I've gone and done it again!

I bought a Peugeot Partner again.



Honestly, I would have bought a Berlingo, but the Tepee represented the best value. It is in good condition for a 2011 model. There are a few niggles with the interior, but I'm not too worried about them. The rear parcel shelf has a bend in it, which means it doesn't fully hide the boot contents. Also, the storage box that usually sits between the two front seats is missing. Since getting the car one of the covers over the sliding door handle has fallen off. That does annoy me.

I do find that this B9 model is quite different from my old M59. Most of the changes are improvements, like the better fuel consumption. However, I did prefer the internal storage compartments in the older vehicle. Stil,l I am very happy with my "new" purchase.

Now, if only I could find where the USB outlet is hidden.

Same thing happened to me, I bought a 2013 Partner that had been converted for wheelchair access. I also bought a pair of van front seats that came with the special base for the central storage compartment. I found the B9 a lot more like a car to drive & quieter inside but it was also a bit narrower inside the back, probably due to the sound insulation behind the panels.

My old M59 Partner had a net pocket, above the rear wheel arch, where I kept the tyre compressor, spare bulbs and some other tools. On the opposite side, behind a panel, was the location for the scissor jack. The B9 doesn't have either. In consequence, I now keep a box for tools in the back. The front door compartments are a lot less roomy, and the space in the glove box is very restrictive. I don't find the compartment above the instrument panel very useful due to the shape and the difficulty in accessing it. I really need to source a replacement cartridge for between the front seats, to gain some useable storage.

In all other respects the B9 is probably a more refined vehicle. I really like my Tepee.

The usb should be under the stereo, covered by a flap that looks like a cig lighter cover

[Matt Haigh]

I think you'll find the USB in the passenger side of the centre console just behind the curry hook

[Sol]

Not mine Matt, it's on the rhs near the driver, just below the stereo and has a spring loaded flap with AUX on it - conceals the analogue input and the usb socket. As per the pic below.

Your USB port is the same as mine Zion, but at that time the port at that position was an 'extra' you could order.

[Sol]

Ah ok cheers mate, I thought they were all like that on the B9. DOH!

Errr - can you translate into Jockenese - what's the curry hook?

[Sol]

Lol, the curry hook is the wee bag hook on the passenger side of the centre console, where you hang your takeaway bag on to bring it home!
