Peugeot 307 Estate (02-07) - Review

Review by Parkers on
The estate version of the 307 makes a practical and rational choice for a family car - especially in diesel form. It's roomy, has a large load area and has a good range of engines. And if you need a few extra seats for kids, the SW can provide it. All 307s were improved in 2005 with a new front-end and a more reliable electrical system.
