General car ChatDiscuss general car tuning, styling and driving (Things that would also work on just about every other type of car.) This includes a new Diesel subforum along with our Polls and Styling forum.
I'm being steered away from buying this Peugeot 307 (by some friends and forum users on another site). However, they are all petrol heads and are steering me away from diesels in general.
I quite like diesels however and this car seemed both good value (spec wise) but with 187k on the clock.
Hello and welcome to the site mate
your thread became stuck in the moderation queue due to the link
187 is starting to get on even for a diesel, as long as its been well seviced you should be fine. would be worth checking for play in the turbo if its never been replaced.
personally id hold off and look for the later models with 136bhp Hdi engine

Peugeot's 4 cylinder HDi units are well regarded and if this one's been serviced properly then it should serve you well. DO make sure the history is complete, even at this mileage it's important not to have big gaps. Not that I doubt the mileage, the seller's been totally honest. So, the same as any used car really. The HDi 90 is not the most powerful of engines - it has no intercooler - but as such it's not been possible for the previous user(s) to hammer the whole drivetrain outrageously.
The 307 is a good car in general, Peugeot is good at chassis design; gearbox is slick and the clutch is near perfectly weighted, like just about any Peugeot made in the last twenty years.
High mileage Peugeot 307... buy?
