The Peugeot 107: Birth of a modern city car
Launched in 2005, the Peugeot 107 is the result of an ambitious three-way collaboration between PSA Peugeot Citroën and Toyota. This joint project, developed at the Czech plant in Kolín, also gave rise to the Citroën C1 and the Toyota Aygo. This strategic alliance allows Peugeot to offer a compact and economical city car , perfectly meeting the new urban mobility needs of the 21st century.
With its compact dimensions (3.43 meters long), the 107 stands out for its exceptional maneuverability and controlled fuel consumption. Its sleek design, designed by Peugeot teams, displays the brand's aesthetic codes while retaining its own personality. The vehicle quickly achieved commercial success, attracting urban customers looking for practicality and economy.
This city car accompanies the evolution of travel habits, particularly in urban areas where compactness becomes a major asset . Its production will extend over nearly a decade, confirming the relevance of this positioning on the European automobile market.
Peugeot: The legacy of a century-old lion
When the 107 was launched, Peugeot drew on more than two centuries of industrial expertise. Founded in 1810 by Jean-Pierre and Jean-Frédéric Peugeot, the family business first distinguished itself in metallurgy before conquering the automobile industry at the end of the 19th century. The famous lion, a symbol of strength and quality, has adorned the brand's products since 1858.
The 2000s marked a period of strategic renewal for the Sochaux-based manufacturer. Following the success of iconic models like the 205 and 206, Peugeot diversified its range into the city car segment with the 107. This strategy was part of an effort to adapt to new environmental constraints and changes in urban lifestyles.
The alliance with Toyota to develop the 107 perfectly illustrates Peugeot's ability to adapt to contemporary industrial challenges . This collaboration allows the French lion to offer a technically advanced vehicle while controlling development costs, demonstrating once again the brand's ingenuity in the face of the challenges of the modern automotive market.
The anecdote: A star of French driving schools
The Peugeot 107 holds a particularly unique record in the history of French automobiles: that of becoming the preferred learning car of French driving schools. This unexpected popularity is explained by its dimensions, perfectly suited to learning to drive in an urban environment, but also by a remarkable technical feature.
Driving instructors quickly adopted this model for its excellent handling and ease of handling. Its light and precise power steering, combined with optimal visibility, makes it an ideal teaching tool for learner drivers. This widespread adoption by driving instructors significantly contributes to the model's sales.
Even more surprisingly, the 107 quickly became popular with young, recently graduated drivers. Its modern and dynamic image, reinforced by targeted advertising campaigns , made it a popular choice for a first car. This generational adoption created a unique cultural phenomenon: seeing a blue 107 parked in front of a high school or university became a daily sight throughout France.
The sociological impact of this small vehicle goes far beyond its simple role as a means of transportation. It accompanied an entire generation in its first steps toward independence, creating indelible memories linked to learning freedom of movement. This emotional dimension partly explains the collectors' enthusiasm for model cars of this seemingly innocuous but culturally significant model.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.

What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
