cruiser647 Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 Just a quick question. Just seen the funny ads for the Peogeot 1007. These seem to have been running for a while now - but I have yet to see any on the roads? Anybody seem them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilB Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 Hopefully nobody will buy one, just to show Peugeot really have lost the plot over the last couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] I dont like the cars looks personally, but i hope peugeot sell a zillion. Firstly, because they are daring to be different, and secondly, i wanna park between 2 of them every time i go to the supermarket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarMad Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Not seen one on the road I don't think. Saw them trying to flog a few of the in the Trafford centre last week. Not for me I don't think and my other half wasn't keen either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theduisbergkid Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 A mate is someone big at Pug UK. In his words "1007, a one-trick car that no-one is buying" .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garcon magnifique Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 I've seen one so far. And I laughed at the owner even more than I laugh at CityRover owners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ari Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Not seen a single one. Forgeot they existed to be honest. The French do have a particular knack for finding niche markets that don't actually exist. Avantime anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiser647 Posted November 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Whhooowhhooooo!!!!!! I saw one!!!! nah na na nah na! Saw one on the road, being driven. It was blue. I did not notice the slidey door, as I was in shock! However, it was a test driver as it had Buy Me Now for ony £99 per month or something ridiculus on it! There is a Pug garage down the road in Hatfield, so quite close but, I saw one I saw one................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And must have been a one man band - as he also came up with the advertising campaign. City Bug??? or Bug for the City??? or somesuch catchy line.
