Peugeot 207 CC (2007 - 2014) 1.6 THP (156bhp) GT 2d (2010/60) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

That I like a car to have good looks and be fun to drive.

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

Only one person isn't impressed with it - and that was because it wasn't as comfortable or practical as they would have preferred! However I didn't buy the car to for either of those qualities, although I happen to think it's plenty comfortable enough.

Would you buy this car again and why?

No - for the one reason that I like something different each time I change cars.

What are you likely to buy next?

I was also considering an Audi TT Coupe - but the price put me off.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Franchised

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£9,499

When did you buy the car?

February 2014

Did you get a good deal and why?

Didn't ask for a deal as I know they don't do them - the price on the car is what you pay.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

I wanted something fun and nippy to drive that had a sporty kind of look about it.

What was the dealer like?

2 out of the 4 people I dealt with were great; friendly, helpful, patient and easy to get on with. The other 2 weren't so good to deal with.

What's it like to drive?

I think it's great fun to drive - just what I was looking for. Love how agile it is, really fun cornering and has plenty of poke to overtake. The computer advises changing up the gears sooner that I would have normally anticipated - but that's to do with the economy. So it depends on what the road conditions are, as to whether I take or leave it's advice! Seems to have plenty of pull, even in 6th gear at 60mph to accelerate sharply away.

What's it like to park?

Still getting used to the dimensions of it, but the rear parking sensors help and it's easy to maneoveure.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Nothing so far - but I did only pick it up yesterday!

What's most practical about your car?

The huge boot - when the roof is up!

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Quite a few fun gadgets really - love the car's ability to play music off my iPhone, the directional headlights and of course, the folding roof.
