USED Peugeot 207 Hatchback (06 - )

My car

I have just been and ordered my first 207, its the 1.6 hdi 90 sport and cant wait to get it, its a lovely looking car, with sporty lines, was going to get a clio but could not get the 207 out of my head so went and looked at one, cant believe its only 35 quid for road tax result, once again cant wait to get out in my new car would recomend it to anyone.

My car

Really a very nice car to drive. Power steering is amazing and makes parking and manovering simple. Cabin is of a very good quality and seats are comfortable and supportive. A little restriced in the back for lager passangers but that is my only issue. 1.4HDI engine is not the most powerful but it was a compromise for economy, which in these times saves alot of money. I got 78.4 mpg over 40 miles on the way to work the other day. Would recommend to anyone wanting a good small family car.

My car

Bought the car for my wife as a replacement for 1.3GSI Hyundai Getz mainly on the grounds of looks and fuel econnomy.Pluses are it is much more pleasing to the eye,more comfortable and much plusher inside with all the whistles and bells. Negatives are it seems sluggish pulling away and definitely is not as responsive when you need a bit extra when overtaking . She loves it and it should save us money but its not great to drive.

I have owned my GTI for about 9 months now, I am very proud to own it, I bought it second hand from Available Car last year for a great price and I've not seen any advertised since like-for-like. I love it! I have to say being only my second car to drive I have been very spoilt, it's very quick off the mark and I havent timed it myself but peugeot say 6.7secs which just about suits me fine. As for the running costs, I know I've only rated it "good" but thats what you'd expect for a 1.6 GTI,it does drink fuel as I only get around 28mpg urban and combined and my road tax last time was £175, but it doesn't bother me because everytime I go out in it, I've still got the new car feeling.

I did have a fuel leak on the turbo not long after buying it, but it was covered under warranty and Peugeot sorted me out a courtesy car upon dropping it into the garage. Not had a service yet though but I expect that to be around £200, will just have to see anyway.

In conclusion it's exactly as the advert portrays 'A Little Devil'
