Faults:

Both CV boots split, which resulted in the drivers side CV joint becoming worn and noisy. The remote control locking has failed several times.

General Comments:

Very good fuel economy. Cheap to run.

Very comfortable to ride in, unless you're over six foot tall, then head room does become a problem.

Good acceleration for the engine size. But the top end speed is a little disappointing.

Very small glove box and not enough space to put items down in eg. tapes etc.

Good all round vision from the driver's seat.

Lots of space in the boot. Can fit a very large amount of luggage into it and still have room to spare.

Faults:

CV joints exposed - rubber came off.

A water hose burst, spraying water everywhere and cutting the engine power when it was needed.

Both fixed by the dealer free of charge.

General Comments:

Not perfect but as close to it as I'm likely to find I think - fast, powerful, refined, comfortable, reliable, good-looking... but enough about me!

Seriously though - only had it 1 week and I like it that much that I've done over 1000 miles in the space of a week! Cheaper than I expected with regards to petrol - average about 35-40mpg although it had gone through a major service before we brought it. Keeps Mondeo and

Vectra man off my back. Also keeps Fiesta XR2 and Nova GSi boy off my back.

Faults:

After I bought this car I had to exchanged the clutch, but now everything is all right!

General Comments:

It's very comfortable car, inside is a lot of place and the baggage locker is big too. I would like to buy a Peugeot 406 for my next car.

Faults:

Bought with just over 109k on the clock and at first, spent £300 on new starter motor and brake discs. Noticed rust on tops of doors and this was fixed under warranty, as the dealer said it was a design fault. Since then it's been very reliable, although now at 136k, it needs new shocks.

General Comments:

A very responsive and sporty car and very economical (40mpg around town). I'd have another.

Faults:

Took over at 109k. Now on 125k, and so far, exhaust and battery have had to be replaced. Also, starter motor went at 110k. Doors had rusted at the top near the seal (a design fault I'm told) but other than that, fine.

General Comments:

Has been faultless since 112k - fast, spacious, economical (42mpg). Very nice.

Faults:

Dashboard lights have burned out. Nothing serious. Lots of inside noise, meaning pops & crackles that come out of the interior. Otherwise a silent car.

General Comments:

Fantastic car. Big for a mid-sizer, great fuel economy, no rust whatsoever, great winter car for Finland's cold climate. I am the 3rd owner.

Faults:

Tailgate once mysteriously opened by itself while driving through town, but otherwise no faults in the 6 months it was owned from new.

General Comments:

Pinnacle of the species. Had everything you could want - electric everything, air con, automatic, alloys, chrome roof rails, metallic paint, airbag, excellent stereo...went like a rocket, well-allied to auto 'box.

Very roomy for the size. Quality build for a Pug. Remote locking has poor range. It's very easy to dent the rear quarter panel getting the jack out. Redundancy made me give it up, but 3 years later it came back in the shape of a GRDT. Happy days are here again
