General Comments
Myself and my family fell in love with the stylish appearance of this car as soon as we visited the garage, the huge sun roof and the extra seating in the boot especially appealed to my kids, however the love was soon lost when the faults started to appear. First off was the winch for the spare wheel which despite having never been used decided to unwind and drop the wheel, luckily this happened while the car was in my garage and not on the road where it could have caused big problems! Next was the interior trim, the carpet wore very badly and started to come away from the trim and one day while driving the rubber trim around the sun roof fell in my lap causing me to swerve all over the road. The last straw was the head lights which started to switch off on their own, after numerous trips back to Peugeot who just scratched their heads and grumbled about intermittent faults being too difficult I lost all confidence in the car and quickly took a part-ex for a new Mondeo which is a 100% improvement.
