THE Peugeot 307's tall-boy design with its drooping nose is a big change from the hunched pocket-rocket shape of the 306, not only being significantly taller but also wider and with a longer wheelbase. It lacks the nimbleness and chuckability of its predecessor, replacing it with a solidity of build and quietness you could only imagine in the old car. The 307 is powered by a choice of 1.6 or 2.0-litre petrol engines or - in the true Peugeot oil-burner tradition - a 2.0-litre turbo-diesel. It will be interesting to see if 307's Euro credibility and sales success translates to Australia, where an audience weaned on the 306 will have some adjusting to do.
