Summary
What does this car say about you?
The peugeot 407 Couple is quite rare, theres not to many around making it unique.When you get a Aston Matin Vanquish driver looking hard at it at traffic lights wondering what it is, you know you have something different and that feels good.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Everyone comments about the cars good looks and a few that have driven it are impressed with the comfort and the way it drives. The car turns heads makes them take a second look..
Would you buy this car again and why?
My 407coupe brought from new has been stolen recently which has forced me to look for a replacement. Working for a major vehicle leasing company I was able to drive quite a few possibilities but could not find another saloon car that gave me the same driving experience.
What are you likely to buy next?
As previously mentioned being forced into finding a replacement proved to difficult, so for me the only replacement for a 407couple is another one.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Driving this car is in my opinion the best I have driven and I have driven quite a few. The handling and ride in my opinion far excels the equivilant BMW 3series, Audi A4 and having driven a Audi A5 couple recently it comes as a poor secord in handling.
What's it like to park?
Parking is perhaps its only bad point on this model, The car is long sometimes even overhanging parking spaces, with lack of visibility on front & rear body lines the parking sensors fitted as standard on the SE model is a must.

Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Had no faults at all despite having loads of electric operated accessorys.
What's most practical about your car?
This car is a 2 door sports saloon and is what it says on the label. Even as a couple its a full 4seater with plently of leg room and a reasonable boot.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Car had SE pack so had every optional extra already fitted as standard.Only optional extra would have been the computerised suspension which comes standard on the sport model.
