Peugeot 5008 best of both worlds or one to avoid?

[@rivervalegroup]

Would you consider a Peugeot 5008?

[@danield.8615]

After watching your review, testing the 5008 at our local Peugeot dealer - we bought one! It's an absolut briliant car for this size, uses the room a lot better than our Ford Mondeo (yes, even the 5008 is 24cm shorter) and it feels much more cosier in it.

[@richard8241]

While I appreciate you telling it will take 3.2m in length, load area, with the front passenger seat down. Is it some kind of "conspiracy" within the car industry not to give measurements out ? Just doing an internet search for a vehicle type - MPV -SUV - estate. Brings back nil when it comes to just giving load lengths with seats down.. I see it more often on foreign videos. And, even though I can't understand what is being said. I can catch the full measurements in centimeters.. Some EVEN use measuring tapes ! Amazing ! Why would I go and buy a vehicle such as this, or any other type. The purpose being to occasionally carry loads - LONG items.. Yet, even on motor manufacturing websites.. They talk in "liters" and "Volumes"... Fact is. Because we carry items which are no square blocks. That "information" is neither here non there.. I want to know how long and wide the back of a vehicle is in measurements, centimeters.. Or inches.. Your video was informative.. Most other's I just find someone rattling on about cup holder's... I see it so rarely i remember the best I've seen. Honest John does a video of the Ford Grand Tourneo Connect .. Where he get's a measuring tape out and shows the measurements - length and width of the back. I was over come with gratitude on seeing this and will forever be eternally grateful to that man.....

Just a quick note. I have the GT and fully loaded it. Yes, the adaptive cruise control will bring the car to a complete stop but after the car has stopped the cruise control goes into "Pause" and you have to accelerate using the pedal and the car DOES NOT get back up to speed automatically as you mention at 42:32. Apart from that this has got to be the best review I have seen for this car. I have owned my GT for a year now and I have come from Audi Q5, Q7 and Discovery 4 HSe's and I am over the moon with my 1st ever Pug and don't intend changing.

This was, without a doubt, the most thorough review. Essential and to the point from the first till the last minute. Well, our family will soon become a five-member, and its time to change my audi a4 avant (12’ model).I am between peugeot 5008 (1.6 petrol 180 hp or 2.0 diesel 180 hp gt line) and skoda kodiak (l&k version, 2.0 diesel 180 hp). I think peugeot is more stylish, maybe more practical (mainly due to the back row of the 3 separate seats), has o futuristic interior and exterior which i love. On the other hand skoda kodiaq seems more spacious (especially in headroom) has o 4x4 wheel and it is more an suv (old style of course) than an mpv...what is your opinion? Also what engine do you suggest for 5008 (2.0 diesel 180hp or 1.6 petrol 180 hp)?thank u in advance and many greeting from Greece

[@PaMos1806]

Spiros Kom Skoda Kodiaq, Seat Tarraco, VW Tiguan Allspace and most of the other SUV‘s, also the bigger and more expensive ones like Mercedes GLE, BMW X5, even Range Rovers, have only, how I call it, 2.5 seats in the 2nd row. If you need to have 3 places in the 2nd row in an SUV, this Peugeot is one of the few options.

Im looking to buy an 5008, but haven't decided which engine yet. I think i'll land on the 1.6 THP 165, with the GT Line package. You barely mention this engine, and say that "theres unlikely to see one of those". Why is that? My motivation for buying a petrol engine, is that it suits our needs better (mostly city driving), and i need it strong enough to drag a fairly heavy trailer from time to time, not to mention five people and a full boot on vacations. Also, Peugeot is replacing the 165 bhp engine with a 180 bhp THP engine, so the local dealer has provided me with a exceptionally good price on the mentioned 165.
