Peugeot 3008 reviews

Well, not exactly new, 11 months old , 11000 on the clock. First Crossover and Diesel I have had and part exchanged my Petrol Jaguar 2.5 Auto, 6 years old, which was a nice car but horribly expensive to run, £475 /year road tax, 25mpg and expensive servicing. New car is £105 /year road tax, 49 mpg and am quite amazed at this car. Only a 1.6 engine but is as fast as the Jag, as comfortable and has more gadgets which are really helpful, like the heads up display showing your mph and cruise control status. Sitting higher up off the road makes you feel safer. Not sure about the semi-automatic gear box, takes a little getting used to but am getting there. As am now 77 need to stop being a boy racer so am really enjoying this car. The money I am saving on road tax, fuel, insurance and warranty, it was costing some £360 per month for the Jag and only £125 for the Peugot, is £235. I took out a £10000 loan that is costing me £229 per month so The Peugot is paying for itself. A Winner all round

We were looking for a new car which would meet all our needs. We wanted a car that was comfortable, roomy, reliable, economical and one that my wife would enjoy driving as much as myself. We wanted a car that would take us, and copious amounts of 'stuff' to our place in France a few times a year. We wanted a car that would make those long journeys as comfortably as possible. Having looked at several different makes and models we went for the Peugeot 3008 Allure with the semi-automatic gearbox as well as all the other bells and whistles that came with it. Despite previous comments on the gearbox I cannot fault it at all. Would I recommend the car to a friend? YES Would I buy another one? YES In fact the only downside to the car is that it took 6 months from order to delivery and I'm still waiting for the handbook to arrive after 4 months.

This car has been a great success with lots of space and the 150 bhp model has plenty of pulling power for our boat and loaded with 5 adults. All found long journeys comfortable. I enjoy the fact that I am sitting higher on the road and the 18 inch standard tyres give the extra ground clearance for the small amount of off road needed. Electric handbrake has taken a little getting used to but on the whole very happy with the level of spec, the handling and the ride comfort.

My car is an excellent vehicle to own and drive. It is comfortable, pretty fast, easy to drive and economical (on a long journey I am achieving 40mpg +. Comfort is important to me at my age and I can drive all day (with breaks of course) and arrive without any aches and pains. My one complaint is that there could be more leg room for the tear passengers, but then, it dopes have an enormous and very versatile boot.

Bought a brand new one only had it a week. Had lots of cars as been driving 25yrs. Love it. Ride height great. Handling great. Fuel consumption great. Styling fantastic. Interior comfortable and stylish and the best styling. The space inside is great. I'm the think leg room in rear is good and boot enormous. The only grudge is the tightness of where seashells clip in on front. Anyway test drive one. Buy one

This car is comfortable and easy for access. The automatic transmission is good as is the inbuilt satnav. The variable options of boot capacity are very useful as is the ''head-up'' display showing speed, satnav indication and cruise control setting. I am 6'-2" tall and find, unusually, that I am not cramped.The automatic features are sensibly designed and useful.I enjoy driving this car.

plenty of power available when needed, but easy to keep to speed limits, especially when it tells you of economy rate! it is a pity it does not have the space for a spare wheel,perhaps in future they will rearrange the batteries,and create more luggage space.i have the limited edition model, which is well equipped. as i like electrically adjustable drivers seat.

My 3008 was purchased new and driven by me alone, it has now covered 87,023 faultless miles and covers 52.3 mpg on longer runs and 48 mpg when used for local journeys. Needless to say I'm very pleased with the vehicle and will shortly replace it with the new 3008 model available in January, providing, Peugeot have not ruined it in the name of profit.

I have had this car for 2 months. It is an easy car to drive and is very manoeuvrable. Fuel consumption to date is better than expected. The ride is pretty smooth. Whilst the split level boot is a good feature there is a a negative in that a normal sized person needs to watch their head in getting in to the car via the front doors.

Performance is very good. Running Costs - very good mileage per gallon. Comfort is overall very good. So far very reliable. Space and practicality - could do with more cup holders, very small glove compartment. Doesn't have some of the additional features that other cars have for the cost of the vehicle.

Do not be guided by the manufacturers mpg figures. My first 900 miles from new on urban/suburban runs it returned under 35mpg. A second check on a 300 mile journey on m/ways at legal speeds and using c/control it managed 35.7mpg. All these figures based on a 'tank to tank' accuracy.

Bought this car when it was just 12 months old. I am delighted with it. It is comfortable and easy to drive. It has a roomy boot which is important for me. It does 55-60 miles per gallon on a long trip and over 40 mpg around the town. So far it has been 100% reliable.

insufficient power. Sounds as if the engine is labouring in 5th gear. No speed. Quite like the automatic handbrake. Seat belts are difficult to fasten, stuck right down between seat and central console. Previously had a BMW so was probably spoilt.

Wished I had bought the larger engined model as when in the eco setting it can be slugish pulling away, other than that very economical and very large space in the boot. The rear seats fold down so great for getting flat pack furniture or larger items

Very comfortable car, well made seats, good visability. Practical vehicle, able to convert to spacious van type rear with good height. Adjustable height boot floor very useful. Most important it has a spare wheel

We looked at lots of similar cars, but found this one met our needs all round. Leg space in the back seats is great, comfort all round good and lovely to drive.

We are very pleased with this car which is very comfortable, nice interior and features, air con, good to drive and very practical for all we need.

THIS IS OUR FIRST HYBRID VEHICLE. IT HAS PROVED MUCH CHEAPER TO RUN THAN PREVIOUS CAR9RENAULT SCENIC0 IS VERY COMFORTABLE AND HOLDS THE ROAD WELL.

A great family car. This is the second one that we have purchased. Does everything that we want it to do and does just over 48mpg.

I've been very pleased with the comfort and driving poison of this motor. The higher seating position is good for motorway driving.
