Peugeot 807 Review
The Peugeot 807 was introduced in the UK in February 2003 replacing the outgoing 806 model. The 807 is the result of PSA Peugeot Citroen and Fiat Auto's collaboration which also produce its sister models the Citroen C8 and Fiat Ulysse. Built at the Sevelnord plant near Valenciennes in northern France the C8, Ulysses and 807 might be identical underneath the surface but there is no mistaking the 807's distinctive Peugeot family styling.
Available with four engine options which include two petrol engines a 2.0 litre, 138 bhp and a 2.2 litre, 160 bhp and two diesel engines a 2.0 litre, 109 bhp and a 2.2 litre, 130 bhp. The diesel models should prove the most popular due to their fuel economy.
We tested the 807 GLX 2.0 HDi to see how Peugeot fare within the competitive world of MPV's (multi purpose vehicles) or as my editor calls them - vans with windows.
