My Peugeot once lost a rear wheel driving along the A34 at Marton. Incredible that the efficiency sensors even detected a long straight road, and shedded what proved to be an optional wheel to reduce rolling resistance almost immediately. It really worked too, as I didn't use any more petrol at all that day
I watched that happen to a Bedford Midi in the 90s. It was rear wheel drive; the whole half-shaft came out of the axle and the driver didn't seem to notice.
@@greg1439 Now I'm imagining wheels cartoonishly falling off my first car! XD The bearings were so bad, it sounded like steel dustbins rolling down the road.
I have a peugot and my turbo charger is losing pressure whenever I'm at high rpm. That means I can never go fast enough to put myself in serious danger. Great safety feature! 👍
@@ThatSilentGuyThat's a safety feature to let you know you're driving waaay too fast for a 107. If you keep going faster I think it gently pops the airbags to tell you to slow down.

A close friend of mine once had a 206 and it had cost so much in repairs that he eventually sold it. i think this is an amazing safety feature because its stops you from driving your peugeot, which reduces the chance you get in an accident.
+shad0wpk02 Pretty straightforward if you're used to roundabouts already. Same as a standard roundabout, except there are two. Just yield whenever you have to cross a yield line, else you have right of way. And use them turn signals :) There are a few of these in France, usually on weirdly shaped intersections in which a perfect circle wouldn't fit, or just for technical traffic flow reasons: It offers a shortcut for cars that want to take a left onto the busiest of both roads without crossing the path of the cars coming from their right. (in a scenario where cars drive on the right side of the road like continental Europe) Here's an aerial shot of one in Nantes, FR: www.google.fr/maps/@47.2332506,-1.5658303,93m/data=!3m1!1e3

Our Peugeot Partner has an incredible safety feature which is that the driver's window to avoid breaking emits sounds in the form of squeaks and * cracks * and as a Preventive method, it no longer rises or falls, making you have to operate the Crystal manually by hand, quite brilliant in my opinion.
Yeah. Stupid right?! I drive a Peugeot 307 and I put it on the steering wheel itself, in the middle where the horn is. Can see everything on the navigation system so much better without disturbing the view!
In my Peugeot I mount the sat nav behind me so it doesn't obscure my view at all. Things seem to get very noisy/bumpy/screamy when I'm looking at it though.
@@alkaholic4848 Oh that's probably a smart choice. I never thought of that actually. I'll try on the motorway today while on my way home from work. Thanks for the tip fellow Peugeot driver!
In my Peugeot I've replaced that annoying mirror in the middle with my satnav. Much better viewing experience rather than the distracting view of what's behind me.
@@ollielewis8590 Yeah well i tried that but because can't see the satnav from up there, i get my glasses in the centre console. when i start looking for my glasses the ride gets really uncomfortable..

There's a double mini roundabout in the village I live in and it's almost always the Peugeot drivers that wait the longest and then cut someone off or don't indicate.
geez, why does ANY place in the world even have a "double mini roundabout"? i'd say it means one must put down a nice double donut burnout before proceeding (attention peugeot drivers: this will not work with your car!)
My 2016 308 had this great feature where the AC stopped working, making you not have to worry about the temperature in the car because it wasn't something you could affect. Later on the AdBlue system just prevented the car from starting at all, making it probably one of the safest cars on the market but not on the roads.
That's a common feature the wire for the outside temperature snaps thus stopping you and your car from knowing how incredibly hot it is and stop you worrying about climate change.
Ive had real bad depression and some times get silly thoughts every time i feel low i watch this video and im back to me again. Ive seen it a number of times but never gets old
At some point my 206 developed an amazing feature: if you wanted to use the indicators the headlights must be turned on. Also the CD player had an AI feature which allowed it to only play the disks it preferred. Lastly, the battery failed in two occasions when we needed to return home from holidays. It was such a great car that I gave it for free. I advised the new owner (first car buyer) to use the money he was supposed to pay me for a thorough service inspection.

To be fair, the 407 took the beating well, by the look of it. The damage wasn't that bad. I actually owned a 407 and liked the design at the time. The ride was very comfortable too. And.... let's not forget that Richard Hammond gave it a glowing review for Top Gear when it came out (series 4, episode 10) :)
They're not bad. Top Gear is full of crap. Clarkson actually praised the 206 as a good car in one of the earlier seasons when it was launched. And the 206 is Peugeot's best selling cars ever. Nothing wrong with them. Was my first car too and I bet thousands of other around the world. Don't believe Too Gear. It's just a TV show for entertainment. Clarkson and May don't have to bother with Peugeot. They can troll it was much as they want. Because they have millions to buy Ferraris and Lambos

My Peugeot 508 Has this brilliant feature where it would leak oil everyday and I would need to pour new oil every month, this is brilliant as this secures that my car is always running on the freshest possible substances. Great safety feature
My dad's 406 used to cut out when coming to a stand still so it would save fuel and not only that the often immobiliser jammed so he could arrive at work later and avoid the rush hour traffic which could have led him to have an accident. Excellent safety features.
Me too. If Brits think we wouldn't be able to handle double mini roundabouts, well... I don't know if they are right or not, but I'm not eager to find out.
Just this summer one of my relatively short journeys I overtook three cars going way slow. All Peugeots driven by old geezers and every time I imagined how they mutter out "maniac" as I pass them. By third I could not stop laughing for a good while.
4:06 Now, as a Dutchman i've never seen a double mini roundabout. What's the purpose of it? Why not make one big roundabout or place traffic lights or whatever.
Yeah, like my sons BMW E93 330D SE HARDTOP CONVERTIBLE COST LESS THAN THAT!! (his was under 7K)Plus its got FSH and 75K on the clock. A serious lot of car for the money!!
As an American, I've never seen or heard of one of these until this video. Are they really necessary? Looks difficult to understand from their camera angles, but it's probably not that bad in person.
This is not a photoshop. its called the "Magic Roundabout" located in Hemel Hempstead (www.hemeltoday.co.uk/webimage/1.3397477.1329303422!/image/1307923931.jpg_gen/derivatives/landscape_595/1307923931.jpg) It works well ... but the first time you use it a change of underwear can some times be required.
They were not in a garden center at all. The camera shots of people in a garden center had been edited in from a real one, but the camera shots of J&J reading the "news"paper had been made in the studio. The parking area was a fake. Most likely built in the studio area. I also bet the village with the double mini roundabout has never ever seen so much traffic, like on this day ;)

Oh... Wait a minute...
A close friend of mine once had a 206 and it had cost so much in repairs that he eventually sold it. i think this is an amazing safety feature because its stops you from driving your peugeot, which reduces the chance you get in an accident.
My brother's 206 GTI had a great safety feature. The battery would go flat on a cold winters day to stop him stop sliding or skidding on black ice.
I don't know what Jeremy's complaining about. He pressed the button to increase the temperature and that's exactly what happened!
he isnt complaining
he loved the design future
He wasn't complaining! That's indeed a great design feature, as mentioned by Jezza. Really authentic.

+Clockwork Ninja even germans have no clue
Norwegian.. Never seen one in my life
Never seen one in the netherlands also. I'd probably panic and cause a massive crash in the middle. How do they work?
+shad0wpk02 Pretty straightforward if you're used to roundabouts already. Same as a standard roundabout, except there are two. Just yield whenever you have to cross a yield line, else you have right of way. And use them turn signals :)
There are a few of these in France, usually on weirdly shaped intersections in which a perfect circle wouldn't fit, or just for technical traffic flow reasons: It offers a shortcut for cars that want to take a left onto the busiest of both roads without crossing the path of the cars coming from their right. (in a scenario where cars drive on the right side of the road like continental Europe)

As Peugeot driver I can confirm I am currently watching this in a ditch.
THE REMARKABLE DETAILS OF THE 307CC:it was a succesfful sales car in germany and with 206 cc were a boom of sales coupe cabriolet cars with metal roof in the world. The metal roof give more weight to the car so not superfast car but the metal roof is not easy to damage as canvas roof in the streets.Peugeots cc were whim cars.Nice cars to the beach no to rainy london england.The roof mechanism of the 307CC was produced by the company named "CTS Car Top Systems", which produces the roof mechanisms of Ferrari F430, Mercedes SLK, SL and Porsche Boxster, Chevrolet Corvette, Cadillac XLR and Lexus' convertible series.
The rear led lights of the 307CCs were produced by the German company "AL Automotive Lightening", which produced the rear led lights of the Audi R8 in 2008.
The tiptronic automatic transmission of the 2.0 136 hp version of the 307CC was manufactured by Porsche.
The piston rods, pistons and other piston elements in the engine of the 2.0 180 hp Sport version of the 307CC were manufactured by "Mahle", which manufactures piston sets in Ferrari's Formula 1 vehicles.
Peugeot participated in the World Rally Championships in 2004 and 2005 with 307CC. Peugeot equipped the 2.0 180 hp Sport version with a 4x4 rally kit, boosting its engine with turbo and reaching 580 NM torque and 315 hp. The 307CC WRC won the Rally Finland with Marcus Grönholm in 2004, the Rally of Finland with Marcus Grönholm in 2005, and the Rally of Japan with Marcus Grönholm in 2005.

My 2016 308 had this great feature where the AC stopped working, making you not have to worry about the temperature in the car because it wasn't something you could affect. Later on the AdBlue system just prevented the car from starting at all, making it probably one of the safest cars on the market but not on the roads.
That's a common feature the wire for the outside temperature snaps thus stopping you and your car from knowing how incredibly hot it is and stop you worrying about climate change.

At some point my 206 developed an amazing feature: if you wanted to use the indicators the headlights must be turned on. Also the CD player had an AI feature which allowed it to only play the disks it preferred. Lastly, the battery failed in two occasions when we needed to return home from holidays. It was such a great car that I gave it for free. I advised the new owner (first car buyer) to use the money he was supposed to pay me for a thorough service inspection.

“Gave me a little push to let me know he was coming past” 😂😂😂😂
My cousin just bought a Peugeot 107 for 8 Grand! 8 GRAND! What a maniac!
Even if you move the decimal point one place that's still too much. He or she needs to be accompanied when out of the house.
Yobo!
That's a mistake
Thats terrible!! Could have bought a proper car for that much. A very decent proper car in fact! A fool and their money....
Yeah, like my sons BMW E93 330D SE HARDTOP CONVERTIBLE COST LESS THAN THAT!! (his was under 7K)Plus its got FSH and 75K on the clock. A serious lot of car for the money!!
This is gold. I just couldnt stop laughing after they mounted the gps systems directly in front of the drivers place xd
This is just hillarious haha

I like how they went from making fun of Peugeot drivers to making fun of the French for an entire hour long special.
What the hell is the purpose of a double mini roundabout....
Honey Badger it is like a single roundabout, but double. Realy troublesome to drive trough...the council should do something about this.
As an American, I've never seen or heard of one of these until this video. Are they really necessary? Looks difficult to understand from their camera angles, but it's probably not that bad in person.
But what's the purpose...?
I think a normal one will do just as fine.
This is not a photoshop. its called the "Magic Roundabout" located in Hemel Hempstead

It works well ... but the first time you use it a change of underwear can some times be required.
I guess the purpose is to turn around in all directions when ever you want.
7:17 This is just how you get places in Forza Horizon
I don’t need roads and it are just shortcuts🙄😂
I like how they just don't care that they're holding everyone up and smashing their cars
Suspect they're paying those people pretty well
The parked cars in the garden centre were most likely placed there intentionally. They won’t be the public’s cars!
@@user-ot4wm2fh8g that red MR2 is one of their previous challenge cars and had that damage already. The other cars probably were too.
They were not in a garden center at all. The camera shots of people in a garden center had been edited in from a real one, but the camera shots of J&J reading the "news"paper had been made in the studio. The parking area was a fake. Most likely built in the studio area. I also bet the village with the double mini roundabout has never ever seen so much traffic, like on this day ;)
