Peugeot 3008 SUV review - better than the Seat Ateca? | What Car?

[@thormaster06]

Interior is what attracted me to this car and why I choose it over Kadjar, Tucson and Qashqai. To me all three interiors looked dated compared to 3008. My is GT line in Ultimate red and after almost 2 years it's still quite a head turner. P.S.: Glove box on left hand traffic 3008 is much larger because there's no fuse box.

[@mikewayne7069]

it's a beauty.... inside and out, no comparision to the VW 's Audi' s etc

[@Chris-ln6so]

Mike Wayne The Audi is a premium product. This car stands above all its actual comparables in the VW group.

[@papsavvas]

@thormaster06 hello, did you have any big problems since you bought your Gt Line? Im thinking of buying a GT Line too. Cant find an other one so great as the GT Line. The new Citroen C5 Aircross came out but doent feel like a car you can trust, although shares many things of 3008. Peugeot 3008 came out on 2017 and still beats other simillar SUV's.

[@CM-xd7pn]

Hey repair costs are cheaper than vws?

[@paolocoletti3424]

@121bham Agreed its cheaper than getting the Gt an adding some of those options :-) What would have been very nice tho was adaptive cruise control as standard on the Premium but that is an extra.

[@tessa7582]

Peugeot did a great job with this car aesthetically which is as much As i know about cars.

At last, after 2 years of ownership I've found out what those pointy bits in the boot are for so thanks. I have been amazed by the 1200 engine without the slightest problem it has taken me a car load of family and bikes on top all over England and northern Scotland. A joy!

[@klackon1]

I've had my Allure 1.2 auto for nearly two years and I hadn't noticed the pointy bits. No complaints about my 3008, I think it's a brilliant bit of kit. The voice activation for the satnav works really well and the safety features are spot on. What I really do like is the fact that I have a full size spare wheel.

[@thormaster06]

When I came to pick up my car salesman showed me what those pointy bits are for but I never used it! 😂 🤣 😂 🤣

@@klackon1 really contemplating on buying one of these.they look great.I have a mondeo 2l tdci atm so this would be very different.Do you think 1.2l engine is pretty powerful? it seams to have great reviews.I always think of a little fiesta or something when you hear 1.2l .I must remember engine designs have come a long way in recent years.

[@2956derbyful]

​@@ruralrob228 I've had my 1.2 GT Line Premium for a month now. I was hesitant at first, considering my previous cars were all 1.8 or 2 litre petrol, but I can honestly say this car can shift.

[@pauldarby8398]

Just got my 8 speed auto 1.6, and I'm very pleased with it, I chose the Allure model as I think it offers the best value for money. The build quality seems very solid, my only negative things I've found is too many settings rely on going through the touchscreen and there is no button to turn off the auto stop function that has to be done on the touchscreen each time you drive the suv.

[@cytrynowy_melon6604]

With 1.6 HDi or 1.6 Petrol? With petrol engine it is really important to check oil level and timing belts. if you don't do it, this engine is a ticking bomb.

[@henners88]

I currently have a 2018 Honda CRV EX auto and have had my head turned by one if these. The tech on this car is about 10 years ahead of Honda and the poor connectivity and poor mobile integration I am finding with my CRV has me looking for a new SUV with Apple CarPlay. My only concern is the slight drop in performance as on paper the CRV seems better and is a fairly quick car. I think I need to test drive a 3008 and see what I think, as it’s a great looking car. Nice review, the best one I have seen yet :)

[@r.andreii.730]

Not 2019....this is "the car of the year 2016" released more in 2017 ..I own one .If you buy one from this year production you will get the new 8 speed gear ,much more refined and very good consumption,mine is 130hp diesel .

[@g00dfeeling]

3008 still rules the segment.

[@billywatt1402]

In the top 10 NI car registrations for July 2019, Nissan Qashqai was 1st with 160 and Peugeot 3008 was 9th with 68. I'm not just biased because I have a Qashqai for just over 2. 5 years with no problems and I would not have anything else, but the above registration numbers speak for itself.

[@billywatt1402]

Interesting because the NI July registration numbers

[@billywatt1402]

Apologies. To continue with my reply. The NI top 10 registration figures for July show the Qashqai topped the numbers with 160 while the Peugeot 3008 was 9th with 68. I think these numbers will encourage me to go for another Qashqai.

[@praeliora]

I have the 2016 model, not the best looking car, but I have had absolutely no problems with it, when I trade in, I will definitely go with the 3008 again..however, I will really, really miss the drop down tailgate and split level boot. Such a shame Peugeot didn't keep these unique features.

[@Bunce1949]

Excellent review, however don't forget some of us tow caravans, so the diesel 180 bhp is a must for its power and torque. Most reviewers assume that fuel consumption is the priority, but not always, as some of us have other priorities.

[@TheLRider]

I've been running one of these for six months, 3 cyl,1200 cc petrol turbo with 8 speed auto. I thought that it was brilliant which is why I bought one, and then waaaw I discovered he most important button on the car. The Sports Button and it becomes a stunning car; suspension stiffens, improved/weightier feel from steering, engine rev ranges and change-up points go up about a 1,000 revs. It comes alive and absolutely flies and that's from 1200 cc petrol engine. I loved everything about it before, it's so comfortable especially on long journeys, and it looks beautiful and you get all the toys. VW looks just fin boring and probably more expensive and for what? It is up there with the best imo. And btw in sports mode it sounds like a feckin Stratos honest. How could it get any better. It handles superbly if you're not a feckin idiot. and even then I think youd have to push it really hard.
