Peugeot Partner 1.6 Estate

Partner Combi is Peugeot's take on the van/MPV conversion. The Partner's robustly built - as you'd expect with van DNA. Pick of the range is the 1.4 petrol engine which is as economical as the 1.9 diesel, but quicker, more refined and a better drive.

The Partner's 1.4 petrol is zesty, but the latest 2.0 HDi diesel copes well in all conditions and is the model to go for. It's a punchy performer and - thanks in part to Partner Combi's light body.

The Partner has plenty of storage bins and casual stowage. Fold down the seats for a massive and flexible load area, capable of transporting, everything from filing cabinets to beds. Bulky objects fit in easily, thanks to a low tailgate sill.
