Peugeot 207 Hatchback (2006 - 2012) 1.6 16V GT THP (150bhp) 5d (2007/07) Owner Review

What does this car say about you?

Err not sure really.

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

Liked it.

Would you buy this car again and why?

No. No matter how well I drove the car I couldn't better a combined fuel consumption of 32mpg, Peugeot quotes 40mpg combined. Don't like the over hard ride quality, neither the economy mode, one can't listed to the radio whilst stationary with the engine off. Insurance costs were reasonable though.

What are you likely to buy next?

Not sure.

Type of dealer you bought from?

Independent

Did you buy this car new?

No

What price did you pay?

£10,600

When did you buy the car?

October 2007

Did you get a good deal and why?

Bought from car supermarket in the Midlands. Saved thousands on list price, only 1 year demo car with 4000 miles on the clock.

Is there any special reason why you bought this car?

Looks, quoted reasonable running costs.

What was the dealer like?

Ok, although I didn't like the extra fees that I had to pay.

What's it like to drive?

Very nippy, poor ride quality over urban streets. Refined on motorways.

What's it like to park?

Easy to park, although it's impossible to see the front of the car from the drivers seat due to the steep bonnet.

Have you had any problems with the car?

Rear tyre pressure sensor replaced under warranty. Build quality not that great to be honest, very hard plastics used throughout cabin. Economy mode feature is terrible - cuts power to interior lights and radio when ignition turned off.

What's most practical about your car?

Good sized hatch, plenty of room up front.

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

Glass roof is a nice touch, standard dual climate control is a good feature in summer.
