How reliable is the Peugeot Traveller?

We need an eight-seater for our large family, and a Peugeot Traveller 2.0 HDi looks to tick all the boxes. We're looking to buy second hand. However, research with online forums suggests all manner of problems with the Adblue system (tank/pump) and electrical gremlins, including sliding doors that won't open or close. We're looking at the Allure model which has plenty of extra toys, but we need something reliable and dependable. Do you have any experience or advice?

If you are concerned about reliability then I'd recommend the Toyota Proace Verso. It's built at the same factory as the Peugeot but can have its manufacturer warranty extended by up to 10 years if you keep it serviced within the Toyota dealer network: vans.honestjohn.co.uk/van-reviews/toyota/proace-ve.../
