    I'm happy with the straight diesel. No doubt the DT woiuld be a big improvement.

    We like it but I have to admit it's not as nice as the 306.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Very comfortable in the front, but rear seats cramped when front seats set back.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    Ours had an alarm fitted.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    I haven't used Peugeot service due to age of car and the high cost involved. A local garage does an excellent and cost effective job.

  • Problems and Ownership

    None at all.

    Other

    Rear shocks recently replaced - took ages to do as access is difficult. Noise from front wheel - found front brake caliper had seized and ruined a new set of pads. Had to have a complete new caliper fitted. First repair costs in months.
