Faults:

Electric sunroof did not work on purchase.

Wire to starter motor came adrift causing a non start. 5 minutes to diagnose and fix.

Central locking has a mind of its own.

Heater blower noisy.

General Comments:

Purchased from 'Bloke' (you all know the one!) for £140 as a cheap second car. Been utterly reliable.

Comfy to sit in.

Big boot. -it's my mobile shed.

Uses a bit of oil, but no water.

Gearshift notchy.

Handles pretty well.

Faults:

There has only been one minor fault with this car and that was the electric sunroof motor.

General Comments:

A very slow car, but very reliable.

Faults:

Had a clutch problem at 119.000 miles, this was caused by a slack clutch cable easily remedied by slight tightening, resulting in replacing the clutch at 123.000 miles (only second time to be changed plus it was an ex company car)

Other than that no other problems.

General Comments:

Fantastic car!!!

Would still have had the car if it wasn't written off because of some idiot in a Rover 214.

Slight damage to my car, Rover was destroyed. Written off due to age otherwise good solid car no rust.

I loved it, all the power you could possibly want under your foot.

Faults:

There was a suspicious smell inside right from the start. We first thought it was the dealer's interior perfume, but due to there dishonesty, we eventually realized the smell was in-fact the odor of a dog!

On a regular and typically expensive service, the dealer "forgot" to reconnect the turbo - and this was a Peugeot Main Dealer! This occurred only a few days before we went trekking across France in it, so luckily "we" discovered the problem before it was too late.

The rear electric window decided to stop working. Fortunately, the window was closed at the time.

The clutch snapped without warning at 66,000 miles.

It was a pain trying to close the boot. It took several forceful attempts before it locked.

The parcel shelf rattled constantly. It drove us mad!

General Comments:

This was the biggest financial mistake of our lives.

We just could not trust this car. The electrics were reluctant to work - especially the electric windows and central locking.

It was capable on the road, practical and very economical, but Peugeot missed out on a vital aspect of owning a car - reliability. If Nissan and Toyota can do it, why can't Peugeot?

Faults:

Starter motor died soon after getting the car.

Alternator recently blew both bearings and voltage regulator.

Valve Stem Oil Seals require replacement.

Engine bottom end has developed a bad knock (ref mark D6D)

Rear trailing arm bearings seized - new axle sourced and installed.

Brakes totally changed, new pads, discs, master cylinder, brake compensator and still a spongy-ish pedal - new ABS compensator on the list as no ABS light is visible on the dashboard (bulb does work though)

General Comments:

Nice car, quick in a straight line and nice to sit in now I've put Mi16 leather trim in it. Funny as it confuses the Peugeot parts people as they see the leather, then the 8v engine!

Has developed a nasty habit to oversteer and understeer - wet roundabouts are 'interesting' to drive around, the back end kicks out pretty much every time, tracking and camber will have to be seen to!

Not hard to get a decent sound out of the car too, in the way of In Car Entertainment. A decent head unit works wonders - replacement speakers are easy to come by and a huge boot makes for some great bass!
