I sit at the same roundabout each day, looking at this very car, and it seems to me that there's an awful lot to like.

Yes, it's not a PH Superhero. It runs on cancer and has four doors. But for something to get you 'to and fro' it seems to tick a lot of boxes.

Handsome looks, low tax, economical diesel engine, toys, good price.



Up at £7300, you'd hope to get a bit of a a deal. One owner, 60k, FSH, 3 years old.

Am I the only one with a soft spot?

Blimey. Universal approval. Must be a PH first or something or another.

I might go and have a look at this one.

I had 2 and wouldn't hesitate in having a 3rd.

Both were ex Peugeot Management cars, I did 5k in the first one until a 26 ton truck decided to write it off. The fact that the driver was on my car roof to get me out and thought he'd killed me, was one reason 7 days later I had an almost identical replacement.

I'm pleased to say I was able to get out of the car unaided and with just a scratch to my neck where the seatbelt cut in.
Hmmm. That doesn't sound like a particularly well balanced fight. Glad you're here to fill in the insurance forms. xx

Praise indeed. If this one is still around next weekend I'll go give its tyres a kick.
