2023 Peugeot 5008 review - 7-seat SUV perfection?

I've been desperate to try a Peugeot 5008 for a while now because with three ISOFIX points in the middle row and three individually sliding/reclining seats back there, it sounds like family car heaven. But is it actually any good? Join me for a full walkaround review, a look at the boot space and infotainment as well as a driving review. It's great fun and I definitely didn't edit that screenshot of Center Parcs' prices.

Great idea of yours to review the front info and navigation etc from the back seat, much easier to gauge layout this way, great stuff !

[@albertlira7443]

Trois sièges individuels i think would be correct. It's a left field family car choice certainly. The styling is getting better with age also. Great job man

[@johnhaynes9910]

The brightest thing about this episode Tim is your jacket :)

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

Haha thanks. You can get some bright colours on the 3008, but not the big one...

[@Chris_Rugby]

Tim you make this car look small lol, just how tall are you?

[@sivabalan23]

Hi , does the engine come timing belt or chain?

[@markscars1069]

My sister has just bought one, specifically because it was relatively cheaper as you say for a seven seater. But the only person who sits in the third row is her eight year old…

[@Don_Puparo]

just like any other 7 seater suv

[@oliverlondon5246]

You really love that jacket 😂

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

It's not going anywhere. It has a radioactive half-life

Next generation with hybrid and full electric variants next year!

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

Yup, based on the new 3008 that I just did a walkaround of

@@TimRodieDrivesStuff ah great! Hopefully we’ll see that soon! 👍

[@TheJaynie76]

Great review, thanks. You say your head is near the roof, how tall are you?

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

6’3”

[@TheJaynie76]

@@TimRodieDrivesStuff Thanks. I don´t think my kids will ever be that tall 🙂

[@germie7666]

Thanks Tim. Alternatively, what about a mazda CX8 ( DIESEL) OR CX9 (PETROL), both of which are cheaper and bigger and offer 4WD.

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

I'd love to let you know but Mazda won't lend me cars to test 😅

[@RoscoeColtrane]

Je préfère la Kia EV9

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

Je suis driving that next week. Je can't wait.@@RoscoeColtrane

[@germie7666]

Thanks

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

Thank you very much!

[@tonyny708]

Can you put a child booster seat in the third row?

[@lonelyakaza6273]

Mine using gasoline 1.6 L turbo but with only 6 speed auto. Should be much better than this 1.2 L version

[@allaboutpyro2549]

Is this car cozy to sleep in?

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

I didn't try - sorry! Do you mean in the back with a mattress? Or sitting in the driver's seat?

[@DontPanicDear]

trois pièces jointes individuelles pour enfants très coûteuses.

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

C'est bon, c'est bon

[@mickey4611]

what about th 7 seater Touran, can easily sit 7 passengers

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

This is absolutely dreadful of me… but I completely forgot they're still making it! I know a few people who own one and they love it. I'll see if I can get a go in one.

[@mickey4611]

@@TimRodieDrivesStuff I look forward to seeing the review if it does happen. I sold my 2022 Touran R line a few months ago to be replaced by another 2019 Touran imported from Hong Kong which I have owned from new and with a very high spec . Pan sunroof, keyless, auto tailgate, rev camera , heated seats, xenon headlights and full leather interior.

[@willsmyth639]

So save £20,000 and buy a Dacia jogger you mean

[@TimRodieDrivesStuff]

Haha, maybe. Depends if you like a posher interior or not...

[@jfair4172]

Depends if you want a 1 star safety rating or not.

[@willsmyth639]

@@jfair4172 basically the car is the same as the others it just doesn’t have the compulsory safety tech

[@alpine1609]

Hybrid under powered shit, bought this and used it as a car of this kind is meant to be used, family away for weekends away, luggage, dreadful drive, struggled pulling our small caravan, got rid of it, replaced it with a 508sw 2lt diesel gt line, cracking car, great on fuel, pulls like a train, this electric hybrid shit show will end up falling flat on its face, it's already started

[@RoscoeColtrane]

Je n'aime pas cette voiture. C'est tres ennuyeux et petite.
