I have a 2014 308 hatchback 1.6 HDI 92. The temperature gauge never shows more than 75C, including 3 hour drives. I believe it should be at 90C but can't find any definitive information. The handbook says anywhere below the red is "normal". Obviously...
My 2008 207SW with that engine always shows about 90° but I don't know how correct the gauge indication is. It's not a sophisticated bit of kit after all. If the car runs reliably I guess you should only worry when the gauge starts to show a different temp.
