Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Exhaust disintegrates after 15k miles max. First water pump only lasted 30k miles which meant cambelt change as well at Peugeot main dealer rates to preserve warranty! Never really liked very wet or very cold conditions but no significant issues. 159k miles on one clutch and one set of shocks.
