2004 Peugeot 307 SW review from Norway
"Another underrated french performer!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The CD-changer refused to eject a CD once. It was a CD/RW and the manual for the car specifically stated that CD/RWs should not be used. So I was warned... Nothing else has gone wrong with the car.
General comments?
Very powerful and torquey engine. Can't believe it's a 1,6. Engine is better than my previous 2,0 liter 110 bhp HDi, which made my Xantia front heavy and prone to understeer. Also uses less fuel.
Comfort could be better. Ride is hard coming from a Citroën, and the Pirelli tires are very noisy! Drivers seat also lack lumbar support.
Glass roof is great!
Climate control is great. The engine gets warm very quick in winter. Webasto is not needed, which it was in the Xantia.
