2.0 BlueHDi 160 GT Line EAT8 5dr

Something a little different

I'm very pleased with my choice. Peugeot are renowned for their diesels and the 160 hp version in my car suits it's character very well. It's very economical and made for long journeys. As others have said the look is very sleek and is a real alternative to the ubiquitous and bland German offerings, and it often gets admiring glances and comments.

Handling is great - very grippy (see YouTube 'Moose test'). Niggles ? Very few really - it can take some adjustment to get the driving seat just right. There isn't a wash wipe on the rear screen - but then Peugeot fit rear sensors and a camera so it's a non issue really. Reliability has been spot on - nothing needed other than a pair of tyres and an annual service.

I was weighing the hatch Vs the estate originally - but with the back seats folded there is plenty of space available and I've not regretted my choice.
