there could be a 308 sedan coming too ;)
Correct, I heard it will be assembled in China too.
Uncle Ahwan,
Any technical specs for the new 408 ? Thanks.
Should we wait for 408 on 2010 or just buy 407 now?
Pls comment
Colin, Kenny
I have been impressed by Peugeot 405 since I wasn't afford one. Had to wait for more than 5 yrs till had enough money to buy a cheap/used 405GL. Later on I bought 405 SRi then 405SR.
Being a die-hard Peugeot 405 I'm more impressed with the 308THP than the 407. The former is cheaper some more. At the same time I have another German 2.3l sedan to cart family members around, so buying another sedan is not my priority.
I can not say much more about the 407. But If I have to replace the 'antique' German Sedan, I would prefer to wait and see the 408 first.
