it to about 4000 rpm and the light dissapeared soon after and I have had no problems since with it. Apart from that I find the passenger level for adjusting the back of the seat quite stiff. Overall apart from these few things I am extremely happy with my 308. I had the choice of a Focus, Golf, Astra and my 308 and I do not regret taking my 308 because its economical and lovely and comfortable to drive, I also love the centre arm rest!! - Jack 0’ Callaghan from Northern Ireland

Peugeot 206 2008

Bought mine; a 206 hdi diesel in October 2008, so far not had a problem engine wise but it’s very noisy on the road surface and the brakes sound like a traction engine when you slow down using them. The garage say it’s the hard type of pad, since they got rid of asbestos which you can longer buy. Also the suspension creaks getting in and out of the car. Sadly I’m stuck with the car which I have another 4 years to pay off and the garage I got it from second hand went bust in February. I can’t say I will ever buy a Peugeot again; today I found that the water bottle has a split in it... enough said.

Peugeot 1007 1.6 2005

This is the first small car I have ever had & purchased it as my wife has mobility problems. Found it surprisingly good - handles well & is quite lively if you keep the revs above 4000. Like everybody, had initial problems with doors which supplying dealer (Arnold Clark) didn’t have a clue how to fix. However, most problems can be sorted simply by greasing the locating plugs and sockets which are located at both the font and rear of the doors. They have now been trouble free for over two years! Problems can also occur if the exterior handle is used to open the door. If it is not pushed fully forward again after use the door will then fail to stay shut.

Peter, saw your report re 1007; I am having problems with mine and i have no trust with the main dealer who, when i took the car there, without looking at the problem, said its most likely the motor which also operates a strap which could snap. Upon asking how much it would cost to repair they said roughly £1000-00.I have since had an auto electrican look at the car and he gave it a sound examination, testing all components. All were working and the AE thinks its something simple but as we have no wiring diagram we dont know where else to look. I have looked at both points you mentioned and both contain grease - John Osborne

Peugeot 308 SW 1.6 HDi SE. 2009

Excellent spec estate with ample pulling power from the quiet 1.6 diesel engine combined with a 6 speed Gearbox gives a combined 58 mpg whilst motoring at speed - not bad for a 130 g/km of CO2 emissions! The level of trim is excellent with plenty of room inside for the family including the dog. The Dual Zone Air Conditioning combined with the massive all glass roof provides a really comfotable envirnoment to spend time on long journeys. Road handling and steering accuracy is excellent and the entire driving experience feels safe and secure with good lighting and excellent driving visibility - mirrors fold to ease garage parking. Intend to keep the vehicle for many years, and feel confident that the high build quality will not dissapoint. A definate 5 Star estate car which is well worth the £20K new price tag.

Peugeot Boxer motorhome 2008

Bought my eldis firestorm 180 on a Peugoet boxer 2.2 HDi in Sept 2008 not only was the motorhome part designed and built by the Flintstones but the Peugoet chassis cab must have been done by them as well. It has been in the local agents twice for them too listen to what in my opinion was a noisy gearbox and juddery clutch. Their reply was normal for this vehicle. Got on to customer services next the dealer has it back gearbox out and bearings replaced also a new clutch. After 3 weeks got said vehicle back gearbox noise was louder and the clutch is not much better. It apparently they have major problems. I really wish I had looked on the internet before wasting my money on this awful vehicle. It was bought on the strength of the earlier model which I had for 12 years from new with no problems at all. How can a firm of Peogeot’s stand produce a pile of rubbish like this after years of brilliance?

Peugeot 306 Roland Garros 1994

This car is fantastic, I have the rare Roland Garros with all the highest specification, only thing to watch out for is the electrics. Mechanically it’s a very good motor and engine but the electrics can be such a pain. I have half cream leather, full electrics, 205 gti alloys, sports seats, red seat belts, power steering, abs all as standard. This is definitely a model to look out for along with the superb meridian and gti 6. The car isn’t especially quick with the little 8 valve beast but take it down country roads and you are rewarded all day long the handling that is real tight with minimal body roll. Overall the 306 in general is a great car with a great chasis and handling to die for... But when you look at these cars, check all lights, windows, mirrors and easily accessable wiring looms as any unseen electrical problems are a little too common and often a head ache to put right.

Great car. I have had a blue wagon for 5 years, edition Eden Park, 1.8 16 V 110 bhp. It looks great, the handling is very good, well balanced between comfort and sport. The engine and the gearbox are perfect.The economy is good too 8-10 l/ 100km. I had a problem with the air conditioning, but it was a small problem and I could repair it. I’m very happy with the car, so I recommended it to a friend; he bought the hatchback version with the same engine but he’s had more problems than me. I think, it’s a question of luck. So, the car is good, check the electronics and the rear suspension, 1.6 gasoline engine and the 1.8 & 1.8 16V are the best engines, and the 2.0 HDI, too. 2.0 16V is good too, but hard to find. Nice driving to everyone! - Svetoslav Kitanov from Bulgaria

Peugeot 207 CC THP150 2008

I bought this car when it was 11 months old with 4600 miles on the clock, I have the THP150 and it absolutely flies, beautiful to drive and my 18 year old daughter loves it. Quite good on fuel consumption, first service was £47. It has all the bells and whistles. So far I cannot fault it, never had a pug before but if this car keeps up the great performance then I would buy again.

I am puzzled, why does the interior light only come on when the driver’s door is opened? Surely, it should come on when the passenger door, or one of the back doors, is opened?

Responses to this review

You are absolutely right. There are a few things, which shows an unbelieveble stingyness, as for an example the right window, which can’t be moved from the drivers side. Was it a problem to put a second switch somewhere in reach point of the driver? But there is a more serious problem I have encountered now. My semi-automatic transmission clutch plate (wow!!!) has a very serious defect and has to be changed at only 27.000km. How come ? The material used is not strong enough and it will be worn out very soon again! So my mechanic advised me to buy a spare part from another firm, not from Peugeot. How could such a thing happen?

Peugeot 207 HDI S 2007

I ’ve had my car for just over 4 wks, I have noticed that stereo switches from the cd to the radio as if I had selected it. Then today my son tried to open the passenger door and the handle came off in his hand!! My son is 8! I have contacted my dealer and booked it in to be looked at, but they are making noises, that it couldn’t possibly be a fault and that I will have to cover the cost. I find this terrible as the car is still under manufacter’s warranty and it’s clearly a fault. If anyone has any advice it would be most welcome.

Peugeot 207 2007

I have no problems with my 207 thp, a lovely car but what is the point of owing such a vehicle? As soon as anything goes wrong you are told you have to wait 28 days for delivery - If you can’t buy off the shelf. And this is from Peugeot, France. I think its a disgrace; so it might have to be a Focus ST.

Peugeot 107 5 door hatch 2009

As your reports! A smart nicely finished car all round. Just two small quibbles. The petrol gauge and gear selection position is in my opinion on the wrong side of the speedometer as the gear selected is in a shade and hard to see when in manual mode. The second quibble is that to change gear manually in the 107 is opposite to other cars with this type of gear box, ie, to change up to a higher gear you push the gear lever away from you and to change down to a lower gear you pull the gear lever towards you, not as in the 107. As I have only had the 107 for two weeks I still get things wrong. Can you tell me why the change, as things are quite normal in the 307, my previous car?

Peugeot 207 CC 2008

It has gone to the dealer today for its first service and have just had a call from them to say it needs another tyre and now needs new brakes and discs. Also, this car is not what I thought it was going to be. One year old and I have already payed out over £700. What a let down. Do not buy this car. I hope to get shot of it today. NEVER, EVER will I buy a Peugeot 207 CC or any other Peugeot. We have a Dodge; we have had it for three years - my god it has not cost us £200 in ththat time - not like that Peugeot. DO NOT BUY IT YOU WILL REGRET IT - WHAT A LET DOWN. IF THERE IS ANY JUSTICE IN THIS WORLD THIS CAR WILL BE TAKEN OFF THE ROAD.

Peugeot 207 2009

I bought my new car in March this year and all was well to start off. I noticed that the car is sluggish when pulling out from junctions, trying to overtake and climbing any slight incline. I have had the air conditioning sorted as I was advised that was causing the problem. What a joke that was. Even I know that had nothing to do with it!!! The car has been in garage twice for a Diagnostics check and they have found nothing. Has anyone had the same problem ?

Responses to this review
Same problems - car sluggish in 1st and 2nd gear. The gear changes are rough and the car can only achieve 85 mph; bluetooth does not work. I am not happy am taking it back to be looked at - will keep you posted - Ian Rougvie from Northamptonshire

I have exactly the same problem. On top end the car is brill, 100mph plus, no problem but if you have to slow down on a duel carriage way to overtake etc and you drop you speed down, then you put your foot down again to overtake, there is no return at all, it takes ages for the car to resume the speed it was doing. We have had it back once, and they said it was a fault with the onboard computer, they had it for a few hours and then I got it back. At first I thought it was cured and now the problem is still there, it’s going back again. I will let you know what happens - Jenny Ward from Durham

Peugeot Boxer 2009

We bought a new motorhome in March - a base van Peugeot Boxer - ran it for 2,500 miles and in June, on the way to France, only 50 miles from home it broke down. Juddering and losing revs. The AA came to assist us and said the problem was the egr valve, replaced it but problem was not sorted - the van is still with Peugeot 5 weeks later; they must have spent in the region of £6,000 on parts. It has had a high pressure fuel pump, injectors etc etc - each part they needed seemed to have around a 2 to 3 week delay - we have had to contact Peugeot UK numerous times to chase part availability on behalf of the garage. We are now on first name terms with the Customer Services Manager and have been told that the problem with our van has been one of the more serious problems they have to solve in the country. Two weeks ago we were told that Peugeot thought that the problem was the ECU and that the part would not be available till 31/7/09 - we waited patiently and the 31/7 came and we contacted Peugeot to be told this would now not be available till 11/8. At this my partner contacted the motorhome dealership and informed them that we were giving the motorhome back and wanted our money back. The Motorhome dealership were fantastic and kindly sent a donor van to assist Peugeot (Peugeot had already told my partner that they didn’t have one in the country that they could use as a donor vehicle) in their dilemma - at last the van worked. AH! BUT... still hav nt got the motorhome back - Peugeot won’t leave that ECU on the van as they say they need to put the one on that is specially ordered for our van - they say these ECUs are unique to the van they are ordered for? I am no expert does anyone know if this is the case? By the way the man who is considering buying a ford - our peugeot has a ford transit engine!!

Thanks for your review and information, I will look this up if I have the same problem with my 3.0 litre version of the camper. Check out your leaf spring assister lower leaf, the rubbers fell off ours and a knocking noise was heard - I thought it was the side step and it took a bit of finding. Peugeot replaced both sets and the replacements are beefier than the originals. I have fitted airsprings in place of Peugeot’s spring bump stops and ride is better. Check underseal arrangements, Peugeot only do bare minimum. I have undersealed mine with waxoil based product. There is also no under engine protection and engine block corrodes with salt, I have cleaned thoroughly and applied paint coating to engine aluminum block. Best of luck with your engine problems - my engine is fine and I hope it stays that way, sounds like Peugeot are not responding to your problem, your rights to send it back as not fit for purpose are lost if you accept a repair, ask for a complete replacement van - talk to consumer advice for independent advice - Boxer from England

Peugeot 206 CC 2003

I have had my baby for just over a year now. Yes, the driver side leaks in from the roof, but a small price to pay (don’t all convertibles leak? My Grand Vitara used to be like a pond!). The only real quarm I have is the clutch, I’ve stalled this car more times in a year than I’ve had hot dinners, the biting point is never really there and before you know it its stalled! I just can’t get the hang of it, never ever had problems like this before and as my driving instructor used to save "give it some gas" which is what I always have to do! Maybe it needs looking at, it is a bit stiff and also the car judders terribly in 1st gear like it’s about to stall and needs more gas. So if anyone has any advice please let me know! But it is nice in Summer!!!!

Peugeot 206 Look 2004

I foolishly purchased this car based on looks alone in 2006. Within six months the car had fell to bits, the car would cut out and die on me far too often, then the gear stick would not go into reverse so I went into the garage to be fixed and when I got it back the stick came out in my hand! The back window leaked, when that was fixed they scratched the boot. When I had the car back all the badges fell off the boot. This was the final straw for me so I got rid of the 206 & got a C2 (which was a heap of crap) now have a Grande Punto & much much happier :)

Peugeot Expert Tepee Tepee Eurobus 2007

I have had my Peugeot since August 2007, the only thing I can say about it is what a peice of rubbish. Problems started within two weeks. In the last 2 years it has had 2 front anti roll bars, waiting for the third now, 5 sets of discs, lost track of brake pads, rear bushes are on the way, out clutch has been replaced, starter motor replaced, ECU went wrong, side doors stick, front tire wear is unbelievable. I spoke to Cab Direct who sold me the vehicle and they weren’t intrested, the warranty is a waste of time and as for Peugeot you might as well bang your head against a brick wall; it would be less painful then trying to get anywhere with Cab Direct or Peugeot. As for the modified anti roll bar, my local dealer has never heard of it.

Peugeot 1007 1.6 Sport 2-Tronic 2007

I like the car and I’m gutted that it’s been discontinued. The door problems usually stem from dirty contacts on the door frame or dirt in the door catch at the rear of the door. If the door refuses to close properly, a few squirts of WD-40 on the contacts and the door latch will uaually fix it, it did in my case anyway.

Peugeot 306 hdi d turbo 1999

Hi, I own a 1999 306 hdi d turbo which has a front mount intercooler and a charge cooler fitted, remapped, a straight through stainless steel exhaust running around 160+ bhp. Very fast for a 306; 0-60 in about mid 7 I think and still manages 40+ mpg. It has been very reliable; I use it as a everyday car and weekend toy. It has 102 on clock. Moonstone blue; the best car I have owned - I also have a golf gt tdi. The 306 is better I think.

Peugeot 306 GTI-6 2007

Worst car I’ve ever had, you name it, it went wrong. Build quality appalling. Turning circle horrendous. Customer service atrocious. Loathed to give it even 1 star, hence to say I will never ever buy French again.

Peugeot 307 SW 1.6 hdi 2004

Very nice car to drive but unreliable and costly! Had it for 9 months and so far flywheel failed, egr valve failed, injector seals leaked and particulate filter failed - costing a total of about £1000. It’s a good job I’m a mechanic or it would have been double. I used to love Peugeot diesels but not now.

Absolute SH1tE !! 13 warranty returns, depollution fault! 1 full day to rewind brake calliper! 3 years old!!! Off the road over 8 months! STEER WELL CLEAR!!! Tyre sensors fail after 5 mins etc etc...

Peugeot 407 2006

I have had a Peugeot 407 SW 2L automatic since November 06. The car is wonderful to drive, is very comfortable and has also been extremely reliable with no major engine problems. The car seems well worth its cost and more! The automatic gear box is smooth and was very easy for a novice automatic driver to get used to. All in all a splendid car and one well worth buying.

Peugeot 307 CC 2005

Brought car 3 years ago broke down a year out of warranty, needed decoke on engine only covered 22,000 miles cost £1200 to repair, told caused by short journeys. Is this normal for such a new car?

Peugeot 206 CC 2002

I love this car - have had it for 2 years. I passed my test and bought an MG F which I hated and only kept for 3 weeks before buying the 206cc. After driving the MG this felt like a tank. I’ve never had anything go wrong (touch wood) and only just had the cam belt replaced at 80,000 (just as a precaution). Easy to park, easy to drive , GREAT fuel consumption, Cornwall to London (and all around town for a couple of days) on a full tank - Beats british rail prices at any rate. Never had leaky windows.

Peugeot 207 CC 1.6 THP 150 2007

Nice car .... but.... in and out of main dealership with de pollution fault and lack of power. Was interested in getting 308CC 1.6THP150 but wouldn’t touch with a barge pole at the moment.

Responses to this review
Further to my last report our 207CC has been back to the main dealer twice more. The misfire/lack of aceleration was finally sorted by replacing the cam follower and chain. No sooner had it back than an ESP fault appeared. Back for new ABS brake parts to be fitted. This weekend the engine was started from cold and the electric fan came on immediately together with the depollution warning light. Because I thought it had overheated I had it recovered to the main dealer on the back of a breakdown truck. My wife needs a car for work but they had no loan cars available and told me there is no liability to provide a car under the warranty. It was suggested I should hire a car! I have bought many new cars of different makes, including four Peugeots, over the years but this 207CC is by far the most troublesome car I have ever owned. Apart from the inconvenience this 2 year old car has cost Peugeot themselves warranty costs in 4 figures - Graham Mitson from Surrey

Peugeot Expert Tepee 2ltr 8 seat comfort lwb 2007

Well, would you believe it? I have just lost the power steering and I have a bucket load of work to do. It just gets better and better with this car. I lost it for nearly a week last time . IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING BUYING ONE OF THESE FOR TAXI WORK DON’T UNLESS YOU GET A BLOODY GOOD WARRANTY ON IT. I have the standard 3 year 60k warranty which will run out in about 6 weeks time and if you read my previous posts you will see why you need it. I can’t afford to change the car!!!!!!!

Peugeot 107 2005

Nicely priced small car which I bought second hand from a dealer near to me. But!! It had no manual with it (suppose it was lost by previous owner) so when I had a fuse gone regarding the side light/tail lights/number plate/dash lights; I thought I would change the fuse. Where the hell are they? It’s not the ones under the bonnet so where the hell are they? Can anyone please tell me as I have a long journey to go on and if it gets dark (as it will) I have no idea where to look for them. Can anyone advise me PLEASE!!!

Peugeot 1007 2006

Bought for ease access for disabled driver. Left door opens even when the car is locked. When you shut it it just opens again. This has happened when parked and unattended. It has happened while setting off with a passenger - very dangerous. No warranty so paid £350 for new lock mechanism which has not fixed it.

Peugeot 206 gti 2002

I can’t fault my 206. On interior and styling it is immaculate for its age and has only done 57k miles from new. However road noise is so loud on motorways and it knocks and bangs really bad on rough road surfaces that makes the drive uncomfortable. Had it in the garage and they say there is nothing wrong with it???

Peugeot 306 xsi 1999

Great little car, only had it for 3 months. Great on petrol and really great to drive. I think I’m going hold on to my little car for a while longer before upgrading.

Peugeot 1007 2005

I have just bought the Peugeot 1007. Straight away, on the 2nd day, I had problems with the left door. I phoned up my dealer and they have booked it in - the only problem is that even when I have locked it it seems to open up. This is a safety issue as twice the door was left open in the street. Otherwise the car is a great drive but I will be speaking to my dealer about the mechanical faults on the door as I only took out a warranty for a year.

Peugeot 407 SW 2005

My advice would be not to get one. The looks are fine and the space and ride comfort are good. The economy and performance of the engine are what you expect of a Peugeot diesel. So what’s the problem, it is very bad electronically, and constantly needs to go in to be reset. The garage I bought it from got sold and the new main dealer doesn’t fill me with any confidence. Services are fairly priced but as an example other repairs are expensive - clutch £1000, fuel pump £700 and sensors £200. Let me put it like this; my old Mercedes-Benz, with 120,000 miles was more reliable.

Peugeot 207 2009

Just purchased a new 207. I am very pleased with the car so far except that occasionally the water temperature gauge dose not move at all until I have travelled at least 5 or 6 miles. Another time it will move to normal straight away even though the outside temperature is the same. Is there anyone out there who has noticed the same thing? It would be nice to hear from you.

Responses to this review

Yes, the same thing happens to my 207, sometimes the temp gauge will work OK, the next time I drive it it will stay on the bottom and not move at all - Simon Butterfield from Durham

I have just bought a 207 1.6hdi brand new in December 2009. I noticed the same problem with the temperature guage. I was told by the dealer that this was because it was below freezing. The gauge would stay very low on short trips but on runs would read normal.This I found was correct but I’m not happy with the situation. Did you get any further? Tony King from Cheshire

Peugeot 206 SW 2.0 HDi XT 2002

Have now done over 115k and have not had any major problems apart from normal wear. Drop links and ball joints need replacement on a regular basis but this could be the terrible roads I drive on. Very reliable, economical and practical too. I like the open-able boot window which gives access to an ample boot for a small estate car. Have it serviced regularly to keep the HDi engine running smoothly.

Peugeot 1007 1600 Sport 2006

I bought this car 1 year ago, reason - easy to get in and out of. The first couple of weeks I had trouble with the doors opening on their own. I found the cure for this problem was to clean all the door contacts with lighter fluid, also clean any crud off the bottom rail where the roller runs. If you have trouble with the doors its best to reset them, it tells you how to do this in the handbook (its easy). I found the ride harsh and bumpy, the tyres fitted by Peugeot were near the wear bar so I had a set of Toyo’s fitted - WOW what a difference the car is quiet, smooth, holds the road much better, and seems to go better. If I drive it well it will do well over 50mpg, if I drive it enthusiastically the mpg does drop. I found if overtaking it’s best to select manual gearchange because if it’s in auto and you put your foot down it suffers from a flat spot while it tries to change gear which can be quite frightening. Also, if I want to drive enthusiastically I find it best to select manual, all in all I find my 1007 a cracking little car and I’m pleased I bought it.

Peugeot Expert 2008

I purchased it 18mths ago I have extended warranty on it a Peugeot one and an AMG one as I use it as a taxi the clutch has only a 20000 mile warranty which was replaced in last two weeks a flywheel replaced last two weeks; a wishbone and ball joint replaced in last week; a starter replaced in last week and is now back in garage due to loss of power in battery. Only my starter under warranty. I have had to bump start my taxi every time I turn off ignition since starter replaced; it is a nightmare. Anyone with same problem?

Purchased my new e7 taxi 08 plate it has already had 2 new anti-roll bar, my door runners have gone I have had 4 new clutches, 4 new dual mass flywheels and it is sill no better. It has 38000 miles on the taxi, it all started about 1200 miles garyflintoft@hotmail.com - Gary Flintoft from Yorkshire

Peugeot Expert Tepee Taxi 2008

Hi, I have only had my taxi since December 08 with 17,000 miles only. The dealer replaced the fly wheel and clutch and within 18hrs it came adrift and wrecked the gearbox. It has taken 3 weeks for someone to take responsibility for it and I have not earned a penny in that time. Can you help me and point me in the right way to get compensation. Thank you; you can contact me at robson.derek AT sky.com

Peugeot Boxer 2007

The worst pile of crap I have ever owned ever. Great cabin (c**p running gear), pulls well (when it works). Thinking of the future? Ummm... cheap to run (if you leave it at home due to spending 2-4 days a month in the last year at Peugeot). I hate to think of the cost when warranty runs out. Loads of room inside (when the doors will unlock). Peugeot UK? Who are they? They give you case number why? They do nothing; oh yeah sorry, Peugeot UK you talk c**p. Say with me egr valves, egr valves, egr valves, egr valves, egr valves, egr valves - that’s how many were replaced within 2000 miles. Software updates got me on this one - I bought a van not a computer. I did ask if they could try uploading windows 95 as I remember that worked quite well. Wind noise - sorted that one but don’t get chance really to comment as never reach any great speeds due to power loss, last 2-4-8 seconds quote by Peugeot UK - When this happens, bring it to us. Right, that’s what I have been doing, I know all your names and you don’t even have to put a key tag with my name on it, as it has its own little place at Peugeot with pillow and..... Well, THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE MY SAY.

Peugeot 807 2.0 Executive 2006

I bought the car for the internal space and the sliding doors - which are a huge boon with kids. The car is very comfortable to drive on long drives and achieves/maintains high speeds easily - but has poor acceleration. For a car it’s size I am happy with it’s handling. The internal layout gets a bit of getting used to but is very useful. However the niggles are quite numerous:- Due to it’s greater than normal width it is a tight fit in many car parks and I had dents in my doors thanks to other drivers in supermarket car parks within months. The upholstery on the drivers side has worn excessively. The electrics are unreliable with the electric sliding doors and windows stopping working when they feel like it. The aluminium tyre valves are prone to metal fatigue and snap off when you are putting air in. The service levels at the Peugeot garages seem poorer than other marque garages, in my experience compared to VW, Renault, Rover (RIP) & Honda.

Peugeot Expert Tepee 2ltr 8 seat comfort lwb 2007

Update to previous: car failed to start last Sunday morning, I thought maybe the key had lost its code. I tried the spare on the Monday, still no good, tried jumping, no good. I called the breakdown service who managed to get it started by shorting the terminals of the starter with a penny. I left it with main dealer to look into and also the grinding/knocking from the clutch which they aid was likely to be clutch bearing. Well... the grinding is the dual mass fly wheel, luckily still on warranty or I would be looking at £1000 to fix it. The starting was a fuse!!!!!! I have to say I have lost all faith in this car, in the 7 months I have had it, it has been in the main dealer 7 times for faults. It’s on 48k now I got it on 22k - I am shaking just thinking about the next 30k. I cannot recommend this car anymore to much has gone wrong. Peugeot, you have built a pile of, well you know what...

Peugeot Expert Tepee expert e7 2008

I have a new E7, bought in 2008. I have had many problems with the clutch. Peugeot replaced the clutch twice but I am still not satisfied, as the gear is still not running smoothly. I have had a problem with the anti roll bar brushes. I have no faith in Peugeot dealership to correct the ongoing problem. Peugeot Garages within my town have been very unhelpful. I have lost valuable time due to this problem. I have also found that a lot of my colleagues in Leicester with this vehicle have had the same problem and have had their clutches replaced twice in one year.

Peugeot 307 2004

F***! We’re on our way to office, we are lucky because I drop my wife off at her office first... while I was driving on my way to work I’m on the motorway they called "killer highway" and my engine stops in the middle of this highway... I bought this car one day ago from an auto market, after one day she almost put my life in danger... I called recovery for me to go direct to the garage for checking on what exactly the problem and I was not able to report on duty because of that incident. After one week of waiting they found out that the problem is the timing belt - they changed everything - then they fixed it and the car is ready to pick up... When I checked it out, I found out that the brakes are not working... what to do? I want to be out of this problem.. I spoke to the car dealer in order to return or change the car but there is still no response.

Peugeot 1007 2006

My passenger door has not worked properly since I bought it second hand 2 years ago but as I did not use it much then it didn’t really matter. However, it has now stopped opening electronically completely and sometimes locks and will not open manually. I have taken it into my local dealer who has had it a since last Thursday. He has put a new motor in it which blew something else which I have had to pay for the bill - so far is about £350. He said that its because it hasn’t been used enough, would it have been caused by over use if I had said we were always using it? Having read the other reviews I think this is a fault that should be taken up by Peugeot. I shall be speaking to Trading Standards about this.

Peugeot 107 Urban 2-Tronic 5dr 2008

This is a truly brilliant car! It’s an honest little workhorse that is fun to drive and very very economical. The semi-automatic is a breeze to use and makes the car so easy to drive. The ’kickdown’ is excellent fun for a 1.0ltr engine, but it has 69bhp and next to no weight. It’s big enough inside for 4 adults and the boot is fine for the weekly shop. Handles really well on its skinny tyres and is happy on the motorway. And the icing on the cake is the £35 road tax and group 1 insurance. No wonder I have seen so many of these (and the C1 and Aygo) little cars on the road. Buy one!!!

Peugeot Expert Tepee 2ltr 8 seat comfort lwb 2007

An update to my previous entry. Since last writing I have had both the anti roll link bars done at 30000, rear discs and pads at 33000 plus both sliding door windows replaced due to water leakage. I still have creaking and knocking from the rear, any thoughts? Still a good drive though, I have to say I still prefer the 806 which has done 175000 (reckon its done more like 275000) and is still going strong. Anyone know how I can stretch it to get more luggage in? Also, I can’t believe a 2007 engine that cant run on biofuel!!!!!!!

Peugeot 1007 Diesel Sport 2006

In 20 years of owning cars I have never experienced anything like this! The electronic doors on my car are unreliable, unpredictable and dangerous; they have a mind of their own and when they decide to close of their accord nothing will stop them. One one occasion they closed unexpectedly on my daughter as she attempted to enter the car. She tried to push the door back but it would not stop, she propelled herself backwards out of the car but the door caught her foot. Fortunately her lace was not tied and she was able to slip her foot out of the shoe. The door closed on top of the shoe and crushed it. We had a lucky escape it could have been a very different story. I took delivery of the car yesterday after it being with the Dealer for 16 days to repair the doors, (second time to Dealer with same fault). I drove it home, exited the car and the driver’s door failed; it jammed half way closed. I phone the Peugeot Dealer, they told me they could do nothing until next Tuesday. I was in a very distressed state and stressed that I was due to collect my child and now had no transport. I made the dealership aware that it was raining and the interior of my car was being soaked, I conveyed my deep concern that the car would be vulnerable to theft if it lay open for four days. None of this made any difference. After several communications they agreed to take responsibility for any damage caused if I manually forced the door shut. I tried to open the car this morning and neither of the doors would operate, I now have no access to the vehicle. I contacted the Dealer Principle of the Peugeot Dealership to inform him of this new development and he told me to ’f*** off’ and slammed the phone down. Luckily I recorded the conversation and intend to pass it to Peugeot UK. Other problems include; bubbling paintwork at the back of the car, paintwork peeled off the exterior runners and the vinyl eroded on both doors. The car is still under Manufacturer’s Warranty, in addition to this I purchased extended warranty when I bought the vehicle. I am the first owner of the car, prior to this it was a demonstrator. In conclusion I would not advise anyone to even consider purchasing this vehicle.

Peugeot 407 SW 2007

I had the 406 and was over the moon with it, but I now find the 407 looks good and drives well BUT... Big car on the outside and small on the inside, not enough space in the boot to put my golf clubs and trolley. Not sure what the glass roof is meant to offer me?????. And very very low to the ground. I am sure I have more scratches under the car than an old banger racing car. The seats are not as good as the 406; a bit small and hard.

Peugeot 407 SW 136 2.0 Zenith 2005

Had this car for 1 year used. Great drive and very comfortable. It is just spoilt by a few faults. I get the odd warning light come on for esp and indicator bulb faulty. Have to reset the ignition to clear. Also tyre pressure sensors are a pain have to keep tyres at about 34psi. But I think the main fault is it could do with a bit more power. I have always felt that it was probably powered by 136 French horses, you know the ones that constantly strike. I had a VW 130bhp previous and it would thrash the 407. I am therefore going to the doctor who claim the can re-map my car to 175bhp. Should cure that. All in all though no horror stories. Would buy another but probably the Coupe 407.

Peugeot Boxer 2003

We bought the van at 6 months old and we found it to be the best all rounder for us. We move furniture and light goods our mileage is now 150000 and is still going strong no major breakdowns. Replaced clutch at 120000 miles no oil burning; services all done as required and parts replaced as needed. This is a van I would replace with the same without hesitation.

Peugeot Expert Tepee 2007

I use the E7 as a hackney carriage. The vehicle is beautiful to drive, but all is not good. All the NEW E7 drivers have had similar trouble. The anti-rollbar and links have been replaced under warranty. The dual mass flywheel develops play and needs replacing. Please note if you notice clutch judder when vehicle is warm. Please visit dealer as soon as possible, because if you go over 20,000 miles the dealer will insist on replacing the clutch as well. They will tell you to pay for the clutch (clutch warranty 20,000m) and Peugeot will reimburse you. Don’t fall for it - they will not. Insist the clutch not be replaced as its not worn out yet, or let them replace the clutch, but don’t part with any money. THE FLYWHEEL IS FAULTY, NOT THE CLUTCH. MY LOCAL DEALER IS THE WORST GARAGE I HAVE DEALT WITH IN OVER 18 YEARS. PEUGEOT H.Q AREN’T MUCH BETTER. TRY GETTING EVERYTHING IN WRITING.

Responses to this review
I have a similar problem, my clutch pedal is vibrating constantly. It does not make a noise, it’s just when you put your foot on the clutch pedal that it vibrates all time. Peugeot have said that the clutch has gone. Cab direct are saying it’s the flywheel and 5 independent garages and engineers have all said it’s the dual mass fly wheel. However, Peugeot are still insisting it’s the clutch. This is because the flywheel IS covered on the Warranty but the clutch is not as I’ve done 40,000 miles. Probably Peugeot trying to make money out of me - Gerry from Devon

Peugeot Partner Combi Escapade 2006

Fantastic utility vehicle. Good fuel consumption from the 1600 hdi engine. I think this vehicle is great value for money - I have owned Citroen and Nissan vehicles and this beats them hands down.

Peugeot 207 SE Premium 90 2007

Had the car now for 18 months and very pleased with it. No faults to date other than a slightly juddering clutch when in 1st and the car is not warmed up. I suspect a minor fluid leak onto the clutch plate but have yet to present the fault to the dealer as it doesn’t affect the car much. Interior is well designed and very well put together although it does need some reading lights in the back. The glass roof is superb and really makes the car feel spacious and light. I’ve got the 1.4 90BHP engine which I find is strangely well suited to motorway use but really struggles to move the car around town (and sounds like its in real pain over 4,000 rpm!). Oh, and the glove box is useless! Trouble with the 207 is its not really a Peugeot; it’s too well built (!) and the ride/handling are far too ordinary. However, I would certainly consider another as long as it had a bigger engine.

Peugeot 206 CC 1.6 2004

Whilst the car looks good, especially with the roof down, not that impressed overall. I’ve found it quite noisy on the motorway, and seats are very uncomfortable on long journeys. Electrics have now gone 3 times!!!! Costly! As others have said - leaky windows - when you open the door on a wet day, get your leg out the way or you will have a pool of water land on it. I quite enjoyed the car at first, but these niggles/problems have now made me think about moving on...

Peugeot 207 CC 2007

I got my 207cc Sept 2007 after swapping my 206cc for this new updated shape. Couldn’t wait to get it after my 206cc with its leaky roof. At first I loved my NEW 207cc cruising around with the top down. Then one morning I’m heading to work and it just cuts out, power steering turns off and I’m heading toward a bus stop, there I am with a gang full of people waiting for the bus, in my brand new 207cc with its brand new number plates and its broken down, how embarrassed was I!!! Then if that’s not bad enough the bus came, couldn’t stop in the bus stop because I was in the way. Everyone had to walk out in front of me so they could get on the bus. What funny looks I was getting. I took it back to Peugeot, they kept it for a day, drove round in it, hooked it up to their computer and said there was nothing wrong with it. After taking it back several times, I was told its the way I drive it. Whatever!!!! I said the same after my 206 but I tell you now, I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER PEUGEOT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’ve nearly had it 2 yeard now and its still cutting out. Biggest pile of c**p ever!!!!

Peugeot 307 CC 2005

Piece of s**t! 6 months old - automatic air condition fault twice! Roof jammed 4 times - flooded interior - countless abs system faults - 4 times esp/asr system fault 4 times - depollution system fault only once ;) consumption around 9.2l/100km (1.6 16v) only positive is good look, when stands parked in front cafe. PS - run away from this crap car!!!!!!!!!

Peugeot 206 CC CC 2003

I bought a 2003 Peugeot 206 cc yesterday. On the way home from the dealer the accelerator stuck down to the floor. Luckily I was on a fairly clear road and somehow managed to drive along keeping the car under control with the brake on - then the accelerator released itself with a definite pinging noise. I am scared to drive it now. I had noticed and commented on the carpet on the drivers side because it was loose around the door - I now believe the car was sold to me knowing it had this dangerous problem. I need to get to work so what do I do - drive this car and hope the problem doesn’t happen or run the gauntlet of taking it back to the dealer and risk trouble at work. Great. I was so excited about having a ’new’ car. Variant: . Year Of Make: 2003

Peugeot 207 1.4 207s. 2006

I love my car... We bought it brand new a few weeks after the launch and I’ve never looked back. Yes, we have had a few minor problems with it (such as the anti-pollution fault, which was sorted out by Platts in High Wycome, by replacing the sensor), but all in all, its a great car. Someone else said it is sluggish, which is true, but if you have only bought a 1.4 what did you expect?!?!? It has a smooth drive, and I always feel very safe while I am driving. There is plenty of space (I have a 1 year old son, so I have plenty to haul around) and enough room in the back for 2 adults. I’m already looking forward to getting my new 207 in Septemeber...

I do not expect clutch judder on a new vehicle, in first and reverse gears. My vehicle as had all the "mods" but I still dare not reverse it uphill. Very poor show Peugeot.

Peugeot 207 CC 1.6 HDI

Got the car Sept. 2007. Totally peed off with this car, nothing but trouble with it from the start!! Depollution System Faulty, Brake Fault, and now get this today (1/4/09) no joke the starter motor (which by the way should be approx 10 years down the line) has gone/burnt out. BUT GUESS WHAT ’that’s ok it’s still under warranty’. Well what is going to happen when it is out of warranty in another 18 months. Phoning trading standards tomorrow to see where I stand about getting it replaced or having my money refunded by PEUGEOT. If anyone can help on how to go about this please please contact me on k.e.guest@live.com

Peugeot 206 CC 2004

If you have driven an MX-5 you will know what an appalling car this is. Yes, it has an electronic roof, windscreen sensors, automatic lights and the list goes on. It is a typical French car, spongy to drive and no pleasure at all. It’s top speed on the 2.0i is 126mph - yeah right - make that 115 at best. It drives like a bag of spanners. Smart to look at and does have some redeeming features .I went from an old 1.8 MX5 to this and regretted it. Now back in a new MX5. I never had a smile on my face with the Peugeot but with the MX5 it returned quickly. Ah bliss again and I am enjoying those country roads.

Peugeot Boxer SWB 1.9 1998

Bought my Boxer in 2003, second hand. This van is bomb proof! Used for paving and landscaping business, faultless and capable of carrying twice the specified load rating. Just sold it on to third owner, had tear in my eye. Transit, Vivaro etc, are toys in comparison!

Peugeot Boxer 2007

The Boxer van I bought is the biggest pile of c**p I have made the mistake to buy, customer support is pathetic, the van has had more recalls than a pair of old boots going back and forth to the cobblers. It has more rust on the engine block than a scrapped car in the 60’s, doors are all out of line. I have suffered more faults with this van than you can imagine I would have been better to buy a three legged table and put wheels on that, least I would get somewhere.

Peugeot 206 CC Quicksilver 2004

Great little car - quite a hard ride, but very positive. Roof is fantastic and even down there is quite a bit of room in the boot. One main problem is that if you have a flat tyre, although you get a wheel brace, you don’t get a jack !! - which makes life a but difficult even if you have bought a spare wheel. They give you cans of tyre repair to get you to safety, but once these are used the tyres are finished (or so I am told). I had an interesting conversation with my dealer when I ask what the wheel brace was for and he said ’to undo the wheel nuts’ to which I responded ’and then what - without a jack’. Be warned and buy yourself a Peugeot jack when you buy this car.

Peugeot 307 1.6 Sport 2006

After weeks in the garage the steering problem has not been rectified. The garage says it is something to do with the size of the wheels (17" alloys) and that it is fine with smaller wheels. Any reasonable size bump in the road results in the steering jumping to accommodate the bump (I never have this problem with my bog standard NHS Corsa). The steering also feels as if it wants to follow the contour of the road. I have little or no faith left in the car. Anyone else experienced similar problems? BEWARE....DON’T BUY

Electrical Problems. My Father has a 1007 which since he as owned and has had problems, first the ABS light came on, returned to local garage and main dealer could not find the problem and ABS was working fine they say. Second, door problem on N/s bouncing open when closing. Now lack of power @ ESP light flashing, car will not go over 60mph. Jerks when pulling off from junctions and hates hills, and engine management light on. Returned to local garage and main dealer both unable to find problems ?? Anyone else had these problems? If so please email me direct, its a great little car prefect for my parents, but c**p at moment. john.carpy@btopenworld.com

Peugeot 207 CC 2007

I am gobsmacked to see all these negative reports. I only bought my 207 CC last Thursday and today I have had a problem with the depollution system and also the brakes. The car lost power and I was quite concerned about continuing to drive the car, which I had to, to get home. I feel rather down now. Will speak to the garage tomorrow and am printing all these reports off to show them. Thanks.

Peugeot 207 SW S 2008

Got the car on motability. Have had no faults with it in six months of driving it every day. One minor problem is having a slightly larger wheelchair than average boot space is limited when carrying four people. Average about 33mpg around town and 48mpg on a run. Never achieved the stated 55mpg yet driving very carefully.

Peugeot 207 CC 2008

Same problem as everyone else - depollution light comes on, car loses power. Garage ’fixed’ it, and it is fine for a few days, then - depollution light comes on, car loses power. When the car goes, it is lovely, but am getting fed up with it now.

Peugeot 407 1.6 110 bhp se 2005

I can simply say this car is brilliant; it is great fun to drive and it is extremely sporty for a car this size. This is the best car I’ve had yet - trust me on this you cant go wrong!

What rubbish. These cars are scrap and will be a constant nightmare for the new owner financially and mentally! - Damian Rushe

I totally agree with Joe, my silver 2005 2.0 HDI 136 SE has to be the best car I ever owned! Its the best driving car I have ever owned in my whole 30 years of driving. Its really smooth and composed and even with 155k on the clock she goes as the day I got her new. No problems at all, only complaint I HAD was that there was no button on the boot lid to open it until my 11 year old nephew showed me were it was. Fantastic car. Also if Damien Rushe sees this comment I just want to say to him he odviously doesn’t know a good car when he sees one, your a nightare by the sounds of it. Goodbye - Sinead from County Armagh

I am having problems buying a child car seat for my car (granddaughter 14 months old) which one is the correct one for my car...

Peugeot 207 CC 2007

Having read the below comments, we have had bother with our car also. Agree it is a lovely car when running. OK, it is a great car to drive, sturdy, quiet and no leaks!! However, within weeks of getting it, it stalled whilst driving for no reason, engine management system came on and depollution warning also showed up. Obviously when it cut out the power steering went - very dangerous. Back to dealer, sorted and the fault returned another two times in the next 6 months; eventually requiring a brand new engine!! To date the car has only done 2000 miles, but only because it travels locally and after 10 months with new engine the same problem has just happened again tonight. Wife hates driving it now and has no confidence. Dealership won’t admit to knowing about similar problems and just keep blanking us as the car is now 18 months old. Any other similar problems - or any advice on how to deal with it?

Peugeot 407 SW 136sw se with sat nav 2007

Brilliant car; bought new; great discount; dealer excellent. I bought the car to run as a taxi and so far have had 40,000 trouble free miles, 18,000 on front tyres, amazing. An average of 55 miles to the gallon around town, 60 on motorway. Only wish it had bigger brakes because it’s a bit quick. I will definitely have another - Viva La France :)

Peugeot 207 GT 2006

I have owned my 207 GT for 8 months now and it has been in the garage every single month in the last 8 months. Currently in the garage now for 2 weeks with the same re-occurring fault. Just seeking legal advice to get the car replaced!!!!!

Peugeot 207 2007

I have had a problem with the car door opening too wide unless you hold the door as you get out it swings wide open an has got damaged at the hinge. I would not recommend the 1.4 as it is very sluggish to drive doesn’t pick speed up moving off unless the gas pedal is down to the floor in which case you will only be doing about 18 miles to the gallon.

Peugeot 1007 2005

From time to time, especially when temperature gets below 0, I’ve got a problem with the sliding door - I can open it but it wont close. It just bounces and opens again. I let it run for 10 - 20 minutes until it gets hot inside and it solves the problem each time. About warranty issues - check with somebody who knows something about warranty’s because in my country, if they repair something on your car, the warranty for that part starts to run from the beginning. If you have a problem with opening the doors - bouncing and coming right back at you - this could be an issue - there is a small switch that doors hit when they are fully open. Its located at the and of the bottom rail. Over it is a slightly curved piece of plastic that in my case was broken and the door didn’t hit the "off" switch. Hope this helps.

Responses to this review
Dear Davor, I would like to thank you for you help on this site. I too have a door problem and after reading about the clip at the back of the door I looked at mine and it to was broken. I informed the garage that had it for a 2nd time and they seemed to think they knew about the clip. Well when I showed him where it was broken they didn’t have a clue as they didn’t seem to know where to look. So thank you again, it has been fixed. It is now with the garage for the 3rd time - air bag warning on the other door. I’m not too worried as I think the door is where they checked it on the other side and tried to compare it, so I think it’s only the motor. I have also found that after I got it back it would open and close on its own but I found that the door panel was loose and was able to push it in again, no problem. Apart from this I love my little car and as I have back problems it’s so easy to get into. Thanks again - Loz from Hertfordshire

Peugeot 107 urban semi auto 998cc 2006

This car is fab... I've done 42,000 miles so far & had no problems whatsoever. I just love it! Perfect for me to whizz up from Brighton & through London for work but also just big enough for my family (3 of us). Despite having a small boot, we can fit our weekly shopping in it; we’ve also got enough room to go away for the week. The back seats do fold down in two sections & we’ve (me & boy) even been able to get 2 large wardrobe flat packs in there (safely). It’s unlikely you’ll be able to speed uphill on the m25, especially the more of you get in there - but given the running costs and fun this little is, I'd definitely recommend it 100%.

The Peugeot Tepee has a common fault - I’ve had my anti-roll bar replaced after just 28000 miles - it was knocking - and so have all the taxi drivers who bought E7s. The good news is the guys at Peugeot have modified the anti-roll bar.

Peugeot 307 1.4 HDi 2002

Maybe I was lucky, but bought this in 2004 with no experience or preconceptions of Pugs at all, & am happy to say it’s been an almost trouble free nearly 5 years. Only problem has been the dreaded anti-pollution fault which went on for a fortnight. This was where I encountered my main gripe - the Peugeot dealer. I paid £80 for their all singing all dancing diagnostic test, to be told that half the fuel system was contaminated with the dodgy biodiesel I had been using & would need replacing at the princely cost of £1200!! However, on seeking a third & fourth opinion, the problem was actually confined to the fuel filter at only £120 - 3 years later, the allegedly ruined fuel system is still going strong. The car has buckets of room in the boot & the rear passenger seat. It’s £35 a year to tax, & the fuel economy is still impressive at nearly 90000 miles. It’s far more zippy on the motorway than a 1.4 diesel engine has any right to be. Common problem seems to be the indicator stalk sometimes not cancelling & the odd part of the carpeting working loose from under the seals - but quite frankly these are fairly minor gripes for what has been a damn good car to own. I would happily recommend a 307 to anyone, especially the diesel.

Peugeot 207 CC 2007

Generally speaking I am happy with my 207CC but there is a build-up of condensation/water in the front headlight unit. I went to the Dealer who suggested that it was malicious damage to the unit that has caused the problem. I am reluctant to accept this as there is no other sign of damage to the side of the car. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Peugeot Expert Tepee comfort l2 2008

I to am getting a lot of noise from the rear and when going over rough ground it sounds like the suspension is knocking on the front. Changing the headlight bulbs is an absolute nightmare when doing it for the first time, just not enough hand space. The side light was easy to get out but there is only room for 2 fingers to get the bulb back in. I managed to push the holder in to the light assembly - 20 minutes to get it out. I would like to be able to switch the seat belt warning alarm off. I have an issue with the single folding seat being on the drivers side because, as a taxi driver it means the rear passengers getting out on to the road. other than that a good car, spacious and comfortable (not as comfy as the 806 I have). I have recorded 31mpg doing local work and recorded 40mph to Southampton and back from Middlesbrough. It looks good and certainly catches the eye. I have the 8 seat model, although on the log book it’s a 9 seater. Peugeot tell me it will cost about 2k for the twin front seat. I have not had it serviced yet as it’s only been working since November and I have only covered 10k miles. Does anyone have the correct tracking setting for this car?

Peugeot 307 CC 2005

I’m having the same problem with the Depollution System. My garage has told me I need to replace the Exhaust Pressure Sensors - grand total of £405 - I agree with you; there is a manufacturer’s fault with this but it’s like banging your head against a brick wall with Peugeot. Other people on other forums are having this problem with their cars including the 207, 307 & 407. I’m going to write to Peugeot HO about this and the more people who do may help get something sorted out. Not happy at all.

Peugeot 107 Urban 2005

I’ve done 42,000 miles in my little 107 in 3 years and I have to say that in spite of my dislike for it’s smiley face when I first bought it, I cannot praise this car enough. It has never caused me any trouble, it is fast, cheap and very comfortable. To the point that on Monday, when my 3 year finance plan expires, I am getting a new one!

Peugeot 407 Coupe 2.7HDi GT 2006

"DISAPPOINTED". Suspension and steering so badly worn after 30,000 miles and 2 years old that the car was deemed unsafe to drive. These are major safety items that did not last until the 2nd scheduled service, and well short of the 1st MOT. Peugeot repaired all items under warranty, but what is going to happen after the warranty runs out?

Peugeot 407 163bhp 2.2 litre petrol 2007

I bought one of the last 163bhp 2.2 litre petrol 407 Saloons nearly new in 07. It’s the SE Luxury, so adds to the already comprehensive 407 equipment list with half leather, parking sensors and a CD multi-changer. 19,000 miles later and the car has proven faultless. It’s just been in for a set of front brake pads, but to be fair it’s a heavy machine and I can drive her rather enthusiastically. Otherwise, the only other problem has been a puncture - hardly the cars fault! The engine is arguably the best ever offered for the 407 - revvy and quick, but also flexible and capable of tickling along at the low revs on the torque. The 6 speed box helps me get an average combined figure of 36 mpg. So it’s quickish, long legged, with a sublime chassis and wonderfully confident steering, reliable (far more so than the Audi A4 it replaced) and comfortable in a way only the French can do. I’ve heard that diesel owners report frequent problems, but exchange the smoky old diesel for a proper petrol unit and it’s an incredible machine.

Peugeot 307 CC 1.6 Allure 2007

This has to be the worst car we have ever owned. It has been in the garage seven times!! Persistent fault with the depollution system cuts the power and you limp home!! Robins and Day Manchester have to be the worst service department, headed by the worst service manager I have ever had the misfortune come across!! This is a world wide fault with the car - Google it and see!! Most owners battle on for six months and then sell the car!! Head office will not help nor will Peugeot finance!! All p*****g in the same pot and the customers pay the price!! I paid £19,000 for the car and was offered £8,000 at 15 months old!! This is a nightmare!! I’m going to voluntary terminate when I’ve paid half and they can have their shed back!! DO NOT BUY ONE OF THESE PAPER MACHE CARS AT ANY COST OR ANY PRICE!!

Peugeot 407 Coupe GT 2008

I recently bought one after comparing it with the Volvo S80, Audi A4 2.0 S-Line and the Mercedes C class. To be fair, I rented a new Audi for a month and the new Merc C180 for a week while on holiday. Between the two German cars, the Merc wins hands down. I also had the Audi A5 in mind, however the Peugeot won out. My first look at the car was, I think, the decider. It’s different, it’s masculine, has a fantastic interior and great features. I would have paid significantly more for a German car with the same performance and features... and it’s great to be the driver of such a rare beauty. Performance, comfort, style and exclusivity in a fantastic package from Peugeot. I had never pegged myself as a Peugeot driver until I saw this in a window and decided on a whim to have a look, but now I’m convinced. It’s a great car...

Peugeot 307 SW 2002

Sorry to say that this is the worst car I have ever owned. I got it is June last year second hand and since then it has cost me a fortune. New ECU, fuel cap gauge and battery £1500 and a month in the garage! New brakes, tyres, exhaust and starter motor! Now both headlight bulbs have blown and are very hard to replace. And the indicators only work sometimes, also a clunky noise from under the front-post suspension. Hence I am trading it in for a reliable Ford Focus Estate tomorrow. I will never by a Peugeot again - I have had three and this is the worst!

Peugeot 407 SW Exectutive 136hdi 2005

Disappointing vehicle from start. £24,000 for Executive SW 136hdi , top of range >>>>> That`s where it ends. 800 miles and `STOP` break failure sign appeared. Took to dealers > reset computer and modified brake pads fitted. ONLY 2 MONTHS OLD ? 6 months passed and then emission/depollution control warning light appears > dealer did not have one in stock so cannibalised car in showroom. `Clonk` on front suspension > modified mounting washers fitted. One year on ABS / ESP light on , no sat /nav working. > reset computer, new ABS unit to o/s/f. Year 2 , ABS / ESP light on again so another 60 mile journey to dealers > reset computer , new ABS to n/s/f. Reversing warning system constant `bleep` when in reverse especially when wet > cleaned out units. Every time car is washed - - same trouble. Later year 2 the ABS / ESP light on again and no sat/nav > 60 mile to dealers, reset computer and new o/s/r ABS unit. Year 3 reversing aids again `constant bleep` and sometimes not working. 3 weeks BEFORE warranty expired ABS /ESP light on again, another trip to dealers > cleared fault, reset computer. 2 weeks AFTER warranty expired ABS / ESP light on again , another 60 mile trip. This time told that it needed a new ABS unit to n/s/r and that would be approximately £130. Having argued that the fault had been reported before the expiry date was told that they would have to speak to Peugeot and would get back to me. That was 10 months ago and despite phone calls to them still no phone call received to confirm acceptance from Peugeot of payment for repairs. Needless to say I have not bought another new vehicle from them and to date am still driving with the warning light still constantly on. Have driven to Ukraine and back and with several emergency stops in the past few months. Breaks seem perfectly OK with no `ill` effects. I now know that the ABS units suffer from getting dirty so a good blast of air could do wonders. Oh! and suspension still `clonks`. Good looking car but so many niggling faults. DEALERS ? This car must be their flagship for extracting money for warranty work or vulnerable customers with no mechanical or computing knowledge. It`s a pity that the PLUS`s don`t weigh more than the `MINUS`s. Having been in the motor trade and worked on Peugeot’s since 1967 it is somewhat disappointing that today`s models have so many common faults which apparently have not been overcome despite the many submitted reports. Would I buy another one????

Peugeot 207 1.4s 2006

Owned this car for 18mths now - quite pleased with the equipment level and the interior space - not so with the bordering on dangerous gutless engine. Up-hills and pulling out at junctions are not to be taken with a pinch of salt. Just had the 20k service done at the main dealer which was cheaper than taking it to a normal garage’ then came the new brake pads £115, and the cv boot at £200 which I thought would be covered under the warranty but no, as 20000 miles seems a bit low for it to need replacing so got in touch with customer services who aren’t interested putting it down to ’wear and tear’, anybody else had the cv boot problem?

Peugeot 307 2004

After a year of problems with air pollution warning light coming on, losing power etc. The dealer garage that were so friendly when they sold me the car now treating me as though I am mad! Never again.

Peugeot 207 CC 2004

I bought my first Peugeot in 2004. I just love driving it and get admiring looks. It is Flamenco Red with black leather interior. Never had any problems with this beautiful car. Just so smooth. Have done nearly 15000 miles now, so in order not to lose too much money am going to change it for a new Neysha blue. Can’t wait. Would not have any other car, its so stylish.

Peugeot 1007 2006

I have had my 1007 for almost a year now and generally find it a great little car with plenty of room inside for the driver and passenger, there is not so much room in the rear seats but then again it is only a super mini. There is however a big problem with the sliding doors which tend to have a mind of their own and close on their own accord, this is potentially a safety problem. It has been into the Peugeot dealer once already and the problem still exists, I am returning it to the garage for the second time and hopefully these problems will be solved before my warranty runs out in a few months. I know that if these problem persist after the warranty runs out I will be looking at a very costly bill to sort things out myself. I have read the reviews and the problems I have are not unique. This does seem to be a design fault.

Peugeot Boxer Motorhome 1997

Nothing but trouble, the driver’s door leaks and the wind noise is uncomfortable even at slowish speeds. The side door is very flimsy and leaks, back doors don’t fit and leak. 5th gear went in a few miles whilst in France and we had to drive home in 4th. Clutch pedal failed and I had to drive back from a weekend away with no clutch. Ps I am a 58 year old engineer and not prone to abusing mechanical things.

Peugeot 407 SW 2005

As others have said, a great car to drive:. I have a 40 mile journey to work along dual carriageway / motorway, and the car is a pleasure to drive. BUT it is marred by having had several faults (all covered by warranty, but still a PITA)... worst one, luckily only doing 5mph, the brake servo stopped... turned out to be a brake fluid leak into the servo. Also, not over-impressed with the level of customer support given by my garage... but that is probably no different from any other garage! With my constant high-speed driving, still get 44mpg in the 1.6HDi, which is nice... and can easily get over 50mpg if I go more gently!

Peugeot 308 2008

Here is the brand new Peugeot which has excellent sound isolation and comfortable suspension. An economic engine and automatic gearbox too...

Peugeot 206 1.4 HDI 2003

I adore my 206 - wouldn’t replace it for the world - £35 a YEAR for the tax, sailed through its MOT, and for a small car it’s really nippy and so pretty - fuel economy is amazing - even compared to the 1.3 fiesta I gave up for it. Love it, highly recommended!

Peugeot 407 Coupe 3.0 V6 2007

A car I had hankered after for a long time; making a mistake and buying a Mini Cooper S first, but sold that mighty quickly for the 407 Coupe. This is a fine, fine car and a good job we don’t all listen to the motoring pundits... it makes the exclusivity just that more special. The car succeeds in every department, from smooth driving and good performance, to the looks of the car; so very singular; not a bit like the other Germanic offerings. I feel that the interior is a genuine high point - especially with the grey leather, well-appointed and luxurious in a way that decent French cars always have been and it is so like being in the very able Citroen C6 with whom it shares so much. A commendable motor carriage.

Peugeot Boxer 2007

What a rubbish van, waste of money and time. Never ever buy this van......

Peugeot 307 110bhp Rapier 2002

Avoid Pug like the plague - nothing but problems from buying. Where to start with the faults?? Bought it on the Friday and on the proceeding Monday I had NO SPEEDO ELECTRICS ETC. Six months later "anti-pollution fault", limp mode mmmmmm aren’t we all happy with that Peugeot gem!! Be aware that all 2.0l diesel pugs have an additive that reduces the emissions and this is a wonder £400 to fill +VAT!!! They don’t tell you that when you buy it!!!! Buy at your own risk, Service and customer relations are SH1TE to say the least.

Peugeot 307 xsi 2004

Piece of sh*t!! Do not buy one - so many problems. Here’s a few - air-bag light is on constantly, pollen-filter warning comes on when the car wants and does not drive properly when it is on, CD changer is a joke and works when it feels like it, folding mirrors sometimes don’t work, passenger window works when it wants to and dealers are sh*t as well - never had a courtesy car no matter how much in advance you book - prices are a joke. NEVER BUY A PEUGEOT - NEVER BUY FRENCH - I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A FORD FOCUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Peugeot 207 2007

I bought a 1.4 207 sport almost 3 month ago it is my first car and is a great drive and also good on fuel. The stereo is great and the car looks great too. Recently, when I was out driving, a warning light came on saying de-pollution failure; the car has now become more sluggish and when I first start the engine it is bumpy until the engine heats up, could anybody tell me what is the cause of this and roughly how much it is to repair?

Peugeot 207 CC 2007

I have got the 1.6 engine. Every morning when starting the car from cold it makes noise like starter motor stays engaged, took it to dealer and they said this is normal for 207cc 1.6. Has anyone else had this problem... and it keeps stalling when dip clutch and cruise to traffic lights - very dangerous.

Peugeot 206 CC 2003

Just bought my 206cc on the 9th sept 08 and fell in love with it. Have noticed though, the bumpy feel when driving and manual says nothing about tyre pressure so have been on forum to that find out and saw lots more things to be aware of. Must say I am a little nervous now but she is a great buy for 03 plate and only 24,000 on clock. No fear of roof failing cos there’s no descent weather so I can put roof down. Definately a woman’s car. Small and compact and nippy.

Peugeot Boxer Motorhome. 2008

I have been waiting to replace my 2004 Peugeot Autocruise 2ltr HDi Mk2 Motorhome, for a new Peugeot 250x Autocruise Motorhome since 2006. Because of the water entry problems under the bonnet rusting all engine components, still not fixed with the various covers and replacement front windscreen rubbers fitted. Now problems with clutch judder and gearbox breaking up - there is no way I shall spend nearly £40k on a replacement motorhome, although I want to buy a new one and have the cash waiting. Perhaps I should now look at Ford etc.... Regards Terry Hart

Peugeot 407 SW 2007

Performance reports are generally fine... but beware.... in the first 6 months I’ve scraped the overhanging bonnet to bits and I’ve now smashed the fuel pipe and air coolant supply. What on? Speed bumps, drives, kerbs... in fact anything that sticks up slightly from the flat. It’s so low slung it hits everything.

Peugeot 207 1.6 Sport 2006

My car’s rev start shooting up and the car slows down if I try and go up hills. The dealer want to take out the gear box and examine the clutch. They say I will be liable and not the warranty if it turn out to be wear and and tear. However I have only driven 12,000 and never had any clutch problems with previous cars.

Peugeot 1007 HDi 1.4 sport 2006

I bought my 1007 three months ago because of the excellent fuel economy and 5 star crash rating. It is small but Tardis-like on the inside. The 2nd hand price was low (£6.2K) for a car with 15K on the clock and balance of 18 months manufacturers warranty. It is also loaded with extras; ESP, climate control, electric sunroof, automatic lights, windscreen wipers, etc. It’s slower than my last car (a Merc 220cdi), but not as slow in respect of real world motoring as some of the professional reviewers suggest. Besides, I’m most interested in getting from a-b in comfort and safety with the least possible expense, moreover it feels good driving a ’green car’. Don’t be put off by the negative reviews. If you can live with being a bit ’different’ you’ll get a lot of used car for your money.

Peugeot 207 1.4 S 90HP 2006

Performance-wise up to the standard of my previous 206s if not slightly better but generally a poorly designed car from a visibility point of view. The front roof pillars can hide a car especially when you are waiting to turn right etc. The dashboard trim is an aluminium frame which reflects badly on the windscreen when driving into the sun as does anything else on the dashboard. The windscreen is too raked, this is what is the cause of the problem, similarly the demisters don’t clear the screen because of this. Below the bumper is a plastic trim which hangs too low, and comes adrift every time I try to drive up a reasonable inclined slope, particularly at the Peugeot dealer I have it serviced at!

Peugeot 1007 2007

Only had the car a month already having problems with the doors. The one door will open and then shut straight away giving you seconds to get in before it comes back on you. What a pain, love every thing else about it just think the doors are stupid!!

Peugeot 407 SW SW 136bhp Sport pack 2005

Bought used from dealer. A really nice car potentially spoiled by niggly faults. Carries five adults with luggage in comfort and is smooth and fast on the motorway. Very good steering and fairly good handling on A and B roads. Good acceleration when needed. Braking is also very very good. Smooth and refined inside with climate control audio system and trip computing all helpful. fairly economical, can do over 50 mph on a long slowish run. Even at high motorway way speeds delivers over 40mpg. Achilles heel seems to be low level niggles - warning lights for lights alert when all is ok. Reverse is great but again false warnings. Front ball joints wore at 30,000 but extended warranty took care. Roof failed and needed re sticking but warranty again came to rescue. Particulate filter needed unblocking. You wonder what will go wrong next which takes away from the other excellent aspects of this classy looking, safe, fast, versatile car.

Peugeot 207 CC 2008

I got this car in Jan 08 after trading in my convertible VW Beetle. The first 2 weeks were fine, then it rained... it leaks in through the roof where it joins the windows and has been in to the dealer on numerous occasions. According to the dealer, all convertibles leak and it is what I should expect!! Apparently this is what warranty is for. The level of service at the dealership is terrible and to top it off, the car has now developed a serious gearbox fault. I am currently in a battle with Peugeot to get my money back on the car. Does anyone else have a leaky 207cc? if so, you are more than welcome to contact me: karen.alabaster@kier.co.uk

Peugeot 206 CC 1.6 HDI Allure 2 dr cab 2006

Delighted with this car. Very nice to drive. Lovely leather seats. Fuel consumption excellent as is road tax and insurance band. Only negative thing I would say is no spare wheel as you get an aerosol canister to pump up tyre to get you to a garage. This will be fun when I get a puncture.

Peugeot 206 CC 2001

The roof on the car worked fine when purchased and continued doing so for a further two weeks and then it decided to stay stuck in the open position!! A complicated and intensely frustrating manual closing technique was followed! Forty quid just for Peugeot to look at it and a quote ( I kid you not) of £1300 to fix the roof....but the silly sales guy showed me how to open and close it manually, taking about ten seconds! So until I have a few grand spare, this is the way I have to enjoy the summer motoring! Beware!! don’t even get me started on the leaking windows......

Peugeot 807 2.0 hdi GLX 2003

Had the 807 from new having had the 806 previously. The 807 is a huge improvement in terms of comfort and style. First eleven months was dogged with a regular recurring problem which almost saw us hand the car back. Peugeot finally identified and fixed it and it has been great to drive since. Economy around town slightly disappointing but is good on longer runs. Five years and 34,000 miles on some od the trim is looking pretty worn and tatty but overall the car has provided excellent service. When it’s time to update another 807 will be right near the top of the list.

Peugeot 207 1.4 Petrol 2006

During hot days when ambient temperature exceeds approx. 23 C and car is parked outdoor in a way that sun heats passenger cabin the following happens: When the driver starts the engine a message pops up on the display : "Airbags(s) or pretensioner seat belt(s) faulty", at the same time the airbag symbol comes on. The indications above remain on until the cabin temperature falls so the next time the engine is started (and cabin temperature is low) no fault occurs. This fault is independent of the state of passenger airbag (on/off) by the key switch. They changed the multi-message LCD head up display but no luck, the problem persists when hot.

Peugeot 407 2004

This is the worst car I have ever bought. Everything has gone wrong; the fly wheel has gone twice, turbo two times and the engine management light is always on with a dopollution problem. Everything costs the earth to replace and no one wants to touch it as it has an engine management system that only main dealers seem to have all the software for. STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS

Peugeot Expert Tepee 2.0HDI LEISURE 2008

We have had our Tepee for just over a week. It looks good, is nice to drive and most of all, I can get my 2 sons in plus my disabled daughter as it has been adapted as a wheelchair accessible vehicle. We are able to get everything we need in to it as it is nice and roomy and it certainly makes life a lot easier for our family!! We do have one snag with it though..... after a week of having it, the battery went flat and I had to call the AA out. Took it to our local Peugeot dealer who said they needed the whole car to see where the drain was but as we were on our way to take my daughter to the hospice for respite, and it started ok, we decided to not to leave it as. However, again, 3 days later, the damn battery was flat again and had to get my sister to jump-start it...not impressed!! Needless to say, it shall be going in to the dealer on Monday morning (tomorrow!).... fingers crossed that’ll be the only issue we have with our new car! Shame as we love it!

Peugeot Bipper 2008

Nice, complete and handy car. But... it consumes 6 litres every 100km instead of 4.5. Suspension like a rally car!! You feel every small bump in the road. This message is from Holland.

Peugeot 206 CC 2-litre SE 2004

Second 206cc owned. Car covered just 15000 from new. Already had internal oil leak fixed under warranty, new roof sensor and new middle and rear box, and just about needing 2 front tyres. Worst of all, at 14000 miles had to have new cam followers fitted out of warranty - £900 dealer price. Car looks great and no roof problems but sounds rough, handles poorly (heavy steering) and has a tendency to show no oil when in fact the dipstick is full!

Peugeot 207 207S 1.4 2008

The car is great except for the performance. The car will not go up hills very well. If you are pulling off up even the slightest gradient, it goes fine in first gear but then slows down completely in second. It is very dangerous!! as I have already discovered. We may have to get rid of the car which is only 2 months old, what a waste of money. The performance is comparable to a old 1.1 Fiesta.

Peugeot 307 SW 307sww hdi xsi 136 2004

A nice car, reliable and fairly quick once your up to forty miles per hour. Like all cars, not good value for money when bought new but a great buy second hand. I bought mine new and it’s been A1, no problems at all and totally reliable. At four years old I’ve still only covered 16,000 miles so its really not even broken in yet. I like Peugeot’s and I’d certainly buy another one but I intend keeping this one for a good while yet.

Peugeot 307 Estate 110 hdi 1.6 2006

I’ve had this car from new with only 22 miles on the clock, car looks good from all angles, cruise crontrol is a bonus and handy on the long drives. It has been back to the main dealer for silly things ie wipers hit each other/ and throttle housing leaks oil, peugeot has missed out few things like an arm rest and a place to put a pair of glasses, also 1st and 2nd gear seems to grind. on the whole not a bad car but I won’t have another one!

Peugeot 1007 1.4 HDI Sport 2006

The pug was bought as part exchange at the local dealer. Liked the quirky looks and ,with the diesel costs on the rise , the claimed 72.3 mpg was the straw that broke the camels back. After 3 months of ownership I’m still trying to get the mpg above the magical 70. When thrashed it returns 55 and when driven frugally 64mpg. As it is still under warranty the local Peugeot dealer has (with no quibble at all) replaced the matt black covering on the upper doors and the CD player as it skips when driving down slightly bumpy roads. The electric doors have so far been no trouble and the driving position for a 6ft 4 bloke ,comfy. I took it on a 450 mile drive last month and the seats are barely adequate as the zips for the changeable covers tend to dig into your butt. ABS is a godsend in such a short wheelbase car and never attempt to turn off the ESP as it will bite you. Having never had auto lights and windscreen wipers I can say that I can live with them but wouldn’t pay for the extras. Overall a nice above the average super mini but don’t expect electrifying performance as its too heavy!

Peugeot 607 2.0-litre HDi 2004

Bought 2nd hand model this year, at a fraction of the cost. With 3 children the interior space is great and the 3 point middle belt excellent. Very smooth ride, nice engine and the toys make it a great package.

Peugeot 207 CC THP 150 GT 2007

Great car, can’t knock it AT ALL! Comfortable on long journeys, plenty of power, handles fantastic, and wow... when the roof’s down and the sun shining it’s heaven I got an onyx black Peugeot 207cc THP 150 GT, from brand new, 2 miles on clock. I got it in December 2007 and it’s now June 2008, I’ve done just over 3,000 miles and I can’t say I have any dislikes, it’s a great runner, sooooo smooth, pretty good on fuel too; if you don’t push it to hard. It’s a great cruiser, I loves it to bits.

Peugeot 307 SW 1.6HDi 110 2008

This my second SW - my first was a Mark 1 and ate tyres, flywheels and discs, although it never actually let us down. My family loved the glass roof, the comfortable seats and the versatility, and so took a chance on the Mark 2, having believed the dealer’s reliability improvements hype. So far so good, because at 6,000 miles, the car’s had no faults at all. The Mark 2 feels a very different car - less road noise, better build (and equipment) and handling - probably because of the lighter engine. The 16 valve diesel engine is superb - smooth, quiet and with a beautifully integrated turbocharger - no lag at all (if you really want turbo lag, try a Skoda Roomster!). To my mind, the 308Sw’s one of the best looking cars on the road (much nicer than the gawky 308SW). Fuel consumption is around 42mpg overall, although I believe that diesels can take thousands of miles to fully bed in - that’s 20% better than our old 2.0HDi 110

Peugeot 407 Coupe GT

Love the car. Great on the motorway or on the A roads. So quiet for a diesel. The doors are huge so when in a tight parking spot, I have found it easier to put down the window than open the door to get out then just keep the lock button pressed on the remote for 2 - 3 seconds and that closes the windows and locks the doors.

Peugeot 307 SW SE 2005

When writing my review I forgot to mention the most annoying fault ever: It BLOWS bulbs with unbelievable frequency; every week at least one bulb needs replacing.

Peugeot 307 SW SE 2005

I drive a Peugeot 307SW 1.6HDI 110bhp. The car is used as a Taxi. The 307 has proved to be a spacious, well appointed car with few faults. The main gripe I have with the 307 range is the lack of lumbar support. If you suffer with back problems this car will not do you any favours.Faults: elec window switch on drivers door only operates drivers window. Heater regulator packed up. Exhaust cat anti block fluid runs out at 80 to 100k dealer job expensive. A/C lost gas reason not yet known. Thats about the faults. The good. Fun to drive, flexible torquey engine. Fantastic on fuel. Handles well enough. Overall easy to live with and own. Great pity theres no lumber support.

Peugeot Expert Tepee E7 se longwheelbase 2007

Having similar problem with E7 SE, creaking noise coming from offside area after about 4,000 miles or 2 months. Peugeot dealer renewed track rod arm and still problem so they then said it was a problem with lubrication on suspension. The dealer did that and still problem exists. Vehicle has now done 12,000 miles and dealer has ordered suspension unit; waiting for delivery of same. Will let you know if this cures problem.

Peugeot 107 Urban 2007

Do not buy this for your children!!! The 107 is economical and covered by a three year warranty which is great but at the end of the day its an elderly ladies car. Other than its lack of style the 107 is ridiculously light and when there is a slight gale blowing you best stay in the slow lane of the motorway or have cat like reactions because you could be headed for calamity. When it comes to storage space the boot is non existent so its no good for shopping or carrying anything more than a carrier bag. All in all the 107 along with its siblings the C2 and Aygo are not for anyone below the age of 50, sorry but its not practical, its not functional and its certainly not cool.

Peugeot 206 glx 90 hdi 2.0 2001

I have just got a 206 after previously driving a Zafira. The reason for getting the 206 was the fuel economy which is really fantastic, ten pounds worth of diesel has taken me to places that would have cost twenty five, thirty quid in the other car. My main worry with having a young family was space but yet again; pleasantly surprised, two child seats in the back; no worries and there is room for a child in between them. The drive is excellent and, more importantly, fun. Great extras i.e cd multichanger and climate control. Cannot recommend highly enough get one!

Peugeot 407 2.7L Executive 2006

I purchased this top of the range model at a great price with only 12K on the clock. The drive is magnificent and the engine is full of torque at all stages and has blistering acceleration. The car handles superbly and once you get used to the multitude of switches on the main console it really is quite simple to operate. The SAT Nav is competent and the handfree phone system is superb and allows me to be far more productive on the road than with a Bluetooth connection to a Blackberry. Front tyre wear is typical from this kind of vehicle and a price worth paying for the shear exhilaration of the ride. Always had Volvo before but the test drive convinced me there was another kind of driving experience to be had. So far nothing to complain about. Will definitely buy again as this car is great value for money and safety features tick all the boxes for family protection.

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.

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 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.

Peugeot 4007 2.2 HDI 2007

A good and reliable japanese crossover with a BIG French lion badge. Very good for family use, weekend shopping and offs. Can survive moderate offroad (tried last w/e). Original Cheshire cate design . The diesel engine is outstanding in torque. Interior is practical and and appropriate. Still a head turner in the streets. 5 months - no disappointments. Had different cars (Honda, SaaB, VW) and this is my first Peugeot (Mitsu). Now thinking about another Peugeot for my wife (Maybe 308). Peugeot - drives!

Peugeot 407 1.6 HDi 110 SE 4dr 2007

As fabulous to drive as it is to look at. I’m so pleased I’ve taken the plunge, after initially being worried about depreciation, as this is just a pleasure to drive. The drive is so smooth and it’s so responsive to the slightest touch of the pedal, it’s also an extremely safe car, which for a family car was a huge selling point. Yes, it will depreciate more than others but reasonable running costs, low emissions and the pure enjoyment I’ll get from driving it makes it well worth every penny.

Peugeot 4007 2.4 CVT 2008

Outstanding design! Really have fallen in love! Perfect in driving and comfort for 5 pax. A bit noisy but that doesn’t matter, good music makes it. Stylish and something different to all these dull Japanese crossovers in the streets. I call her JOKER (remember Jack Nicholson in Batman?) :)) Every morning admire it and enjoy driving!

Peugeot 407 SW SE 2005

When I first bought the car I thought it was fantastic. Everyone commented on the great shape of it, almost hiding the fact that it was an estate. Boot space was not great but enough for the family. However, things went downhill from there with the car’s reliability. First off, there was a depollution system fault and the cruise control failed. Both fixed under warranty. Then the end of one of the tyre valves snapped off, obviously requiring Pug to fix it due to the pressure sensor. Then one of the tyres developed a bulge, and when the car went in for its service (at a Pug main dealer) they didn’t have any replacement tyres and so left it on the forecourt for me to replace it with a spare! Then another tyre value end snapped off. Then the front suspension failed, but to replace that they had to replace the ABS sensors which were out of stock at the factory for about six weeks, so the car was off the road for this time. So far, however, all fixed under warranty. Then at 48,000 miles the clutch suddenly failed - it went from working perfectly to fully burnt out over the course of about a mile. This time Pug said that it was probably just wear and tear - despite being well under the normal wear for a clutch and driven mostly on motorways - and so they refused to pay for the replacement. Cost £1k to replace the clutch kit. Then there was a split in the CV boot which cost another £200 to fix, again not under warranty. Finally the electric sun blind failed, and when I took it in just before the warranty expired they said that they needed to get someone else to have a look at it a week later. When I took it back, they tried to claim that the warranty had expired. All in all, a great looking car and I may have been unlucky, but the reliability of mine was appalling and the after sales service from Pug was similarly poor. I am now looking to buy a Mondeo Estate as it is winning loads of awards.

Peugeot 206 2001

We bought this car for our 19 year old who was desperate to own a Peugeot 206 (we couldn’t afford the huge extra cost of the new shaped mini which is what he would have preferred! This car has taken a real beating, it has been hammered over road humps, parked in places you wouldn’t want to leave a more valuable car and generally done pretty well considering its main driver is now a hefty 18 stones and 6.4 inches tall; not quite the size the car was designed for. It was walloped in the back when we’d juts got it, and the car stood up amazingly well compared to the BMW that drove into the back of it. This confirmed our opinion that although it was cheaper to kit out an 18 year old with a banger, buying a newer car with good safety features was well worth the money. Our family cars are a top of the range SAAB and top of the range Jaguar but to be honest, leaving aside the mess ( which is nothing to do with the manufacturer, I enjoy driving the 206 just as much as the other two and compared to them the fuel economy is excellent. Its now done over 40,000 (it had 10,000 when we bought it) and in that time the only major thing that has needed adjusted was the steering propellers and double replacement of all four tyres ... but we believe that’s largely down to the fact our son was living in a road with vicious speed humps. So this car has been driven pretty hard and stood up well.

Peugeot Expert H1 L2 136 BHP 2007

Radio turns off after 5 minutes of stopping. So called ’economy mode’ have to start the engine and turn off again to get another 5 minutes. Some people do sit in the vehicle for lunch etc. and might like to listen to the radio! Only reason I can see is that Peugeot might like to sell a lot of starter motors and batteries in the future. Will never buy a Peugeot again.

Peugeot Expert Tepee Taxi E7 (MPV) 2007

Could anybody tell me why anti roll bar (d bushs) bushs are collapsing after twelve thousand miles .Have waited three months for problems with vibrations and noise to be sorted out? Also how many taller drivers have difficulty with seat position, seat swab not long enough? Any else with a problem, I would like to know, as Peugeot UK very quiet

Peugeot 307 CC 2005

I adore this car...looks and feels good to drive and though Jeremy Clarkson describes the rear as looking like a melted hot water bottle...(!!) w...e...l..l ...this car does not encourage me to stay at home with cocoa. Easy handling and definitely gets me where I’m going in comfort and with ease. Roof is a wonderful piece of engineering if Jeremy you are not so old and cynical and the Baylon red is to die for. Pricey to fill but not as often as others and your certainly have to take out a mortgage to pay for it - unlike other cc’s, Go get one and enjoy....

Peugeot 1007 1.6 sport 2006

My brother bought the 1007 sport with 2 tronic transmissions because of the sliding doors. He is disabled and found it was easier to get in. Apart from the doors we both think the car is a nightmare especially the transmission which, because of the ’dead spots’, is downright dangerous. Performance is poor and fuel consumption far too high. Also there are too many blind spots. I’m not surprised that there are very few of these models on the roads. The last one I saw was broken down! The driver’s sliding door jammed one day fortunately whilst at the dealer being serviced. We have also had total transmission failure for several minutes.

Peugeot 207 Sport 2007

After purchasing a fine looking Peugeot 207 Sport from our local Peugeot dealer just a few weeks ago, I’m sad to say that with only 200 miles and 2 weeks motoring the car is back with the dealer & off the road. The fault appears as a pollution system error showing up via the cars management system which took the dealer 5 working days to admit they didn’t know what was going on & ended up down loading the data to Peugeot direct for their review- why not that do on the 1st day I wonder. The manufacturer’s response and the dealer’s constant excuses why the fault cannot be sorted are very unimpressive- so far. May be we should have stuck with a Clio!

Peugeot Expert Tepee LWB 2.0 Leisure 8 seater 2007

What a beast, I love our new Tepee. We had ordered a brand new one, but due to manufacturing delays decided to go with a second hand one, which incidentally was near impossible to find. So much room for all our family and all the luggage that goes with us. Extremely comfortable, plenty of width and leg room. Driving our Tepee is super not one iota like a van. All the adjustments that can be made to the driving position make it so comfortable too. Although filling it up with diesel for the first time was a bit of a shock (£85.00), the MPG is around 32 and that is all short journeys taxiing the children around. I recommend the Tepee to anybody that will listen! For a family it is the must have mode of transport that puts all the others in the dark.

Peugeot 207 1.4 Sport 2007

I have had this car for 1 year now. The first fault that occurred was that the speedometer just stopped working and dropped to 0 as did the rev counter when I was doing around 70mph on a duel carriageway. This was down to the EMU which needed to be replaced. After much quarrelling with the dealership I had bought the car from just 3 weeks previously I manage to get a courtesy car for free rather than paying around £11 a day for it. This was a good thing because it took 5 weeks to fix it rather than the estimated 5 days. Then the seatbelt warning light would come on intermittently with a warning saying that there was an airbag/seat belt pretension system failure. 3 trips back to the dealership and (fingers crossed) the problem seems to be solved. Finding fuel economy quite poor although that could be due to my driving! Having said all that, I still love the car and am planning to get the 1.6HDi within the next 6 months.

Peugeot Partner Combi Escapade 2007

Fun to drive, practical, economical & very robust. The makeover in terms of light grills, under body engine protection & highered & refined suspension is great. Not only looks tough but is car park friendly & smacks of an offroader. Superb value for money retails at 12062 but haggling gets it under £10k!! These cars are far more likely to become sought after than its more feminine looking cousin, the Berlingo.

Peugeot 207 2006

The car is lovely and picks up speed well however there seems to be a fault with the lights - its far to easy to turn them off by accident when switching between dipped headlights and full beam, I found myself going 50mph on a dark country road at night with no lights on and so having to do an emergency stop, it has happened to me twice in 2 weeks and also twice to my husband, its very dangerous, I don’t recommend it to anyone.

Peugeot 407 Coupe GT Diesel V6 2007

Good Looking outside ,Comfortable inside with plenty of room for a Coupe. Very Quiet on the move drives like a car costing twice as much.Also for a car of it’s size very economical. Very Impressed.

Peugeot 207 Van 1.6 HDi 2007

I previously owned the 206 van and when it came to replacing it I chose to stay with Peugeot because I had been so happy with the 206. I plumped for the 1.6 HDi diesel for the fantastic fuel economy. The 207 van is essentially a super mini-style van. On the downside, the expected MPG of 63 is difficult to achieve, you will be looking at mid 50s at best. All in all, a decent van.

Peugeot 407 SW 2.0 HDi 136 GT 5dr 2006

Very nice to drive, I do on average 30,000 miles pa so I wanted something comfortable and the 407 SW is definately that. Good family car too. If I could change one thing it would be the long nose which has proved tricky once or twice with steep ramps but all in all a good car.

Peugeot 4007 2.2 HGi GT 5dr 2007

This is a very nice car indeed.Peugeot have designed something that looks a little bit different from everyhting else and it drives very well too. I recently test drove this and whilst I was impressed with the car’s handling and level of comfort I needed a car that would suit a family of six. Unfortunately, although it’s supposed to be a seven seater it really is better suited to five and I think Peugeot have made an error in trying to cram in extra seating that isn’t really roomy enough making it impractical for my needs. If I had needed a five seater however I would have been tempted.

Peugeot Partner 1.9D 600L 2007

Lovely little van to drive and a surprisingly quiet and smooth ride. Very smart looking and ample space for my stock runs. Very pleased I chose this van and I look forward to driving it for a very long time.

Peugeot 807 2.0 HDi 120 S 5dr 2006

This has been an excellent car for us and our 3 kids. Never even considered before how practical sliding rear doors are for getting kids in and out especially when in tight supermarket spaces. Very spacious and the seats are very easy to remove and replace. Good handling and fine drive. Very pleased.

Peugeot Boxer 250S 2.0 HDi 2007

I’ve driven the pre 2002 Boxer and now this one and I’m pleased that Peugeot have improved on a good product rather than trying to reinvent it. Everything is here that you need with a few nice extras. The cabin is much more comfortable, the drivers seat is multi adjustable and the steering column also can be adjusted slightly, which allows a very comfortable driving position. Everything else is pretty much as you’d expect and that’s just how it should be.

Peugeot 207 CC 1.6 HDI 110 GT CC 2007

Smooth, powerful ride and bags of fun. This car is roomy and a real beauty.

Peugeot 308 1.6 HDi 110 S 5dr 2007

A really nice car. The 308 has sporty lines and comes with some nice standard kit. Quite good on fuel and nice and quiet engine. My only gripe is the driving position, why is everything set so far over to the left? Come on Peugeot, this should be a great car not just a nice car.

Peugeot 206 Van 1.4 HDi 2003

I have a small computor repair business and needed something secure and not quite as big as most vans so this vehicle was perfect for me. It’s very economical on fuel as well giving 52mpg on average. Good safety equipment as well as the security features and drives very nicely. The only negative I’d say about this van is the drivers seat is a little unforgiving on your seat if driving for long periods of time but that’s easily rectified with a padded seat cover. Very solid and reliable little van.

Peugeot 307 Estate 2003

Car looks great and have had no failures as yet but the gearing is poor. Have to be in first gear even on approach to roundabouts if not it will just stop! Power lets it down. Has 5 gears and hardly ever get into fifth as there is no accelaration. A very comfortable car with loads of room and great storage, enough for a family with babies! I have the 2.0l diesel model and it is quite heavy on the fuel on very short trips but not too bad on longer journeys Overall a lovely car but poor performance with poor gear ratio.

Peugeot 207 SW 2006

I bought my Peugeot 207 sport from new having been seduced by the smooth lines and the seemingly superior quality of the car. It looked the goods! The first fault to become evident was the safety belt/air bag warning light. This activated intermittently but because no fault could be detected on the diagnostic machine it was considered perfect. The car has been returned seven times for this fault, sometimes within two hours of being ’fixed’. Hopefully, after much threatening of legal action the problem has been resolved. But hey! - I have only had the car for two days after a three week stay in the garage so who knows! After a two month very gentle running in period (I do approx 6 miles per day) the car seat cover split from top to bottom, covering me and the rest of the seats with white fluff! Into the garage again and it was when I was checking the car on its return that I discovered the mismatched doors- one colour coded and one with a black stripe- different at least! In addition to this the car has been returned for four manufacturer’s recalls for various items. One satisfied customer? Not really. I wouldn’t buy another Peugeot if they had a 50% discount!

Peugeot 306 1999

No review submitted.

Peugeot 1007 2006

We got our car brand new it has been in the garage with the same fault with the sliding doors over 7 times before they found the fault.

Responses to this review

You didn’t say what the fault was in the end???? - Caroline Willoughby from England

What is the common fault with these doors? My passenger door refuses to open via the fob or switch and the Peugeot dealer can’t find the problem using diagnostics! Well they probably could for £350 extra! - Kim Anders from Lancashire

Peugeot 1007 1600cc Sport 2007

I purchased a 1007 1600cc sport in June 2007 and to date it has been the perfect car for me with easy access and easy parking. This latest version has smooth gear changing in auto or paddle shift , there is plenty of room for rear seat passengers . The performance on this model is pretty good, I am very pleased with it.

Peugeot 1007 1.4 HDi Sport 2007

Love the sliding doors, great when I’m playing taxi to my daughter’s whims. Plenty of room inside, smooth pleasant ride. Five stars from Euro NCAP, great result for such a small car.

Peugeot 206 SW SW 2006

This is the best supermini estate, far better in my opinion than the Skodia Fabia. If it’s an economical drive that you’re looking for then the diesel is the only choice.

Peugeot 107 1.0 Urban 2006

I have had 4,000 trouble-free miles in my 107. It gives such ease of mind knowing that every time I set foot within the car I am almost guaranteed a jouney with no difficulties. The 107 does about 50 miles to the gallon and insurance is also cheap. If you are looking for a runaround, maybe for your wife, son or daughter then this is perfect.

Peugeot 307 SW 1.6 diesel 2007

This is kind of in between an estate and a MPV. It fits my family of six well and is very, very big inside. The drive itself is really good, smooth and comfortable with decent suspension.

Peugeot 1007 1.6 16V SE 3dr

This is a wonderful little car and the sliding doors are far from gimmicky as they make getting the kids out of the back a lot easier in ever increasing tight parking spaces. It offers brilliant fuel economy and is very easy to drive. I think it’s very well priced and haven’t found anything to fault it so far.

Peugeot Partner Combi 1.6 HDi Escapade

Fabulously practical car. Great for ferrying the kids around and brilliant for piling in stock for car boot sales, which my wife and I do every Sunday. Very good and easy to drive and nice and easy on fuel too. Nice big windows mean that visibilty is excellent and you can seat 5 adults comfortably. The interior does look a bit plasticy and there’s no getting away from the van shape design. Looks aren’t this cars strong point but if you can overlook them then this is a wonderfully flexible vehicle.

Peugeot 607

I bought my 607 at 3 years old for a fraction of the original £26,000 list price. The car has lots of space, good ride & great handling.

Peugeot 407 Coupe V6 HDi

Beautiful car to look at and very enjoyable to drive but can be a pig to park (there are parking sensors but you have to find a space long enough first)! Other than that minor gripe I’m loving this car and the looks I get when I’m driving it.

Peugeot 207 1.4 M Play

Picked up the car 2 weeks ago, and for the price it is a bargain. 1.4 engine pickes up well, great on fuel and also looks the part. Stereo system is great also and more importantly, feels safe to drive and easily fits 3 kids in the back.

Peugeot 307 Estate 1.6 HDi 110 S 5dr

When it’s good it’s fantastic, very easy on fuel, bags of space and handles extremely well, however, this is not the most reliable car and has been back 5 times in the past 2 years for a number of mechanical failures. Such a shame. I won’t be buying another.

Peugeot 607 3.0 V6 SE Auto

An extremely smooth ride!! Not one really for keen drivers as steering is a little detatched and definitley has that Luxo-Barge feel about it when going around sharper corners. A higher powered diesel engine would make it a much better prospect.

Peugeot 206 2.0 HDI D Turbo

If you are going to get a 206 in diesel form then it has to be the Hdi turbo diesel!! It’s great to drive, swift and economical and whilst you may think you have saved money by buying or leasing the standard non-turbo 1.9D life is just too short to be honest.

Peugeot 206 1.9D LX 3dr

I’ve had my 206 since October last year and I’ve really enjoyed driving it, but I’m not sure when the time comes that I’d buy another. My main gripe is the noise it produces when going in excess of 60mph – very loud! Other than that it is a good car and I can’t fault its reliability.

Peugeot 206 CC 1.6 16v S 2 dr

LEAKY WINDOWS! That’s all I’m going to say about this car.

Peugeot 207 1.6T 150 GT 3 dr

I’ve only had my 207 for 2 months but I am more than happy with it’s performance. It’s a really smooth drive and very responsive. Looks really good too. Really pleased.

Peugeot 307 CC 2.0 16v 140 S 2 dr

This is a very good buy for the money, It looks the business and is an enjoyable drive. Maybe not quite the power of a BMW or Audi but definitely fun and highly recommended.

Peugeot 307 2.0 HDI 110

As you would expect from Peugeot this car delivers an excellent ride without the hard jarring 'sports' suspension of it's German counterparts. The diesel is the one to have as it is torquey and keen to accelerate whilst the petrol engines tend to be thrashy and feel a little underpowered lower down the rev range. High quality feel to the cabin too!

Peugeot 307 CC 2.0 HDi Sport

Good points - Engine, handling, quality feel (with leather interior at least), fuel economy (40+ in daily commute), equipment levels.

Bad points - Rear seats for kids only, driving comfort awful (I am currently seeing a chiropractor to repair my back).

Overall - Good car badly let down by lack of support in the front seats. So bad I returned after 10 months of a 12 month PCH.

Peugeot 407 SV

I bought this car because I loved the the look of it - the ride is a smooth one, visibility is excellent and it is very, very comfortable.I also thought that the price was very reasonable and that you get a lot of car for your money.
