The biggest problem for these cars is "anti pollution fault" going by peugeotcentral.co.uk. which mine has suffered from and I am a member on there.
This arises from slow driving to what ever else the car feels like.Made of tin,noisy brakes,lots of road noise and the bugger dosnt want to change gear half the time.I will never ever have another.If the 180 has the same problems it will never reach the iconic status of the 205 1.9 gti.Saying that I purchased a 309gti which I had wanted for quite a long time,drove it from Oldham to S-O-T home and shoved it through the auction within a week because it was cack !.It is supposed to be live and learn lol.
