isnt 162k high milage for a petrol .

2.0 16v - not many want them these days

seems a good buy but i wouldnt touch it. reason-its petrol

[Welly]

Why would you not want a Petrol?

We've seen the 2.0 petrol on here do much more miles that that, and given the engine is comparatively simple compared to a Diesel it'd be fine for a low-mile driver.

As long as it's had plenty of fresh oil through it then there will be no bore-wear or valve train wear like the old days.

Im starting to think the same mate, had no end of probs with my petrol D8, diesel Pugs ive had in the past have given me no trouble

[Gary406]

i just dont like petrol cars anymore. yes it may be a perfectly good car

but diesel anyday for me i have to say .

also the 2.0 16v engine will not return half the MPG my xud is acheiving

Clutch, cambelt, drivers window mechanism (coupés need the window to drop a little in order to open and close the door!)

Not good value, especially considering the low interior spec, and wtf's going on with that gearstick?

i dont understand why peugeot would make an additional light that needs to be cut into the bumper .

what the hell was they thinking. you would think they would be direct replacements

My guess (and this is entirely a guess) is that they probably needed those lights to enter another market (some country with odd lighting requirements perhaps?) and the technology available at the time meant that they couldn't physically fit the needed specification lights into the existing hole

[FarmerPug]

the coupes quite cheap but 162k seems a bit high for a petrol.
But i still like petrols, its better when you want to have a bit of fun.

Damn, got carried away and placed a bid

They'll look interestingly different if you manage to fit them ok.
