[Peugeot-L] Re: 207 Official pictures released

I think the styling of the 308 is a huge improvement over the 307, which is my least favorite Peugeot. The 308 looks taut whereas the 307 looks overweight to me. The 207 looks cool, apart from the front end.

Incidentially, the 407 looks much better in real than it does in the photos, apart from the front end. I saw a bunch of 407s in New Zealand when I was there recently. I hope the huge grille is a shortlived  design.
