Peugeot 807: family MPV, engines and trims
Peugeot 807 (2002–2014) — a spacious family MPV with sliding doors, co-developed with the Citroën C8, Fiat Ulysse and Lancia Phedra. We look at the engines, trims and what to check when buying a used 807.
807 in brief
The Peugeot 807 replaced the 806 and is still considered one of the roomiest MPVs in its class. The interior can accommodate between five and eight people, depending on the configuration, and features sliding doors on both sides.
Technically, the 807 is very similar to the Citroën C8, Fiat Ulysse and Lancia Phedra, so many parts and servicing experience are shared. It's a fairly common sight on the used market.
Which trim to choose
Early models (2002–2008) have the original front end and simpler equipment, while the facelifted versions (from 2008) got a new front end, improved interior and more modern engines.
If you're after a more modern car, it's worth opting for the facelifted version. It's important that the specific car has been well-maintained and that the seating configuration suits your needs.
Engines and gearboxes
Petrol engines — 2.0 (around 136hp), 2.2 (around 158hp) and 3.0 V6 (around 207hp). They're fine for daily driving, but diesel engines are better for most.
Diesel HDi engines — 2.0 (around 110–136hp) and 2.2 (around 128–170hp). These are the most popular choices for their economy and pulling power with a full load.
Gearbox — manual or automatic.
What to check when buying a used 807
Test the doors: they should open and close smoothly, without rattling or error messages.
In HDi diesel engines, check the fuel system, the particulate filter (if present) and the sump.
Inspect the electrical equipment, air conditioning and bodywork for corrosion. Ask for all service documents.
