Peugeot 508 (2011 - 2018)
Active 2.0 HDi 140 4dr Saloon
Spacious, lovely engine but with reservations
Lovely engine and comfortable too. but
How does the settings to all the sat nav day date change overnight?
Why doesn't my mobile, or indeed anyone else's link to the hands free ? The blue tooth conked out and can't be fixed.
The no post code facility is amazingly woeful. various roads don't exist especially in London it's truly incredible you need to buy a Garmin/ Tom Ton for every journey to be on the safe side. I repeat just how can a sat nav not recognise street locations n London which have been there since the Romans?
Open the boot to put groceries or shopping in and watch it get soaked after the slightest damp spell, in heavy rain it's a disaster and your wife will be seething.
The sun visors are way to close, so if you forget to replace them on parking they'll give you a nice cuff across the forehead on entering if your 6' tall or more.
No back seat arm rest as you'd expect with cars of similar spec, OK you might realise this when buying but it's still a shortfall against similar grade cars
Just how the sat nav voice can revert either to a whisper or boom out so loud you wouldn't believe I'm sure the Peugoet electronics wizards will tell you it's impossible to happen, trust me it does.
On the upside over 50k miles it's never missed a beat and after 200 miles you can hop out with no back ache, fresh as a daisy
Would I buy another or if given this one by my company would I keep it?
Nope.
