Our Review
Though Peugeot are not known for their workhorse approach to the commercial van market, the Peugeot Boxer 330 L1 will receive no complaints from drivers that want this approach in their van. The Boxer has got a good carrying capacity and loading features, which makes it a dedicated vehicle to its tasks.
The Peugeot Boxer can shift its 1155Kg payload very smartly thanks to its 250Nm of torque at 1500rpm. Not only does this provide the pulling power to shift the Peugeot Boxer away from a stationary position, it makes it a good cargo carrier on the motorway. Not to mention the contribution this power makes to keep the fuel consumption to over 30 miles per gallon at 35.8 mpg. The 2.2 HDi engine is well made and well designed, and unlike many commercial vans of this size it is not too noisy.
The Peugeot Boxer utilises spring leaf suspension which provides a low loading height of 535mm and good load dimensions. Load length is 2670mm, load height is 1662mm, and a width of 1870 narrowing to 1422 between wheel arches. The rear doors assist access greatly by opening a full 180 degrees, together with a nicely located side door. The van has also been designed with McPherson strut suspension and an anti-roll bar which enhances road handling.
The Peugeot Boxer subsequently offers drivers sharper steering for a van of its size, and the dashboard mounted gear stick sets the driving experience up nicely. The Peugeot Boxer is a highly pleasurable van to pilot around town as well as being a good stable runner on the longer motorway trip.
The Peugeot Boxer provides plenty of storage options in the front for the driver, and the dashboard mounted gear stick means sliding across to exit from the passenger door is easy to do if required. A basic but adequate CD stereo system comes as standard and is controllable from the steering column. The seat belts are height adjustable and a driver's side airbag is fitted.
The breaking system comes with ABS, EBA, and EBD as standard, providing more control to the driver, which is arguably the best way to avoid accidents and running up associated repair and insurance costs.
The Peugeot Boxer is a very accomplished van, with intelligent thought out design which appears to have been designed around the driver and the payload.

August 06 2018
Overall it’s a very nice van would have liked a proper locking glovebox instead of open trays on the passenger side not vanaramas fault just the way the manufacturer makes them . But overall it’s a nice drive no road noise their is a lot of extras The only thing I would get on my next van would be a reverse camera because the van is almost a meter longer than my last van but their is reverse sensors on the back so you do get used to it .

Tele Barros Peugeot Peugeot Boxer
August 31 2017
I know we have three Peugeots in our fleet. If all goes well, should be getting a fourth in the near future. I was skeptical at first as I've always had a Ford Transit or Mercedes Sprinter. But I would have to say the Peugeot Boxer is far superior to the Ford and the Mercedes. 1 carries more weight 2 more miles PL 3 more space between wheel arches - better for pallets. 4 comfort of the drive is also better than the other two.

I really rate the van, although I've only been driving it for only a couple of weeks. Any problems raised in other reviews (too few cup holders, handbrake in way, visibility of speedometer, etc) I disagree with.

-
George Mulloy Peugeot Peugeot Boxer
May 17 2016
I've only had the vehicle for just over one week and used it infrequently due to circumstances, but initial thoughts are impressive with the only down side at present being the location of the hand break (at the right) which I'm sure I will get used to. Overall it appears good value for money and a big increase in size compared to similar prices for a Vauxhall Vivaro.
-
Alan Brooks Peugeot Peugeot Boxer
May 17 2016
I used to have Renault Master and decided on this van because it had more comprehensive specs in the cab for a cheaper price. So far all seems good and I have to say that I'm happy with everything so far.
-
Steven Woods Peugeot Peugeot Boxer
May 10 2016
I've been running it 4 weeks, it seems noisy on start up but after a minute or so it's ok. Initially I found the viewing of the speedometer impossible, you have to lean slightly to the right to see it so this has now become my driving position. The plastic flap under the steering column can sometimes be caught by your feet when operating the pedals and I feel like I'm missing something with only 1 drinks holder. Overall even with these findings I would order the van again, the space in the back is awesome, I really do like it.

Gary Chalmers Peugeot Peugeot Boxer
April 26 2016
My new van has given me the extra room I so badly needed. Having a built-in SatNav as well as Bluetooth has been very handy as my phone rings non-stop. I also had the pleasure of dealing with John Molloy, who organised the process of getting my new van.

We are using the van to move furniture, house clearances, car boots etc. and it is ideal for these jobs. Thank you for giving us a great deal.

Phillip Ronald jones Peugeot Peugeot Boxer
April 15 2016
It's very practical and a joy to drive. The power steering makes it so easy to manoeuvre it's almost like driving a cloud, also the parking sensors are an added bonus in a van as you know how close you are to an obstacle behind. The space in the back is brilliant, as a plumber it's handy for me as I can fit full length pipes in the back. I've also been able to fit 4.4 meter lengths of wood in as it's got an over head bulk. All in all I think it's a great van.
-
Darren Stanley Peugeot Peugeot Boxer
April 15 2016
I'm a plasterer so the van is ideal for 8x4 plaster boards plus it has loads of room for all the other kit and material we carry. Good bulk head for power tools and screws etc. You won't win a races with it, It's steady to drive. A great tool. Loads of cab bits I didn't expect too including a USB port, hands free, Sat-Nav, aircon, speed camera aware and rear parking sensors. The seats are comfy too. Overall a really good price for a really good van.
