PEUGEOT 306 (1997-02) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.8I XS AC
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The PEUGEOT 306 (1997-02) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.8I XS AC is a compact, three-door family hatchback from Peugeot’s popular 306 range. In the UK used-car market it sits among practical, approachable older hatchbacks, rather than today’s larger SUVs. Its XS trim and air conditioning add a little comfort and sporty character to everyday transport.
The 1.8-litre petrol engine gives it more go than basic small hatchbacks, while the 306 is remembered for comfortable travel and engaging, confidence-inspiring road manners. The three-door layout suits singles, couples and commuters, or a small family happy with less convenient rear access. Compared with a Ford Escort or Vauxhall Astra of its era, it feels agile and distinctive.
