2x 2.2 litre diesel engines, 360BHP! Cool!

The 307 cc looks far better in the flesh, but needs a rear spoiler or something. Much better than that magane thing.

As for the Hoggar. Looks like a vehicle for post WWIII. Hmm perhaps Peugeot are on to something. :rolleyes:

the picture of inside the boot of the 307CC, there seems to be lots of roof mechanisms either side of the boot thus reducing the actual size of the boot, nothing like the 206CC

It might stop the roof stoping in a fit

the one At the birmingham car show looked cooler.

Just been trying to read up on the 307cc, but it seems it will not have the 180bhp engine

Although on some of the French sited there is 307 cc and WRC written in the same line?

However read this " The system can detect a hand behind the handle before it has even grasped it to open the door. This ingenious process causes the window to drop a few millimetres before opening so that it separates from the seal joint. This "short drop" phenomenon is managed by a capacitor sensor which is housed in the door handles." I think this is a BMW idea, but it should work well on the cc.

Also has a boot that opens via remote. Sounds sorted. I think I want one, but not in place of my 206cc.

To anyone considering buying one. Personally I would like to be front of the cue. I might be wrong in saying this, but the 206cc's built in the first 4 months of production seem to be the most reliable. It was only when Peugeot had an influx of orders that the production standards seemed to drop!

i wouldn't bet on the first lot being reliable as the monkeys have consistent poor standards and quality.

i'll probably get one but will wait until next year to see if there are many problems with them. i'll also need to save up around Â£10k but that won't be a problem

in the meantime i'll continue making my 206CC look better

I'm also considering a 307CC. My partner is on my back to get a bigger car so the 307CC might be the answer. I had a 306 Cab prior to my 206CC and imagine the 307CC size should be similar to that.

By the way I just reserved the number plate CC 3070 - even if I don't get one I'm sure I'll be able to offload the plates for more than the A$175 I had to pay!

The Peugeot-avenue site explains that the 307 cc will be available with 2 engines, the 138bhp (with Tiptronic stylee gearbox) and the 180 bhp.

See 307 under Models.....

180bhp I want. I wonder what colours they will do. I did see some pictures of interiors and they do a black and red leather just like the 206 cc only with real back seats.

Again from www.peugeot-avenue.com

10 Body hues

In addition to our Babylon red, the 307 CC features 3 new body hues: Montechristo (mother-of-pearl plum), Manitoba Grey (metallic grey-green) and Iron Grey (pearly blue-grey).

7 interior ambiances

- 2 plaited: Titanium (black) and Cobalt (blue)

Retractable hard-top roof

The entirely automatic retractable roof can be activated by a simple unique one-step command accessible to all four passengers inside the vehicle and either deployed or stored inside the boot within 25 seconds.
