Peugeot 307 2.0 XSi

Again I'm going to reiterate so people don't pick up on the WRONG assessment of the car! It's a 2 litre xsi PETROL wer'e talking about here!

Great car, good handling and the acceleration in it is awesome. Very spacious inside and quite comfortable for semi bucket seats. For a 2 litre it's suprisingly fuel efficient (well as fuel efficient as a 2 litre can be!)

Yes I have to say got my first car which was a Peugeot 307 and I've had it a year now and I do love it, very reliable loads of room for my children and a good runner. Would defo tell a frien d there good car's . An the only problem I have with it is my petrol light came on last night and now won't go off which is a little worrying as I don't no how much petrol I have left, but this is a small problem and will b sorted.

hi i have had my car 5 months, like the other reviews said lovely looking car, handels well, but i drove down the motorway antipolution thing propped up on my dash bleeped twice and all my air bags blew out, if i had lent the car to my sister she would of killed her self, spoke to main dealer and they wouldnt do anything, im not the 1st person this has happened to, never buying a peugeot again, worst car i have ever owned

I bought my - Peugeot 307 2L Petrol/Auto/ 5 door hatch - new in Dec'05 and have now done 148,000 km. I do a lot of long distance driving - I regularly drive from Brisbane to Sydney and back (Australia) a round trip of 2100 km and 12 hours driving time with stops, each way. I have owned many cars, of all types, all new, and this has to be the nicest and most driver friendly of them all. It has never missed a beep, a very reliable car. On the open road it has plenty of power, especially on long hills, a very comfortable ride and plenty of room. Great business vehicle. I love it. I have two other luxury cars, but this is my favourite. My only dislike is the red backlighting which makes the Multi-function Display invisible in the bright Australian daytime, I'd much prefer the blue backlight as in the VW Golf, which is visible all day.

As some one else has pointed out already this review is based on the 307 2L XSI thats the PETROL version! I purchased my 307 2 months ago, and I think it is a lovely looking car, handles very well! and if looked after and well maintained is a very reliable car...... However there is just one problem with my car and thats the fact that the boot opens when i open any other door, and it wont stay shut! every time I get out of the car the poxy thing opens and when I go to shut it, the mechanism just rejects and pops back up again! I is driving me mad!! Othwer than that one problem its a fab car.

I bought my 307 2.0 hdi 110 in 2001 new and guess what... 9 years driving it, 178.000km later, I only had one electrical problem! I put it into a Peugeot official garage and the repair was very cheap, only 25 euro for a new encoding part!... I rally love it and I even bought the 2.0 hdi xsi 136bhp, 2nd hand, 120.000km and again, 2 years later, I steel have no problems with it... I recomend both versions.

nepver buy another peugeot 2 new dm flywheels and clutches now anti polution problem

No problems whatsoever. have on clock 74000,bought it with 45000 on clock. Best car ever!!!

Worst car I have ever owned. I am taking guilty pleasure in reading these reviews as I'm so glad and so lucky I got rid of my 307 when I had the chance. Purchased second hand from car dealer, nothing but problems with performance & the dreaded "Anti-Pollution Fault".

Turns out the world & his dog knew the 307's poor reputation apart from me!! It was still under warranty from the dealership, so I got a full refund after I fully 'rejected' the car & refused to get in it after the 3rd problem.

AVOID this car at all costs. I wish I'd researched it before I brought it.

These reviews are harsh! Some people should actually check what page this is before writing a review for the WRONG CAR!

Peugeot 307 2.0 XSI is a 16V petrol model, not the 2.0 HDi diesel with all its problems (FAP filter, fly wheel etc). Someone even mentioned a 1.6L car. Please, read the page title!

Anyway, I love my car. It has been great, really stylish and very comfortable (half leathers etc). When it has had problems, I have TAKEN IT TO A DECENT GARAGE!! And they have always been put right straight away for very little cost.

I did suffer a bout of "power loss, cuting out". Took it to a knowledgable Peugeot technician and had it hooked onto a decent diagnostics machine. A £150 coil pack later and its running smooth as a babies bum.

Moaning on the internet about faults and not actually getting them looked at helps no one!

Anyway, I can't really fault Peugot or the 307. It may be a little thirsty on petrol, but thats the price you pay for buying a 2L 16 valve petrol model.
