Hope you enjoy guys, Plenty more videos landing this week so please check them out when they land.
Hi, do you have a website you sell the cars on or is it autotrader/eBay?
Hi Lee I'm the new owner of the car. Thank you
Thank you, yes, I have enjoyed this. You mentioned that you disliked the Rotella tyres that were on the back. There seems to be an infinity of cheap 'ditchfinder' tyres around. You mentioned that you spent £84 on 2 new tyres. Is there a particular brand of value for money tyre that you tend to prefer, or do you steer clear of anything other than very well known brands ? Thank you again for video.
Ah part 2, lovely. It turned out to be a cracking car for the money. I wonder why it went to auction?
Was it a dealer maybe? Too high miles for their forecourt?
And much respect to you for adding a fair profit and not being greedy. So many times i've been beaten to a private sale by a greedy dealer who just adds 4 grand to the price of a 5 grand purchase, and puts it back up for sale the same day! Not even a wash!
It was main agent part ex so too many miles for them to go on with hence off to the auction. Thanks for watching NB👍👍
Keep the videos coming mate.. decent content so far...proper down to earth.
Thanks Gizmo 👍
Hi Lee. Would like to see more of your expert mechanical side and explain simple things like cleaning up the brakes and sorting the steering straight - thanks again - great channel.
thinking about getting a 3008 as next car so good video to see ... People dont like the 1.6hdi , but if you service it on time and change the oil it stops strainer getting blocked keeping turbo nice ... great video
Good cars if looked after properly. Had a 65 plate diesel from new for 3 years and have a 68 plate hdi eat 8 auto for 5 years, no problems.
The model you have needs proper 4 wheel alignment as they come out the factory wrong! The semi auto box was well known for being problematic and, the urea tank in the boot had a habit of needing replacement. My current one has the Aisin electronic auto box which is brilliant.
The hdi are brilliant on fuel too.
Front struts were a known problem from new and were a free replacement item.
Hi steve, yes I have driven one of the later ones with the auto box and its a big improvement over this one, thanks for watching
Great. Good start for 2023.
Top man, always love these videos - pleased this one has worked out for you!
Thanks Al gore, we took a little gamble on it but its paid off, just shows there are still some auction bargains to be had. thanks again for watching 👍👍
Class Channel Lee, keep it up pal, really enjoying these, looking forward to more. 👍🏻
Thanks martyn, nearly as good as your sandwiches 👍👍😁
Hi Lee I am the new owner of the car. Thank you

Nice one Lee. Got the notification bell on so looking forward to new vids this week.
Thanks T Wiz 👍
Lee that Peugeot looks a beauty. So glad no nasty surprises on your test drive. Thanks for the warning about that make of crap tyre. Roll on the next one Lee.👍👍
Yes we stocked them in the earlier days and had a few go defective on us with customers, we quickly dropped them for another supplier and never looked back. Thanks for watching again gary 👍👍
Decent honest reviews. I enjoy your videos mate 👍 not a bad old motor that.
Thanks Daz Will keep the videos coming
Look forward to the next video, keep up the good work and I hope your channel keeps growing 😊

Thanks dale, 👍👍👍
Really enjoying these videos. Keep them coming Lee.
Thanks, will do!
Another good video lee ,great knowledge you have and thanks for sharing it . Peugeot were always good at interiors back in the day . I had a 309 …. SRI I think in black … the 205 1.9 GTI must be worth a few quid now ,if you can get your hands on one .. I’ve not looked ,but I expect the silly money now . Good luck with the channel in 2023 . 😊
Funny enough I was looking at 205gti's and 309 gti today. Fantastic cars . Thanks for watching gary
Another great video Lee keep them coming and you should do well on you tube
Thanks graham
Another cracking video Lee, thanks for that. Should be a nice profit in that one for you and, someone will end up with a decent motor and one that's nice and cheap to tax and run.
Thanks Alastair, yes should be a decent motor for someone 👍👍
Great video mate, good bargain for someone. Great channel
Thanks John MC 👍👍
Nice one Lee - a nice little example you got there. You shouldn't have any trouble shifting this. Keep up the great content mate!
Thanks phil yes am sure it should move fast
Really enjoyed the vid, many thanks
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching karen
Another great video. Car looks like its done half the miles. Don't forget about my Astra pal. Keep up the good work.
it is a clean one to be fair. I have not forgot about the astra Simon I will contact you later in the week, I have come back to madness in the workshop and we are just starting to get ahead now 😁 Thanks for watching again and speak soon
I never buy a new car. Your videos are very educating. Great tips (although I am not in any way, experienced enough, to take my chance at an auction).
I had a Ford Fusion (Semi-Auto). This was such a lovely car to drive (8 years at time of purchase). Scrapped 2 years later, as gear box went.
That's all you want from buying a car (runaround). An honest trader and you know that the MOT stands and history is legit.
I even purchased a Peugeot once from a garage (Be careful to read what your warranty covers, only certain parts of the car). The exhaust tied by a rag! This had been previously repaired also. Shameful on an Automatic ££££
Enjoying your videos.... Obviously I don't know you but you seem like a really good honest guy and car trader, so either you're exactly that or a good actor, that is a compliment just to confirm 😂... Anyway, looking forward to more videos and keep doing what your doing 👍
I appreciate that👍👍
Great video and great result with the potential margin coming up! 👍
Thanks glen, yes all being well it should turns us a nice profit. Thanks for watching
Yet again another great upload mate 👌👌
Thanks Stevie 😁
I actually don't mind the mk1 3008, I would have one of these as I've had a lot of childhood memories with the one we had, it was the first year it came out we bought one brand new and loved it, overall nice find they're good cars.
Nice car Lee. Great buy 👍
Thanks nigel,
Looks pretty decent for what it is, though personally I find the prospect of a high miles french car loaded with electronics absolutely terrifying. Fingers crossed it makes it to the end of the statuary period without issues. As a matter of interest since it came up in the video, would a video on the best budget tyres to go for and the ones to avoid be something you could do?
Yes I was thinking about covering a video on budget tyres a few weeks ago, thanks for reminding me. Will work on that this month. Thanks for watching Matt
We are actually on the lookout for one of these ! , where will it be advertised ?
Thanks
Joshua
I had a new 308 Meridian auto on Motability a few years ago. The auto box was awful from new, eventually the dealer replaced a couple of parts on the box, but it was no better. In the end I threatened to park it across their main entrance and chuck the keys down the grid. They finally fitted a new box but my trust in the car, Peugeot and the main dealer was long gone. I'll never have another Peugeot and certainly would never use that dealer again. Anyway, Lee as always a great video, keep them coming.
Thanks steve, yes the auto boxes are not the best for smoothness in PSA cars. However the later stuff I have driven is a vast improvement, thanks for watching 👍👍
the 3008 cars normally knocking at the front is the suspension silver rod rocks back and forwards there is video's on youtube with the issue
Great mate, the body work seems pretty tidy on it for the mileage too
Yes its really clean to be fair Tony, thanks for watching
I’d love one of these I’ve currently got a 2011 3008 manual with 140k, absolutely love it but mobility issues mean I’m in the market now for an automatic
I had a Berlingo with that gearbox and found it so indecisive! The 3008 will make a great car once it’s all been cleaned
Should do barry, thanks for watching again 👍👍
Top channel Lee. ❤
Thanks tubeshots
i remember you getting this at auction not a bad car you can refurb the wheels yourself if they are pitted ive seen guys do it with a wheel grinder chops garage did some himself
Yes I watched that one, I could do it but its the time it takes and getting round to doing it, running the garage does not really give me that free time. I would just get them done by a third party. On this we are going to leave them, if it becomes a issue from buyers (being mentioned) and causing a missed sale then maybe think again. Sometimes its easier to discount slightly and let the customer sort it, most of the time they end not doing it and just keep the money😁 . Thanks for watching
@@carukchannel i know what you mean when busy
I remember when these came out. My grandad bought a brand-new 3008 HY with every option and it was pretty luxurious!
Yes when these and also the ford kuga came out they took a big chunk of the market away from the qashqai, thanks for watching Adon
@@carukchannel 🤗
Lee the peugeo car you need a road side triangle and Jack to jack the car up
Brilliant. Definitely a chunk of profit in that one 👍
yes should be a good earner
Well done bargain price for that one you done well 👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
thought it looked half decent on ur last video best of luck moving it on for a decent price Lee!
Thanks alun
Nice one, win some, lose some 👍
Cracking video Lee.
How much did you eventually sell to car for?
It’s great to see that you have bought a bargain of a car from auction which did not cost a small fortune to fix and sell on. Regular car maintenance and this car could last at least another 100k miles. 😊
Looks like we have a customer for it at £2600, Thanks for watching 👍👍
The 1.6 8v HDi Pug motor is the new PD. Absolute bomb proof - adblu, DPF less so but the block is very hardy and simple.
With a manual box I buy them 120’s all day.
Yes its a decent engine, maybe would not go as far as bomb proof as i have a few with oil pump issues, snapped belts and turbos failing but compared to alot of other modern diesel engines they are decent. Thanks for watching exgtt
Hiya, thanks for the reply. Are you talking about the newer 8v Pug motor? I’ve experienced oiling problems of the older 16v motor. Cheers
There should be decent profit in that, the car looks to have been maintained and given it’s 10 years old must have a fair bit of service left in it. If it’s a ball, joint a couple of tyres and a service, winner, winner!
Yes looking like a decent purchase, thanks for watching again lot 76
Looking for something similar,sounds a decent buy.
this one sold straight away, all the best with your search, just remeber to give it a good test drive and make sure its going through the gears smoothly if its auto 👍
Nice to see the new upload ✌️✅
👍 will be coming thick and fast the uploads this week
@@carukchannel your inspiring me upload by upload to get back to what I loved doing from buying my first Cavalier 25 years ago 🤣🤣🤣🤣 The world is so different now but your vids prove there's still a market for the honest/sensible trader 👍
@@REVVINGRODNEY Thanks shredit, I wish I was still buying and selling cavaliers, we could change a clutch in one of them without removing the gearbox on some models, happy times
@@carukchannel From a Cavlier 1.6 L to an SRI then on to a few v6 Vectra SRIS's and then of course on to a few Calibras....... Great times
You are very brave buying sold as seen cars from an auction
As long as you don't go to heavy into bidding and over pay you normally give yourself a chance of getting out of something even if its a Lemmon, blowing a little bit on one is not the end of the world. Thanks for watching Kenny
@1:33 Behave yourself, battery. No, I am a naughty one. 😘
we did end up putting a battery on it to be fair. sold straight away mind 2800 so good result. thanks for watching red Phoenix
Thats a really good deal, these are around 6000eur here depending on what options it has
Wow, thanks for watching Bojan auto care and all the best for your business this year
The Peugeot 3ppp car what about checking the windscreen wipers
Another proper honest video, love the way you wedge everything thing in , collection, road test and expenses . Any chance of a final update on the end sale price and how long it took to sell just to round things off ?
Its a little difficult to get the sale side into content as the car could potentially take weeks or even a month or so to sell, so it would hold up lots of content. However I have thought about doing monthly round up / catch up videos going through what we have covered in the last month, whats sold, and where things are up to. Thanks for watching Roger 👍👍
Was your auction fee 189. AB. Cheers. Nice buy. Cheap enough. Timing belt cheap. All done. EGS automated manual kinda thing namesake from Citroen guessing
Yes fee was 189 on top of the 1050 hammer price
@@carukchannel my 1050 bca was 1276 all in. Much better yours fee !!! I got an 11 11 cx7 2.2d on 91k manual Pearl white. Diesels eh. Don’t like em. We buy what’s right money
I'd say this was a very calculated gamble
Cheers ed
Wish we had those cars in the us
You have some interesting cars in the US NEG just a shame the steering wheel is on the wrong side 🤣 Thanks for watching again
Just seams so cheap. I too bought a cheap diesel Saturday. Would have been 2500 12 months ago. Was 1050 against 1875 book. Autotrader give 3900. Similar price in and out ability.
I was surprised with this one to be fair because as of late I have been unable to buy a wheel at the auctions
Hi mate
Can you do proxy bid with Aston Barclay or is it live only
if you have an account you can do proxy bids
Great car that. I think that Peugeot 1.6 diesel is decent. Don't know how long they go on for? 250k would be decent. That gives it a lot more life and a very decent car for somebody
I have MOT'D inspected a view 1.,6 hdi engines with over 200k on so does give some benchmark as to where they can go with some tlc
These are great cars I bought one of these as a grandads taxi over a qashqai because it drove a lot better. Only problem I had at 20 thousand miles was the hand brake which chaffed against the chassis and is a common issue. Fixed by a ex Peugeot mechanic for £20 who stripped and fixed it rather than replacing it. I tried the automatic but found it very lethargic the 1.6tdi suited the manual better. Have had it 8 years and put 55 thousand miles on it. Now on 70 thousand total. My main complaint is poor ventilation in wet weather and the huge front screen in low sunlight, I fitted a black band across the top of the screen to help with that.
Hi martin, yes I would pick the 1.6tdci manual also, this auto drives fine but it does pin the power back which is very noticeable over the manual. Glad yours is giving good service and thanks for watching 👍👍
Not a bad motor. Once its sorted it will fly out the door.
Yes all being well, thanks for watching again cabottaxi
Hi mate, how does the gearbox in this compare to the EAT box in the newer models 2018 on? I've head the EAT in the new ones is actually really good in terms of performance and reliability.
The older boxes are not very smooth to be honest and I don't really see any benefit over a standard auto box and the reliability is a issue on the semi auto models fitted to this vehicle featured.
@@carukchannel Cheers, have you much experience with any of the newer autos from 2017 onwards? Good video btw, you've got a new sub!
@@stuontwo677 I have driven a few they seem alot smoother and change up is better. Cant really comment on the reliability as the just to new and we don't see them failing at this age unless there is something really amiss or design fault. Thanks for the sub and glad your enjoying the content Stuontwo 👍👍👍👍
The 1.6 hdi is a solid motor if maintenance is done on time good for 250k.?
agree seen a view with big miles come in for mot
Good buy I would say! Do you put warranties on the motors you sell? Not herd you mention it?
It depends on the price to what warranty we give, on something like this we would either a do a standard 90 day or offer a 6 month warranty from third party for a small fee, thanks for watching bud 👍👍
@@carukchannel Thanks for taking the time to reply! Yea makes sense I suppose they are covered for 6 months any way with the consumer rights act.
@@danielgreen4213 Yes you need to be careful in what your selling, the cra gives 6 months liability to a dealer but it does vary on the issue, if a customer is ringing up 5 months later complaining about the cigarette lighter not working we draw the line 😁
Do Peugeots sold in the UK have miles on the speedo/odometer or kilometres? (I am Australian and all ours have kilometers).
in Miles skippy
Was looking a these, but what put me off was the ridiculous storage compartment under the rear passenger seats, almost impossible for standard ISOFIX to work safely as it will have to rest on the lid, bit of an oversight from Peugeot - so buyers beware.
Hi Lee where is your garage based?
Based in Cheshire bud
Wish you can find me Honda CR-V
Great video, this will make a nice car for someone and would probably be good for another 50k, £2,500 would be a fair price and a decent profit for you 😊
Thanks David, yes circa 2.5k is fair I feel
Hello do you know a good auction for general public.Thank you
It would depend on where you live in the UK
@@carukchannel I live in Woking Surrey
You're not a fan of Rotella tyres, which budget tyres do you rate as best??
I am going to do a budget tyre video soon, but one of the best known budget tyre brands is Landsail Tyres colin, after that you would be looking at mid range brands such as Avon, firestone and Uniroyal to name some other decent value to performance brands
Must be the highest mileage car in the country with that gearbox.
Maybe 😁
6 or 7 out 10 times you end up with a lemon then the 3 times you make money you make up for what you lose.
I would say its more like 1 in 5 are bad and we would loose money on or just dispose, sometimes you can get a run of bad ones and it ruins your week, thanks for watching FHM
@@carukchannel Not if you buy from BCA😁
If you let that go for 2600 there is money in it for the next man.
Someone else will sit on that for 2995 and not even have to wash it!
Where about are you
Crewe 🤔
Decent little run around for someone wouldn't worry about that mileage in a desiel as long as maintenance kept up 👍
Yes should make a good car for someone, thanks for watching again
Injectors on my mums diesel 3008 went. And could afford to repair so had to sell it. Good car for long journeys around France.
