i have heard a lots of people said Peugeot is not very good car make at all, especially a hatchback ones?

Question

is it true?

Answer 1

In my opinion, that is true. Many others share that opinion also.

In Peugeot's defense, it is much more difficult to own a car in a country where there are very few of that brand. It makes it hard to find people who can work on them and to find parts.

France and Italy have some very good exports. Automobiles are not included in that list. There are some arguments to be made for those in the over $250,000 USD class, but even that is subject to debate.

I hate to say it, but Japan seems to have the lion's share of well built automobiles at this point. Actually, that has been true for several years. The main difference is their attitude.

Answer 2

Peugeot like EVERY car make have its good and bad points. If your looking at getting a Peugeot talk to people who have them as daily drivers and ignore those whose only experience comes from talking to someone who knows someone that lives next door to a Peugeot owner.
My personal experience with Peugeot (Pugs) is 2 206 hatches and I love them, great daily drivers, look fantastic, extremely zippy especially the RC and most importantly every second car you see is not a Pug. So the wow factor is still there.
Yes they have had some niggles but a bit of research on the net or a quick call to a service centre and everything has been rectified.
The camaraderie French Car drivers share esp here in OZ is amazing. We all own what we think is the best marque there is and are happy to share our knowledge, loves/hates and all of our many experiences (yes good and bad) with those who are looking at getting into a Peugeot or even one of the other French Car brands.
There are many web forums out there that cater to Peugeots/Renaults/Citroens but the most informative I think would be Aussiefrogs.

Answer 3

Nah... they're jealous because Peugeot are so much cheaper than other cars... They're fine and reliable.
But.... my advice is that if your mind was set on buying a 207, I recommend you get a new Renault Clio instead. They have the same price, but the Clio is better.
As for other models... my favorite is 407 Paladine... nice design, good horsepower, good looking interior. Not to mention the 607, which is a limo in it's own right.
You should try to get your hands on one for a test drive. That way, you'll know for sure if you really want one. But you will.... they're fun to drive.

Answer 4

i wouldn't know, they don't sell them in the U.S. anymore, you have to go to this one dealership in Jersey and import them if you really want one. however the few i have seen look really nice.
