I'll start with one thing. Seeing these are now getting up there in kms. If you can't do your own mechanicals.... probably don't buy one. I… Read more
purchased one last week with known issues. Peugeot quoted $1500 to replace a broken throttle body which is a common problem. I fixed it with epoxy putty for $18. The timing belt is due. Old owner was quoted $1000. I'll do it myself for $300. The window regulators are made out of French cheese. But parts are cheap on ebay. Now with that outn of the way...... I LOVE THIS CAR. It handles and drives like a dream. The 2.0 hdi and aisin transmission are known to be very reliable. It's very good on fuel. With mixed city and hwy about 6.5L 100. Ive seen 5.5 on highway driving. The seats are supet comfy. The stereo is great even in the base model.
Fingers crossed it serves me well.

at least once every year. We needed to have it towed four times over the last couple years. In the end -- despite meticulous (and expensive) servicing at a Peugeot dealer -- we suffered a catastrophic engine damage at 160,000km. A second-hand engine was quoted by the Peugeot workshop at $8k , which was about as much as the car would have been worth. But not before we shelled out another $1.5k in repairs (the damage had already been done to the cylinder) that was meant to fix the issue but merely prolonged the life of the car by a couple weeks. Would never buy a Peugeot again. Disappointed by the car and Peugeot service.
