    They truly nailed that interior. The 3008 is a 6+ year old model now, and it still looks fresh and cool.
    Look at Peugeot's current line-up of models, and compare it to 10 years ago. Crazy how far they've come.

      Even the 1st gen 3008 had a cool interior, with that wrap around cockpit and some great features (including, as Matt said a few times, that split folding tailgate!), even if the exterior styling missed the mark and dated quickly. I had one as a rental for a week and loved it, even though it had the horrible EGC "auto" (but really an electronically controlled manual) gearbox. I got used to that 'box after a day or two, but it would have put me off buying one. So glad they dropped that EGC for the EAT6 and then the EAT8 (both made by Aisin, both very good).
      I very nearly bought a 2nd gen 3008 last year and I doubt I'd have regretted it if I had - they're just very good cars overall and they have the kind of interior and exterior styling that is, in my opinion, pretty much unmatched in this price bracket.

    The first Peugeot that I ever drove was back in the sixties, a 204 with a column gear change. This was far superior to the similar gear change offered in various Austin/Morris cars and vans. The strangest gear shift was in the NSU RO80, a pressure sensitive micro switch in the gear knob disconnected the drive to let you change gear, but that rotary engine was so unbelievably smooth.

    The Grip Control is an optional extra, had it on my first 3008 (the first one out of my local dealers show room), a 150 manual GT Line 2ltr HDI, and it is really good, you need the right tyres on there, so replacing the ones on there with summer tyres really would be shooting yourself in the foot.
    Sold that 3008 for a GT 180 HDI 3008, lovely car, fully loaded and saved quite a lot from the dealer on it 😊
    No grip control on this one but it had pretty much everything else, including the auto box.
    Sold that and ended up with a hybrid4, lovely car, only had it 10 months, small fuel tank didn't help with the odd long run and the battery range wasn't great in real world driving, it didn't suit my driving but would be great for someone doing more town or shorter distance motorway driving.

    A quick tip; avoid the 1.2 puretech at all costs. The timing belt runs through oil which accelerates wear. This can clog the oil filter and leave you stranded, also possibly with no brakes if you're unlucky. This can happen on cars with as low as 20k miles.

    • @khalidacosta7133
      @khalidacosta7133 Před rokem +14

      Issue was largely fixed and there are a lot of engines that use wet belts now, I wouldn't hesitate buying one now, a bit more involving to replace than a traditional dry belt but nowhere near as bad as an Ford ecoboost.. The one you need to really avoid is the VAG 2.0 TDi, some of those have a rubber oil pump belt, no service intervals, at some point it will either break or clog up the oil filter, you can't check it, it doesn't get replaced and if you wanted to do it, be prepared for a very large bill as it's a nightmare to do.

    I am a huge fan of you, but always had to keep a bit quiet as I drive a 2020 5008, having had a Grand Picasso before, so was nervous watching this given your past opinions on French cars ... The interior is stunning, especially at night. I agree about the tailgate being not as good - you can also get rid of the rev counter by changing the mode of the display, you even get a Saab-style night mode (I used to have a 9-3). You do get used to the steering wheel. The seats took 20000 miles to give!!! The 5008 GT line gets the pan roof... I agree about the touchscreen, you have to time it when driving to use this safely. The auto gearbox is superb. The drive is really easy, and actually much more fun than a Skoda equivalent which has less fun steering, I had a Kodiaq on holiday recently. Great balanced review, you are beginning to see what French cars are about, it really has been the best family car for us, and looks so cool, we get lots of compliments, which we would not have got getting a Skoda or Seat..

    Just a heads up; you can actualy control a lot of the apps via the 'speech' button on the small steering wheel, as well as the right roll pad once in an app. Very similar interior & controls to my own '20 208. If that steering wheel was large you'd not be able to see the dials, hence why it's that odd shape & size. Yet another great road test though. About the high Peugeot clutch on manuals, my old '62 308 had one of those, hence why I opted for the EAT8 (silly name) auto too. lol. But it's silky smooth imho.

    Another great and honest review Matt.
    I had a 2017, GT Line with pano roof in Sunset Cooper…or Brown (according to Revenue). The small steering wheel was so easy to get used to, and I would frequently change the iCockpit display, just for variety.
    It was the diesel, BlueHDi version. No DPF to clog, but it was important to add AdBlue whenever it sought it. The reversing camera was glitchy initially, but that was sorted by a softwear update. Was actually a very reliable car. It replaced a MINI Countryman (last in a line of MINIs). It was a shock how I didn’t need to spend multiples of the base price to get a well equipped car!!!

    From about 2014 on Peugeot have really come good after a lean period of about 14yrs. I have a 2017 308 GT Line SW and it's been totally reliable, comfortable and good build quality, certainly better than the last BMW 3 series I owned. I think the diesel's are still a good buy 2nd hand and Peugeot have for along time built the best diesel engines. Mine's got the 150bhp diesel and the torque for overtaking is brilliant. I like the little steering wheel but the instruments took a bit of getting used too but after 2yrs driving anything else it driving a HGV!!!

      The lean period finished well before 2014. Late 90's to early 2000's was when quality control was not brilliant.

    I have had my 1.2 petrol now for 4 years. Car has been faultless apart from a worn seat bolster that was changed FOC despite the car being out of warranty. As for the 130bhp engine. This is the same output as a 2 litre car I once owned

    Great review. Seriously looking at getting one, current finance plan finishes on my Qashqai next month. Enjoyed time with that and again a lot of car for not mad price so the one thing I want from the 3008 is the panoramic sun roof and heated seats, which the Qashqai has and I don't want to be without now. what spec do I need to ensure I get those. Lots of reviews/versions and I can't quite grasp which version(s) I need to be looking at. Thanks.

    You're wrong pal as They started doing Mk2 3008 in 2017 when it becomes European car of the year 2017. I had 3008 on my holiday for 3 weeks and it was such a nice drive! 2l HDI GT model I had. Really nice car

    Fun fact 1.6 puretech engine is used in some BMW's in markets like Turkey India Africa... like the 320I we get the 320 with a 1.6 Peugeot engine and 1.6 puretech is a great engine just with a stage 1 tune in a 508 or a 320i you can get 250 HP or even more

      @keremefeozcoban2740 Před rokem +2

      ​​​​​@@Insetta stock 320i is 170 HP And for the Peugeot 508 180 for base spec cars and 225 for GT line 1.6 engine in the 320 already has a great setup in it like the cooling system so even with a stage 1 it will have 250 HP the engine code is "N13B16" for the F30 but in the G20-G30 they use the "B48B16'' N13B16 is the PSA engine aka 1.6 Puretech you guys get the B48B20 and N20B20 in the 320i (just found this in Google you guys did get the N13B16 in the 316i we did get that engine too with 116 HP same as yours but ours came with the turbo in the 320 so 316i can have 250 HP too)

    Hi Matt. That stitching really reminds me of the Toyota Rav4 interior. Talking of the Rav4. It's interesting how you have never reviewed one. They are incredibly popular both in the USA and here in Israel. Honestly, you see loads on the road. I don't suppose they are that popular in the UK.

      Here in the UK I have a 2013 Rav4 icon Auto, and i love it, there are plenty of them on the roads, but as with most Toyotas here they are seen as a boring, and uninteresting car, I have driven used Toyota cars for many years, and I have never had a mechanical problem with any of them, just an occasional new battery, and in a couple of them new brake pads and discs, and some tires, other than that, nothing. Love them to bits.

      @@daneelolivaw602 I live in Israel but have been renting out a Rav4 Hybrid in the UK every year since 2018, to travel from London and drive around Scotland visiting whisky distilleries in the winter weather. For the price, it's the only car I trust to get me up and down those steep icy roads to and from remote distilleries and eats up the miles on the A74(M), M6 / A1(M) to and from London. The huge boot space is perfect for week long trips. I loved the car so much that I bought one here in Israel last year.

    You're not wrong about biting point of the clutch Matt. My Dad has a 15 plate & my knee is nearly hitting the roof before she catches. Also the wheel is ridiculously small, and I detest the binnacle above the wheel. Just fecking weird! Apart from that it's grand & my Dad lo es it!!

    You hit the nail on the head. I’m not interested in how a car feels when it’s been thrashed round the Nurburgring. That’s why I like your reviews. I’m interested in how a car drives for everyday use and that’s exactly what you do and it’s impartial. Keep it up
