For family drivers who want flexibility and style, the Peugeot 307 SW provides a welcome solution. It is one of the most easy to drive cars of its class on the market with a long wheelbase, the ability to carry up to seven passengers and a choice between a petrol engine and three economical diesel units. It’s the interior of the Peugeot 307 SW that’s particularly striking however, with airline style fold-away tables and plenty of storage compartments. The panoramic glass roof of the 307 SW is sure to impress front and rear passengers alike with an invigorating boost of space and light.

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 307 SW envy estate 2004

A good all round car. I’ve owned for mine for 4 weeks and a clunking, creaking, rattling noise from under the bonnet is the only fault so far. Depends on how smooth one drives. Any ideas?

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.

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 Â£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 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 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 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 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.
