Hoping that one of the 5 or so people who has bought one will visit the BR is a bit of an outside chance :-)

We're all keen motorists here, and maybe we're put off by the road tests all saying that the 1007 is sluggish (new engine not much better) and that the sliding doors are a bit of a gimmick - an answer to a problem we didn't have.
What is it with Renault and Peugeot? They have more electrical gizmos than anyone else, but they make the least reliable electrics. Citroens seem to have more useful innovations which tend to work.

I saw one in a carpark and I had to watch the doors opening.

Lol.
11 posts but no owners - guess that DOES say something about how many (few) owners there are indeed!
I was just curious, as aaprt from the apparent low performance, I am not sure what it is that puts everyone off them.
There was a courtesy car in our car park at work a few months back and having had a quick look round it did seem OK and I liked the idea of the doors for access in smaller carparks and for easy of entry - especially for older people.
Didn't drive it though.

Somebody has, as one often visits a neighbour, I also saw another one once but it could have been the same one I suppose.

Mrs V took part in a pre-launch consumer appraisal type introduction to this vehicle.
They seemed surprised when they asked how much she thought it should be on sale for £7000 wasn't enough, it seems!!

A local driving school has one. Must be a novelty for the examiners.

We had a hired 1007 from CDG airport a year or so ago. It was an "upgrade" apparently! Tiny boot, I think it was a 1.4 HDI so was ok on the road, handled ok but was no ball of fire as you might expect given its weight. The doors were a novelty at first but soon became a pain and completely unnecessary for a car of this (or any!) size. French build quality, coupled with complicated mechanics and electrics - you'd have to be brave and/or stupid IMHO.
