Peugeot 107 (2005-2014) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Simple to drive and easy to park	Lots of wind and road noise at speed
Very cheap to buy and run	Jerky 2-Tronic automatic
Perky looks	Entry-level cars are very basic

Quick Summary

The Peugeot 107 (2005-2014) was a compact city car, serving as the entry-point to Peugeot’s line-up. Prioritising low running costs and reliability, it benefited from a shared platform with the dependable Toyota Aygo and Citroen C1, ensuring a robust engine and transmission. It's cheap to run, surprisingly comfortable, and fun to drive in urban environments, offering essential features despite its basic approach.

While excellent for city parking, interior and boot space are tight (139-litres, expanding to 751 litres with folded rear seats). The 1.0-litre three-cylinder engine provides lively performance due to the car's light weight, though it can be noisy at speed. Running costs are exceptionally low, with good fuel economy, very low VED, and cheap insurance, making it an ideal first car or budget runaround. Later models offer Bluetooth and air-conditioning, but older basic trims can be sparse.

Best for: Drivers on a budget, city dwellers, first-time drivers, and those prioritising low running costs and reliability.

Not ideal for: Buyers needing significant boot or passenger space, those undertaking frequent motorway journeys, or those seeking premium features and a quiet ride.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the 107 if: You're on a budget, need a simple and reliable city car, are a first-time driver, or prioritise extremely low running costs.

Consider alternatives if: You require more interior or boot space, frequently drive on motorways, or desire premium features and a quieter cabin.

Competitive Position: The Peugeot 107 (2005-2014) is a strong contender in the budget city car segment, particularly appealing for its exceptional reliability, low running costs, and city-friendly dimensions, largely thanks to its shared platform with the Toyota Aygo. While it lacks the refinement and space of some rivals, its affordability, ease of parking, and cheap maintenance make it an excellent choice for urban dwellers and budget-conscious buyers, especially as a first car.
