MAGNIFIQUE
Nothing.
At speed, there is a slight rattling noise, but that does not bother me at all.
I love Peugeot.
They have been the car company for me for absolutely donkeys years.
Great to look at, great to be seen in.
A wonderful driving experience.
CD changer works fine, radio tuner is a blast.
Sleek, super mini.

Absolute beauty, but jinxed
On delivery, the air Conditioning has not worked, even though this was pointed out to the dealer when I bought the car.
There is a constant whining from the cam belt, the gear box rattles in 5th gear.
The exhaust rattles constantly (so does the dashboard and rear torsion bars).
The latest thing to happen is that the doors lock and unlock themselves randomly. The car is possessed!
The car is gorgeous - it looks like sex on wheels with its 16' alloys, and full Peugeot sport kit (Mesh grille, spoiler, Arch extensions)
It's a shame that it seems to be totally jinxed for me. I'm selling it soon because I'm sick of the faults, but its fantastic to look at and it handles like something else!

Great car, but expensive to own
Remote locking worked intermittently, it wouldn't lock and the spare key only set the alarm off.
If started from warm it used to stall / cut out when the clutch was fully depressed again (IE at the lights)
The car was very quick, but you have to be careful when pushing it to the limit.
Fuel costs were high.
Leather trim lovely.
CD player had awful sound quality.
Super car, but sold because it was due a major service + tax + first MOT + insurance (I don't own a bank to pay for all that!!)

UNRELIABLE - What is going to fail next?
Entire exhaust system including catalytic converter required replacing after 1 and a half years at a cost of £900.
Gearbox failed after 3 years and only 45,000 miles at a cost of nearly £2000.
Peugeot inform me unscheduled repairs such as these are normal.
I get better reliability out of my washing machine.
Absolutely abysmal!

Great car, rubbish dealership!
After 4 month front passenger seat had to be replaced.
Rapid ticking noise when air conditioning was and revs above 5000.
Windscreen cracked after 18 months.
One of the nicest looking cars around.
Good level of kit on the LX model. It came with twin airbags, electric mirrors and windows, central locking and air conditioning.
Nice interior, although long journeys are a pain as the seats could be better.
Dealer service is (in my experience) appalling. After car was in for service alloy wheels were scratched and a puncture had materialised after I drove the car to the dealer.
Bonnet prone to stone chips.

Nice run around - bit boring
Break light remaining on permanently - happened twice.
Not very good at initial acceleration, but runs quite well at top end (when on motorway).
Love the car, but it's become too popular and I'm sick of seeing them.

The seats are so uncomfortable to stop you falling asleep
A centre section of the exhaust pipe keeps working its way loose.
Washer jets keep on blocking up.
Exhaust pipe bangs against the bumper.
If you want to buy a real performance hatch, this car is not for you.
If you want a car that will cripple you with its poor seats, driving position and sheer tedium, this IS the car for you.

I would like the car if it did not have all the problems, and the bad customer support from Peugeot
Only 1 wheel went Bald, all the rest were OK...
Manifold needed to be changed 3 times and is still not right.
Airbag warning light keeps going on.
Alarm keeps going off.
Car squeaks when driving in a straight line.
It could be such a performance rich, responsive car if not for the build quality, I blame a large majority of the faults on the dealer.
I have had the car for 6 months and it has been in the garage 5 times, the service from the garage (Beechwood of Coventry) has been disgraceful, they have absolutely zero customer support or respect.
