On the road
Driving
Good Handling. Good for motorways where acceleration isn't as much of an issue and where fuel economy is an advantage.
Performance
Well ok, not the best but her top speed isn't too bad and she makes up slightly in how she handles.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Very reliable. No serious problems.
Image
Well I am a student, so in the student Class it's a very good motor.
Comfort
Not bad. Ventilation system impressive for a car of its age. Heat to the feet is disappointing, but I find that's usual for Peugeots. Drove 500 miles non-stop and she was fine.

Security
Well she has never been stolen but diesel isn't really on the hit list for thieves.

Parts are a bit expensive. Wheel trims were £35 each.
