Peugeot 1007 2005–2009 car dimensions: 3731 mm long, 1686 mm wide and 1620 mm high. Unladen weight is 1,215 kg. Braked towing is 987 kg.
The cabin has a high driving position with good all-round visibility and electric sliding side doors for easy access even in tight spaces. Manual air conditioning is standard on mid and higher trims like Dolce, while digital climate control is standard on Sport or optional. A multifunction display and trip computer are fitted, with optional colour screen navigation. Cruise control and rear parking sensors with four proximity sensors are available as options. No advanced driver aids beyond ESP, ABS and airbags are listed.
Boot space starts at 178 litres with rear seats fully back for maximum passenger room and rises to 364 litres by sliding the independent rear seats forward. Folding the rear seats flat creates a larger load area up to 1048 litres, and the front passenger seat also folds to carry longer items like a bike.
Braked towing capacity reaches 987 kg on 1.4 models and up to 1137 kg on some 1.6 versions, with unbraked limits around 605-650 kg. Payload is typically 305-339 kg depending on engine and transmission.
The car suits light loads and occasional towing for a small hatchback but has no listed heavy-duty cooling or reinforced suspension for demanding work use.
The cabin feels light and airy thanks to the large all-round glass area and high seating position that gives a clear view of the road. Front seats slide a long way and the passenger backrest folds flat into a table, while the two rear seats slide and tumble independently for flexible space. Caméléo kits let you swap seat covers, door panels and dash inserts in minutes to change the look. Manual or digital climate control with charcoal filter keeps the air fresh, and an optional electric sliding panoramic sunroof with two tinted glass panels floods the interior with even more light.

Servicing follows Peugeot intervals of 20,000 miles or two years for petrol models and 12,000 miles or two years for HDi diesels. Oil and filter changes, pollen filter and brake fluid form the core of each visit. timing belt replacement sits at longer mileages according to engine.
Safety kit is strong for the class. Every 1007 has seven airbags, seat-belt pretensioners and load limiters, ESP with traction control, ABS and brake assist as standard. The body structure earned a full five-star Euro NCAP adult rating and the highest points total then recorded for a supermini.
Day-to-day ownership centres on the electric sliding doors and modular cabin. Keep the door tracks clean and lubricated to avoid sticking. Regular checks of the high seating position and all-round visibility help maintain the easy urban character the car was designed for.
