What Car? says
For It looks pretty cool and most models are packed with loads of toys and safety kit
Against The 307 is tall and heavy, so don't expect athletic agility or performance. Rear space also isn’t great
Verdict
There are lemons about, but you can certainly get a lot of car for your cash
Go for… 110bhp 1.6-litre diesel
Avoid… Early 1.4-litre petrols
- 1. The narrow boot opening can make getting bulkier items in easier said than done
- 2. The sloping rear roofline makes headroom in the back tight
- 3. The indicator stalks can fail, so make sure every function on them works and that they feel solid
- 4. Head gaskets have been known to give up the ghost on some early 1.4 petrols
- 5. Suspension faults are fairly common, even on recent examples
