2002 Peugeot 307 LX review from UK and Ireland

Indicator stalk was over compensating (i.e. I would turn right, and in turning the steering wheel left to complete the turn the indicator would go past the middle and indicate left.) To correct this, the COMS2000 section was replaced 3 times under warranty, and is now functioning okay.

My head gasket is being replaced today (at only 55,000 miles!)

A radiator seal is also being replaced today.

Peugeot are meeting some of the cost of the gasket and radiator leak as a "good will gesture", as my warranty expired 4 months ago.

The gearbox leaked oil soon after I purchased the car.

The horn only worked occassionally - it was raised with the dealer on every occassion that I took it in for a service, and only today have I been told that there were loose wires (warranty expired out 4 months ago, but I'm not being charged for the repair).

Generally it's a good car - I genuinely like it. However, the abundance of problems have been incredibly annoying, and I think Peugeot will suffer greatly with people buying from different manufacturers in the future.

I've promised myself that I will look at Japanese manufacturers for my next car simply because the build quality is meant to be superior in general.
