Peugeot really released the 1007 expecting to lose £13k on each one???

Were they even as much as £13k?

That was the loss on everyone sold.

Yes I had got that, hence my question. If they were £12,995 then losing £13,000 would have been quite a performance.

It looks like it was constructed out of Lego and then had the pimples smoothed off the exterior. Nope. Keep it GM.

How do you mean? It's not particularly square

Nor is it particularly curvy, it is somewhere in between. Neither having flowing beauty nor a functional aggressive form. The edges seem half arsed, like someone rounded them off because they were too, well, edgy.

A bit of a dogs dinner at any price point.

There is information kicking around that US dealers have taken initial holding deposits for all 42,000 mid-engine Corvettes to be built in the 2020 model year.

Astounding.

Losing money? Not a chance.
