I know I started this thread because of the ridiculous number of faults I have had with my current 307. My first 307 was a 1.4 Hdi and I did 105,000 miles in 3 years. Only problem encountered was the COM2000 (indicator stalk) of which I had five. My current 307SW is appalling, and maybe I have just been unlucky - but it has certainly put me off Peugeot for the time being.

I did test drive the 308 this week and both the salesman & tech guy came out with the same things "this is much better than the 307, they have ironed out all the problems, the build quality is better and they have put the car through double the amount of test miles". Unfortunately, due to poor service and a poor example of a 307, they have lost a longstanding customer.

I do have that butterfly in the gut feeling about getting the Civic. Let's hope it's not like the one when you get a new girlfriend, & only lasts three months before you want to trade it in for something with a nicer looking dashboard, and a decent gearbox!
