## Why this model

The Peugeot 4007 is essentially a rebadged Mitsubishi Outlander, which means you're getting Japanese reliability and a robust 4x4 system underneath the French badge. It's a practical 7-seater SUV that offers decent space and capability for its age and price. While it's not the most refined or modern SUV, it's a solid, no-nonsense choice if you need a versatile family vehicle with some off-road potential without breaking the bank.

## What you should pay

Given its age, the 4007 has already hit the bottom of its depreciation curve. Prices are very stable, meaning you're buying into a segment where you won't lose much money in the short to medium term. Expect to pay a bit more for lower mileage or top-spec GT models, but the overall range is quite tight.

## Which trim to buy

The GT trim is the one to go for if you can find a good example. It typically comes with more creature comforts like leather seats, climate control, and better infotainment compared to the SE or Sport trims. Since the price difference between trims on a car of this age is minimal, the GT offers the best value for money in terms of features and comfort without significantly increasing your purchase price.

## What to check before you buy

- DPF issues (if not driven regularly on motorways)
- Clutch wear on manual models
- Suspension component wear (bushes, shock absorbers)
- EGR valve problems
- Minor electrical gremlins
- Rust on older examples

## Running costs

Running costs for a 2.2 HDi diesel will include fuel at around 25-28p per mile (based on £1.50/litre diesel and 40mpg). Road tax (VED) for a 2011 model will be based on CO2 emissions, typically around £250-£300 per year. Insurance will be moderate, likely in the £400-£800 range depending on your personal circumstances and no-claims bonus.

## Key stats

- **Fuel Type**: Diesel
- **Horsepower**: 156 hp
- **Mpg**: 38-40 mpg
- **Reliability Score**: Average
- **Safety Rating**: 4 Stars (Euro NCAP 2007 for Outlander platform)

## Trim comparison

| Trim | Price new | Price used | Key features |

## Depreciation forecast

| Year | Estimated value | Retention |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2026 | £4,000 | 0% |
| 2027 | £3,500 | 12.5% |
| 2028 | £3,000 | 25% |
| 2029 | £2,500 | 37.5% |
| 2030 | £2,000 | 50% |

The Peugeot 4007 is already at the very bottom of its depreciation curve. This means you're buying a car that has lost most of its value, and future depreciation will be slow in absolute terms. You're unlikely to lose a significant amount of money on it over a few years of ownership, making it a financially sound choice if you plan to keep it for a while.

Total value lost since new: 50%.
