    year 2008, mileage: 68k miles.
    test drove one today and I was impressed with it. good spec for the price I was being offered.
    However, it being French I'm a bit nervous, can anyone with any experience of this car either re-assure me or confirm my nervousness?

    Run Forrest Run! :D

    I dunno in fairness (and I think they're 1.8). One of the main upsides to French cars are their diesel engines. I can't imagine a petrol one being much cop but have no first hand experience of them.

    If you can handle the mpg's (around 35 mpgs) then they are fine...no worries about turbo failure..dual mass flywheels dpf's etc...:)

    yeah, I can handle the 35mpg levels, I don't do massive mileage at all, and certainly not enough to merit a diesel. DPF and flywheel error free:D
