2002 Peugeot 307 XSE review from Australia and New Zealand

The anti pollution fault alert came on within one km of driving out of the dealer. It was rectified and then came on another 50km later. So far so good.

The Dealer had left wax 'blobs' and marks all over the car when delivered and tried to deny it was his problem.

Car does not start first time in hot weather.

It has door creaks noticeable when reversing out of driveways.

The radio 'face' was scratched when delivered, thus reception was very bad. Awaiting on a new head unit.

Although I have noticed a few teething problems, I must say that I have totally enjoyed driving the car. Its handling and looks are fantastic especially its distinguished styling. A ripper in silver!!

It sometimes tend to skip over potholes and uneven road surfaces around the city.

The driving position is absolutely a treat as the seats and armrests provide utmost comfort.

I seem to think that for Australian conditions and the amount of highway driving that I do, it does rev a little too high at speeds on 110 and 120 km/h. Definitely needs an extra gear like the Megane II will offer.

Overall, I think it has great equipment offerings and they are so user friendly such as auto sensing wipers (a great feature). Excellent value for money I thought.
