Underneath the automotive anorak, this is the new Peugeot 207 SW, caught cold-weather testing in Finland.The new 207 estate shares its underpinnings with the Citroen C3. Like the standard 207, it will be available with the option of a glass roof or a standard tin roof. Expect it to look somewhat like a shrunken 407 SW, with wraparound-style rear glasshouse, but without that car's massive front overhang.
As you can see from the 207 SW's reasonably compact dimensions, it's not a massive load-lugger, just a slightly more practical alternative to the five-door hatch, like its predecessor. While the 206 hatch is to stay in production as a budget car, manufacture of the 206 SW in Europe has recently stopped. The new car is expected to go on sale at the end of 2007.
