Is a used Peugeot 2008 a good car?

The Peugeot 2008 is a small SUV that was first released in 2013, but the second generation model came out in 2019. It is available with a range of petrol and diesel engines, but you won’t find many of the latter on the used market. The petrols are small but punchy enough for daily driving duties.

The 2008 is a stylish and practical car that is good to drive. It has a comfortable ride and good handling, and it’s also economical to run. It’s quite practical as well, with a good-sized boot.

Some downsides include the fact that the diesels can be quite noisy and rear seat space isn’t great.

Overall, the Peugeot 2008 is a good car, but it’s not without its flaws. If you are looking for a stylish and practical SUV that is good to drive, the 2008 is worth considering. However, if you need a lot of space for rear passengers, you may want to look elsewhere.

What to look for when buying a second hand Peugeot 2008

The Peugeot 2008 is a fairly reliable car, sitting bang in the middle of most of the reliability surveys it’s included in.

There aren’t any major recurring issues to watch out for, but a few of the more common problems relate to the engine and electrical systems. When test driving the car, listen out for any odd sounds from the engine, or any signs that the power is not as strong as it should be.

With electrical systems, go around the car and test everything is working as it should, and make sure there are no warning lights on the dashboard. 

In any case, you should make sure to complete the usual used car buying checks, which include looking over the bodywork and interior for any damage or signs of wear. You should pay particular attention to the alloy wheels and tyres as failures for these can be dangerous.
