Creaking drivers seat. Dealer replaced. Problem sorted.
This car is very quick and pulls extremely smooth due to the twin turbo. Turbo lag almost eliminated. Handles like it's on rails (nearly as good as my old 405 Mi16, only let down by the car being heavier).
As with all Peugeot's, that perfect balance between grip, comfort and body roll.
Oh! Beautiful machine. The Peugeot 407 is now fifth year from beginning of production, her quality is on mature.
So her reliability is worth while Peugeot's long reputation of high quality marque, I believe.
Especially your version, the 2.2-litres turbodiesel is the best variant of whole 407 series, for excellent engineering and respectable economy. Above all, she is said to reach 150mph (240km/h) in well loosen-up example despite manufacturer data of 137mph (220km/h)! It's astonishing for 170bhp motor.
Along with it, the V6 variants of 407,both 3.0V6 petrol and 2.7V6 diesel guises, can reach 155mph (250km/h) on several occasions, much faster than quoted data of 143mph (230km/h).
The high standard of compromise between total comfort and cruising ability is the very tradition of Peugeot brand, so the newest 407 is on it.
