It has navigated several times from the west of Wales across the hills to the Midlands and manged to return over 40 miles to the galleon. The engine is responsive in low and high gears allowing you to pull off from a junction when you have to and up any steep hill. The cruise control allows you to navigate the motorways comfortably with little effort being expended.<br /><br />For <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">business</span> it has been <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">extremely</span> useful with the ability to carry large loads with easy access provided by the drop down tail gate. <br /><br />General build quality seems seems fine, but has been let down by a few controls that have a plastic feel.<br /><br />Now <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">unfortunately</span> for the painful bit.<br /><br />Within the first 2 months of life our <a href="http://www.autodeal.co.uk/Used_PEUGEOT/4007/">Peugeot 4007</a> has developed an intermittent maintenance light. After sending off a diagnostic report, Peugeot have booked it in for a repair, <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">unfortunately</span> the puzzle keeps growing. Hopefully it will be back on its feet as soon as possible and this will be the last of its woes.<br /><br />Dealing with the situation has been somewhat of a pain as it has now involved a couple of long round trips to the dealership. A courtesy car has been provide but <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">unfortunately</span> a Peugeot 207 does not really match the 4007 in any way. Also as thorn in the side we had to arrange fully comprehensive insurance on the courtesy car.<br /><br />Overall Pros<br /><ul><li>Economical</li><li>Practical (Has <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">up to</span> 7 seats)</li><li>Not as ugly as you first think</li><li>A good fun SUV</li><li>Lots of cup holders<br /></li></ul>Overall Cons<br /><ul><li>Interior could be a little more polished</li><li>You will probably end up with a 207 if anything goes wrong.</li><li><span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">Reliability</span>, could just be a fluke.</li></ul><br /><br /><a href="http://www.autodeal.co.uk/Used_PEUGEOT/207/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Peugeot 207</span></a><br /><br />This has given me a chance to examine the Peugeot 207.<br />The one supplied was a <a href="http://www.autodeal.co.uk/Used_PEUGEOT/207/">Peugeot 207 1.6 <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">HDI</span> 90</a>. Overall I suppose it is quite a sound little town car, although the general construction seemed quite fragile, especially with two giants sitting in the front seats (Over the 6 foot mark). We did find the center console a little surprising as the dials seemed as if they were out of the 80's and made from cheap plastic.<br /><br />The engine was responsive and fully capable of taking you up to 70 miles an hour.<br />Without driving with economy in mind the trip computer reported a steady average of 47 mpg.<br /><br />The boot was found to be a little small and I could soon envisage filling the back seats up with <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10">belongings</span> if it was every to be used for a holiday.<br /><br />Overall Pros<br /><ul><li>Economical</li><li>Small</li><li>Great for small people<br /></li></ul>Overall Cons<br /><ul><li>Interior feels a bit fragile</li><li>Small boot</li><li>Not for big people</li><li>Loudest air fan ever<br /></li></ul><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3667020058710986017-8026264397624802579?l=autodeal-uk.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Autodealhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02014371634841677060noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667020058710986017.post-56255577914102085182009-05-07T08:43:00.000-07:002009-05-07T08:50:24.348-07:00Images are now available for vehicles!
