This car has been fantastic. I bought it when I was at uni because i needed something which would be cheap to run. It is group 6 insurance and very economical. I consistently get around 45/50mpg and that's a mixture of city and country driving.
People who bad mouth french cars reliability have probably never owned one. In the 2 years i've had it i've not had to replace anything apart from normal consumables and it's always started first time.
I have previously owned the 306 1.9DT which although a good engine, is less refined and sounds much more 'diesely'.
These cars are quite hard to come by now in the 3dr Dturbo spec which means they are holding their value quite well.
I would recommend this car.
