2006 Peugeot 307 S review from UK and Ireland
"" Simply awful - avoid!""
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Audio speakers blown.
Wipers (front) faulty.
General comments?
I had a rental 307 for a few weeks recently, which only had 6.5k miles on the clock...
This must be the most dreadful car I HAVE EVER driven or experienced!
Visibility is terrible.
136 HDI engine surprisingly gutless!
The worst gear change ever- it felt like pulling a sloppy rubber stick, 2 metres through thick mud between selections.
Ill conceived dash layout with cheap looking fake
aluminium inserts that fool no one.
Cheap creaky plastic interior materials used.
Unforgivable driving position, with limited available adjustment of drivers seat & wheel.
Pathetic sounding audio providing only annoying distorted rattles from the door bins!
Rubbish ergonomics and driving environment.
The whole car felt weak and poorly built, evidence when opening and shutting the doors etc.
Over soft non supportive seats that are fine when you first land in them.. then give you terrible back ache after a 50 mile drive.
Questionable, but debatable looks, in my opinion, ugly!!...
VW, I forgive you and apologise. My 3 year old Golf GT- TDI is driving heaven compared to this latest competitor from Peugeot!!!
