Peugeot 306 advice please

(1/3) > >>

JumboBeef:
Hello all,

My folks have had the same 1988 Ford Granada for 18 years and now it is time for a change. A friend has found a 2002 Peugeot 306 estate 1.6 petrol auto, two owners, VGC, FSH, 37,000 miles for £2,000 ono.

I know nothing about Peugeots so could anyone please tell me if this is a good car for a good price? What sort of MPG could they get?

Thanks!

I have had a 306 and two 307s, great cars, very reliable and parts are easy to get, #2k is a bit much for a 1.6 petrol, the 1.9 or 2.0 diesels are so much better and more reliable and economical. The HDI or turbo diesel engine is superb. For that money you could get 02 plate 307s with higher mileage, but with service history. In the last 7 years of owning a peugeot, apart from servicing i have had nothing wrong with em. Others may tell you different, but i really rate them.

Any idea how that compares to the diesel?

Hi,

himself runs a pug 406 1.8 petrol rapier saloon (sedan) and i run a pug 407 1.6 hdi diesel wagon (estate) - the diesel is much nippier and does about 10 miles extra to the gallon & seems overall a better beastie.

just our opinions on the 2 engines!

regards

ela
