2003 Peugeot 307 Rapier review from UK and Ireland
"A fast stylist car, but not really worth the expenditure"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The rear offside door jammed up and could not be opened after owning the car for only about 3 weeks. It was returned to the dealer and took two visits for the fault to be diagnosed and repaired.
Two months later the rear nearside door jammed up in exactly the same way. This is rally frustrating. Is this a design fault, poor quality components or something to look forward to for the next few years?
General comments?
This Peugeot 307 is my third Peugeot the previous models being a 106 and a 405. I don't think that the 307 is built to the same high standards as older models.
