Yes and poop !!!
Its a modern car theres some fun to be had but doesnt hold a candle to the legend 205 or 306 possibly faster but no where near as fun too many management systems
Much prefer my tit x sport as a modern car
Would give it a 6 out of 10

That's what I want it for a daily runner to work and back - then I can put my 6 in garage and stop the mileage building up

Not a bad car generally depends on you particular taste its good generally
I drive with passion Smile and prefer the extra size of larger cars for a daily this would not be on my list next car purchase time
I didnt really consider the practicality of it as a daily perhaps that speaks for its self
Would definately say give one a test drive if they can supply one i believe its a fair wait list was when i had a go

Garage near me has a 1yr old one for sale - was tempted but may be a waist of money considering I work about 2 miles away haha - but then lets be honest I'm very good at waiting money when it comes to cars recently!! LOL

I had one for a week on loan from Peugeot UK.

I really liked it and preferred it to a regular 208 GTI.

It was fast, comfortable (considering it has 19s) and handles very well. I even liked the sound generator - it made it sound like an 80's Audi Quattro - on the inside at least.

Too expensive at £29k but good value at £20k with a few thousand miles on it.

Loads of room in it and I was really sad when it had to go back.

I've heard good things, they look great too. One of the autocar writers tweeted the other day about it being a brilliant little engine
