Looking to buy a Peugeot 407
I would like some advice about the 2.7 HDI Peugeot 407 SW. I'm looking to buy one and would like to be advised about any faults or problems I may find.

I've had two Peugeot cars before - the 405 GLX DT and the 406 HDI Exec. Both have been very good and reliable, so I would like to stay with Peugeot.

Quite rare. The most suitable engine for the 407 was the 2.2HDI. 407 car by car entries:

2.7V6HDI suits the coupe best:

Look in other entries with the 2.7 engine for problems with that, such as Jaguar S Type.
