Is the Peugeot 107 a car worth thinking about buying?

Is the Peugeot 107 a car worth thinking about buying?

When we look at the city car range that is currently on offer,  some of the vehicles that come to mind. These may include the likes of the Ford Fiesta, the Clio from Renault, and the Vauxhall Corsa. 

Another great selling model that comes to our minds includes the 107 from Peugeot. This particular model was first introduced as a part of the French manufacturers' range in 2005. The city car is part of a joint venture between PSA Group and Toyota. This developed three models, the Aygo from Toyota, the Citroen C1, and the Peugeot 107. 

The 107 was introduced to replace the 106 models, which was eventually withdrawn in 2006. The 106 itself proved to be one of the key ingredients of success for Peugeot but how does the 107 compare to it?

Some of the best features on offer with the Peugeot 107

So when we look at the best highlights of the 107, it is just how stable the car is and how well it handles. The brand has included a one litre engine underneath the bonnet which sees a total power deliverance of 68 brake horsepower. 

Much like many city cars, you may not a expect great deal of space inside of the vehicle. However, even the 3 door version is surprisingly roomy. The French firm does give you the option of upgrading to a five-door model, which sees more accessible space come into play. 

Peugeot offers the 107 with three levels of trim. These include entry-level Access models, Active and Allure models. Some great options are available with the more basic models. Expect to find the likes of power steering, a CD player, and driver and passenger side airbags as standard. 

If you decide to climb higher up in trims you can expect to find the likes of fog lights, electric windows, and central locking. 

Top of the range models are equipped with LED daytime running lights, USB, and Bluetooth connectivity. You can also find fourteen-inch alloy wheels and a leather steering wheel to top off the styling.

Does the 107 come with a good reasonable price tag?

If you are wondering just how much the 107 sells for, you can look at the Citroen C1 and the Toyota Aygo to get a brief idea. £7,995 is the opening figure for entry-level models and you can expect the cost to rise upwards to £10,045 for the range-topping model. 

Like its predecessor 106, the new 107 offers fantastic value for those wanting a new car on a budget.
