Peugeot 307CC

OK, - is it a cool machine (at least in 180 BHp guise) or just a fag chariot?

I quite like it actually! As four seats aren't my cup of tea I think a Vauxhall VX220 would be for me (If I could fit in one!)

Funny choice of words there was the WRC version will be covered in Tobacco sponsorship

I saw one on the M6 near Brum on Sunday must be the J Lo of the car world having a somewhat oversized rear end. Sorry Mr designer but somewhere along the line youve designed in a hidious inbalance.

Not a car that will ever figure in my 10,000 best looking cars I'm afraid.

saw one yesterday agree with gnomesmith about the arse , its bigger than the rest of the car

It's also pretty slow as it's so heavy. I estimate a 0-100 kph figure of no better than 9 sec in 180 BHP guise.......

It is uglier than a mud fence, but that large rear may have a purpose - after all if it leaks like a 206CC, it might be there to store the water!

[nickwilcock]

The 180 Bhp version is even slower than I'd estimated...... Sorry, Peugeot - overweight, underpowered and with a big ugly bum!

According to their brochure.....

0-62 in 10s
max speed 140
0-1000m in 31s
gross weight 1870kg

In my defence we have a 306 until someone buys it, and I got a brochure out of interest when the 306 went in for a service.....

JC gave it a right slagging in last weeks sunday times

thought they looked ok on the website, and it doesn't look bad in the brochure, but looked at one in the showroom when the 306 was serviced this week and yes, it's got a huge ar5e.

1870kg!? Is it Peugeot's new mini 4x4 or something? It must weight more than a 406!

gross vehicle weight: 1830
kerb weight: 1490

i expect it will break as well, and if my history with pug dealers is anything to go by, don't bother. And yes it is a fag chariot, why not go total fag and get a Street Ka.
