Top Gear Peugeot Meeting

[@Rmcmbonfas]

Get the chef of suspension up here, so we can fire him ``imediatement``. Hilarious!

[@bonzita23]

This is actually true, previous pug models (sporty cars) had superb suspension, unlike newer models which actually have one of the worst suspensions I have ever seen. Wonder why 307 was never driven on rally? :D

[@wickiezulu]

Actually now curious to know who or which group of people were behind the well regarded high performance Peugeots (along with the good handling of the regular models), presumably they must have mostly moved on to Renault at some point during the late-80s to early/mid-90s.

[@kl75182]

Actually there was a 307 rally car in 2004, a 307 CC, it just wasn't that good.

[@dod_the_angel]

According to Richard Porter (the guy next to Jeremy) they had done multiple takes of the meeting scene and they were all chugging the wine throughout filming so they were all really quite hammered by the end of it

[@tmcmagic5292]

I was about to say, how drunk were they when they made this😂😂

[@dod_the_angel]

@@tmcmagic5292 extremely so. I think porter mentioned sipping his glass constantly during and inbetween takes then having another few glasses. It was also quite hot at the time and those jumpers weren't exactly helping

[@kieranwhite6647]

He said that him and May knew that they didn't have drive for the rest of the day, so they got hammered. Also, the table had as many objects as possible placed on it so that it didn't reflect the green screen of the Eiffel Tower outside the window

[@Chris-vj9kr]

I’m in this scene as the guy who says “Sacre Bleu”. Can confirm the wine intake was real

[@limpet7r63]

I know it's a joke, but this is the most plausible explanation for what happened to Peugeot around the year 2000

[@georgesears2916]

The funny thing is it's not inaccurate. Peugeot just realised they could make more money of bad cheap cars sold though finance initiatives than they could off making good reasonably priced cars. It's also why modern Peugeot drivers are bad drivers, they don't care about driving so they don't care about cars, so they just get the cheapest car with the best finance deals, a Peugeot.

Layth Alkhaer I disagree. While those cars may suck, it's the companies that suck. An entry level car should still be viable i.e. Ford Fiesta, holds at least one world record, used for rally cross obviously modified. But even the non racers are nice for their low price. Toyota carolla or Honda Accord or civic whichever, all fine cars. But these are good non cheese eating surrender monkey cars

[@JAnx01]

Actually, Clarkson is overexaggerating here. With the 3008 and 5008, Peugeot started making better better cars. The interior quality went up significantly, at least. The 308 and 508 are both decent cars, but they're simply not as good as the Opel / Vauxhall Astra and Insignia, both of which sit at the top of their class right now. The interesting thing is that Peugeot, making these inferior cars, purchased Opel recently from GM, just as it started to prosper under them. I think Peugeot will ruin Opel.

I don't really know how many people out there have actually owned a Peugeot but our family have had 4 of them. A Peugeot 405 GLD 2 litre turbo diesel, a Peugeot 106 Xsi, Peugeot 206 SW 1.4 litre and a Peugeot 205 GLD 1.8 litre and I one of things we certainly COULDN'T really level against the French car manufacturer was "uncomfortable". In fact, certainly in the 405 it was probably the most practical and comfortable. Tons of room inside, huge boot space for a saloon car. The road handling system on the 405 was just brilliant and of course the diesel burned at a much slower rate than petrol engines and great If you were stuck in traffic. The 405 was a fantastic car that my Dad had firstly as a company car for 4.5 years but then bought it off the company at the end of the lease period and kept it in the family for another 9 years.

My car is a bordeaux 2019 Peugeot 2008 SUV. I really like it, having for me a great compromise between internal space, and exterior design - especially because my car has that "Slasher smile" grille (used on many Peugeots until late 2019) that I absolutely love!! Also, it is comfortable to drive and agile in traffic. And, my father owns a 2011 Peugeot 3008, a model like the one at 2:25 except gray, and I've driven it occasionally. It is a nice, spacious and comfortable crossover, but what I love the most is the front seats. The driving seat is so comfortable that it's like driving a living room rather than a car. Both cars had no significant reliability problems - mine is almost new so it's obvious, I guess 😅. My dad's 3008 only had replacements for normally deteriorating components (tires, lights, brake pads, and oil changes). They may not be sport cars (recently the new 3008 starred in the Dakar race, however), but they do their job superbly. Of course, it makes sense that the Top Gear boys long the most for Peugeot's 80s/90s sport heritage.
