2003 Peugeot 307 XSi review from UK and Ireland
"A Catastrophe"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had the car 3 months and already 3 times have had to be towed to a garage with "Anti Pollution Fault". Paid so far £450 in repairs and computer checks on that fault alone. Do not trust the car at all to run.
Also electrics seem to have a gremlin.
Alarm warning light has been on since day of purchase.
The horn doesn't work.
The electric passenger window only operates downwards from the drivers side.
The CD interchanger has chewed CDs and now refuses to work at all.
The radio regularly wipes out all the preset channels
The wing mirrors have often refused to pop out on starting ignition.
Also seem to have real trouble with getting wheels to stay balanced after 3 trips to Kwik Fit & the like for balancing (vibrates at 70 miles an hour).
General comments?
Wish I'd stuck with my 8 year old Seat. At least it never gave me any high expectations and ran solidly during it's life with me.
