Im probably gunna get shredded but I thought id show you all my new car I purchased a couple of weeks ago, Its the new Peugeot 207. I opted for the 1.6 HDi Turbo (110 BHP) Sport. I was after something a bit nippy that also had very good fuel consumption and as I like peugeot's (everyone gasp in horror) I decided on this car after taking it for a test drive. It has the same engine as the 207 GT but costs a few thousand less. Its brand new an 06 plate. Heres the Pics:

Thanks :) LOL just wish I hadnt scratched the door like an idiot have to book it in tommorow to have it repaired. Wanna get it done properly as the car is only 2 weeks old. Was cleaning it and accidentally knocked the door it flew open and mustve hit the house cos its got a scratch half an inch long and about 2mm wide and went right down to the primer. Does anyone know how much that would cost to be professionally repaired? LOL im such a noob. :rolleyes:

looks really good like the idea of that engine too!- didn't like the first few 207s i saw as they looked all bulgy and bloated- reckon it was because they were light colours though

haha did they forget to put on the wing mirrors? Looks like a after thought? :confused:

Yeah they took some getting used to. But surprisingly you can see quite a lot out of them. I had a 206 LX before and I can see much more out of the 207's than the 206's.
 
Well they fixed the scratch for £49.95 inc vat. Its a lot but tis my own fault I scratched it. They did a great job though looks like new. Cant even tell its been done hehe.

pretty sure, we have some 407's with them in at work. Get very bad fuel econemy, below 40mpg!!!

bit small for the 407 though imo, i know the 206 with that lump is pretty quick, the 207 should be very similar although i would imagine it is heavier
 
Nice car mate.

Saw a number of them at the weekend (I'm not trying to hint they are already common!), and I must admit I like the look of the car. Just nicely rounded over the 206.
 
Not really what I would have looked at, but as long as your happy with it. Get to know your dealer though, you may be visiting them more often than you think ;) :p


Out of interest, what made you choose that over it's direct rivals (Clio DCi, Fez TDCi, Ibiza TDi et al)?
 
Thats a pretty nice car you have there mate.

I personally can't stand the front but thats personal preference.

Excellent punchy engines ( I test drove one of the 206's with the same engine a while back) and reasonably quick.

Hope you enjoy it which is the most important thing.
 
Its the same engine as the 207 GT. I think it was done by Peugeot/Citroen/BMW partnership iirc. Fuel economy is fantastic on it tbh. Comparing this to my 206 of course but its still very very good. :D

I dunno tbh. I had a 206 before and although the gearbox was shocking I still actually really liked it. Took the 207 GT for a test drive and loved it so since I liked it decided on the 207.
 
Any interior shots? :)

Looks very nice, especially in black! There is someone going around where I live with one but he looks a bit silly really because theres a huge gap between his head and the top of the windscreen :p

BeatMaster :D

Hehe will take some when I get it back lol. Its got a problem with the airbag system peugeot are dealing with atm. Still its a new model so I suppose there are gunna be some teething problems. They gave me a dodgy 1007 and its not the nicest car ive driven. I want my 207 back lol. Thinking about it actually ive got an interior pic at home on my camera. Will post it when I get home in the morning. (At work on nights atm)
