Good Points: Nippy, easy to park, low insurance, low road tax, good radio and CD player.
Roomier than it looks from the outside.
DOES OVER 60 MPG

Bad Points: Unadjustable head rest on front passenger seat partly obscures view to driver's left when reversing.
No 'real' glove compartment to lock or hide away things

General comments: Just changed my trusty old Nissan Almera GX because I had had it from new for 8 years and it had never let me down until 2 weeks ago when the battery gave up (now that's not bad after 8 years!) BUT I am 65 and thought it was time that I had a smaller more economical vehicle.

Did a lot of Internet research and asked around and saw exactly what I wanted at a local garage - Peugeot 107 Urban- I opted for FIVE doors as I do not like the very large doors on the 3 door model of any car.
It is a very good car for its size, very nippy and accelerates a lot faster that I thought it would. It is very roomy, in fact surprisingly so and the boot is adequate for my needs - able to carry about 6 large bags of shopping; there is also PLENTY of LEG ROOM for the rear passengers. It is rather noisy after the larger Nissan but not unbearably so.
There is central locking which also locks and unlocks the boot which is manually opened from the rear.

Upholstery and carpeting is pretty good, kind of a plush grey velvety type with grey PVC trimming. The radio and CD player is good, better than I expected in the size of the car.
All around visibility IS rather compomised by the UNadjustable headrest of the front passenger seat so you have to lean a little when reversing but otherwise it's OK.

The one real annoyance for me is that there is no REAL glove compartment - it is open so there is nowhere that you can put things out of sight . Things can be put under the front seats BUT only from the rear.
However this is really a minor point and is outweighed by the fact that it does 65 mpg and the Road Tax is only £35 per annum instead of the £120 I paid for the Nissan. It also fits into much smaller spaces than the Nissan and is much easier to manoeuvre.
The Insurance is also low because of the size

Cheap, nippy and fun to drive. Its also the best looking of the 3 other manufactures efforts (C1, Aygo).
If you just want a car that gets yoy around and is easy to drive with no luxuries... this is the car for you. its ideal for young drivers or as a second car.

Good value for money, and good range of colours, 3 and 5 door option, but air conditioning is extra £500.

Fun to drive, character, inexpensive.
