Great value for money. Go for the later 16v for better performance.

Low expenses, good MPG, Peugeot labour pricey. £300+ for clutch!

On the road
Driving
Fun drive, great handling, smooth ride, but sluggish off the mark.
Performance
Quite nippy, but 16v would be better for 1st/2nd gear performance. 3rd is punchy for overtaking. Brakes not the most effective I've used.

Living with it
Reliability
No problems at all. Starts from cold all the time.
Image
Sporty looking, smooth ride, excellent steering and handling.
Comfort
Lovely cabin. Lower back not supported enough, though. Pedals close together, no rake adjustment on steering.
