2003 Peugeot 307 SW SE review from UK and Ireland
"More cheaply built than it looks"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Whine in 3rd gear. (Unresolved)
Folding mirrors sometimes erratic.
Turbo blew at 6 months old. (Fixed after 6 week wait for parts)
Suspension rattles. (Fixed)
Door handles jammed in temperatures over 40 degrees Celsius and the trim falls off them.
Clutch and flywheel failure at 50000 miles (Fixed after 3 week wait for parts)
Carpet and door trim falling off. (Unresolved)
New turbo now reported as noisy by dealer. (awaiting decision on whether to replace.)
General comments?
A lovely, comfortable car to drive and be in.
I get 40 miles per gallon which I think OK for a heavy car.
Repairs all under warranty so cheap for me, but will be a risk when warranty lapses.
Delays for parts unacceptable.
