Peugeot 1007 (2005 - 2009) 1.4 Dolce 3d (2006/06) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Hmmm not sure... that im too lazy to open the doors? It stands out though as its soo rare.

What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?

My mates mock me cos its a bit of an old womens car but then it is technically my mums car. Her friends like it though.

Would you buy this car again and why?

Unless there was another good contract on offer. Otherwise no as the boot is too small; its expensive to buy outright and the doors will go wrong.

What are you likely to buy next?

Something a bit more normal like a fiesta/polo/corsa etc

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchise

Did you buy this car new?

Yes

What price did you pay?

£0

When did you buy the car?

January 2006

Did you get a good deal and why?

Yup. Excellent contract hire offer.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Excellent conract hire offer. £99 deposit/ £99 month for 3 years

What was the dealer like?

Has been good about repairs although the car is so rare the mechanics didnt quite no how to fix the thing. Always provided with courtesy car and overall service has been good.

What's it like to drive?

Light steering makes it good for town but not too great for feedback. Ride seems ok but the 8v 1.4 sounds a bit gruff sometimes and struggles with the heavy design.

What's it like to park?

Quite a narrow/short car and light steering make it easy to park. Visibility is average.

Have you had any problems with the car?

The water pump blew after 2500 miles but was replaced under warranty. The electric doors play up now and again by randomly closing or not opening at all. Dealer seems to have fixed it though. Oh and an Aircon fault.

What's most practical about your car?

The doors! They are excellent when parked at the supermarket etc. Oh and the removable seat covers that can be chucked in the washing machine of they get a bit grubby.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

The doors!
