On the road
Driving
Easy to drive slowly and very good in the corners, just got to time the under steer with the lift off over steer - I've been bitten with the Peugeot bug.
Performance
Depends how you drive it - can be quick on the bendy bits but for general driving its not enough power.

Living with it
Reliability
engine wise excelent - with only 120000 miles on the clock it starts every day rain or shine. electrics and ac are the problem areas.
Image
good image as the cars have reliable engins and look sexy however bad image with the electrical problems.
Comfort
Very comfortable even after 3 hours (in the front) not if your tall and in the back.

Security and Service
Security
OK security - my car did not come with an alarm - only deadlocks.
Service
i'll give you an example - Peugeot stated i needed a new wiring loom (reason behind the heater and fans not working) quoted me 700 pounds or there about. £2.50 spent down the scrap yard on a relay and it was all working again. Never again.
