This stylish foray into the executive car market from Peugeot has been beset with all sorts of problems from the start. Pre-production test cars were beset with handling problems, something that has since been sorted though it has done little to warm the introduction of the large Peugeot into this competitive market segment.

Despite this the 607 is not a bad attempt at the executive car genre, with loads of space and a suitably luxurious cabin. Standard specification is high, as it needs to be to tempt buyers away from traditional executive brands, and the pricing is keen. The styling is certainly eye-catching and neat touches and attention to detail like the boot release button in the model badge make it feel special. Refinement too is good from all engines in a range that includes a 2.2-litre petrol, a 2.2-litre HDi and a 3.0-litre V6. The cabin is whisper quiet with double glazing keeping the noise out. Realistic pricing and individuality are likely to win it buyers, though many will still prefer the kudos of a German marque rather than the Lion from Peugeot.
