The 207 Sport HDi 110 hatchback and SW Sport and Outdoor HDi 110 models are now replaced by new versions fitted with an improved manual transmission and more powerful 112bhp diesel engine.

This new diesel engine meets the requirements of the Euro 5 emission standards and, according to Peugeot, benefits from a number of improvements over the 110bhp unit. These include increased performance as well as quieter operation, while at the same time reducing CO2 emissions.

Thanks to its new hi-tech design, the delivers a respectable 61.4mpg on the combined cycle when fitted to the hatch or SW variants, and outputs 119g/km CO2.

The revised line-up is already on sale, priced from 15,645 on-the-road.
