2010 Peugeot 5008 reviews

Peugeot 5008 1.6 HDI 2010

I am 65 and having bought and sold cars over many years, I can say that this is the best new car I have ever purchased. No faults have appeared so far (a rare thing with new cars) and I have come to love the driving experience. The car is very quiet and confortable. The seats and fabric are first class. The spec is very high and the design of the cabin first rate. There are plenty of electronic aids to provide information and to control safety and comfort. The head-up display is particularly helpful, providing info on speed, cruise control and speed limiter settings and distance from the car in front. It ensures you never have to take your eyes off the road. The loading capacity is huge and as a DIY enthusiast, the fact that a 2.4m length of wood can be accommodated, is a boon! On the down side, the large central console virtually prevents sliding across to the passenger side or vice versa, which can be a problem in some tight parking situations. The back adjustment on the rear seats is impossible to operate when on the move, which means having to pull over if a passenger needs to adjust the backrest. I can’t think of anything else to criticise though. If you need a larger vehicle for carrying kids with a large loading capacity for things like camping equipment, then this a great car! Enjoy!
