Bought it 8 months ago and loved it. Despite some wind noises. Overall this car is just awesome.

We got the 2017 1.6hdi 120 CV Allure and the car has been absolutely brilliant so far...

I've had a 2015 model for 5 years now. Can't complain. Not a single fault so far. Comfortable and practical.

Mat providing the best car reviews on KZfaq!

I've just subscribed because I love your reviews Mat, you should be on Top Gear!

i love your test ! you are so much dynamic and charismatic, contrary to the most part of french reviewers x)

I have the same car and the same trim level and it's amazing. The only thing I would complain is that there isn't a chassis mount point under the car for a bike rack but it didn't matter for me

Any chance of a 7 series review, would you recommend the 730d Msport In Mineral white?

Really like the car, if my 308 is anything to go by superb quality and good to drive, also in the top 10 most reliable cars!! Practice review!

hello, could anyone let me know what shade of white is the brightest white? thanks

Raising the bar when it comes to online car reviews.......Amazing work.

Great car 🚗. Love the interior. Top of its class..

Deffo the best reviewer out there. Good work Mat.

This is an absolutely fantastic car. Not sure I agree with the appraisal of the handbrake, it looks awesome and is actually a very clever design.

Thinking of buying one but I keep reading that the handbrake is a bit weird to use. Can anyone clue me in why?

Another great review Mr. Watson not a French car fan but you made a good effort Mat.

It may have a weird looking handbrake lever, but it's still better than those awful electronic types!

Just driven one of these to Cornwall from London but the 3 cylinder engine has an unusual vibration that is felt through the wheel. After the journey I lost some feeling in my right hand.

Had my first driving lesson today in one of these and I’ve never been on the road before and it was rlly easy to drive

Matt, all modern pegeouts are supposed to be driven watching above the steering wheel. Some people may struggle if they like to sit higher with the steering wheel at its lowest. Ps this is a great youtube channel!

would love to see a renault capture review, just for comparison !!

4.000 revolutions per second? That's like 240.000 RPM! Cool!

I almost passed this review thinking it's 2008 model SUV, I was looking for the 2017 model, then I realized I was also looking for Peugeot 2008 but 2017 model and this was it.

Review Renault Captur 2017 please

Please please please normalize (or whatever the correct term is) the sound levels. The music at 5:40, for example, is deafening compared to the segments before and after. Otherwise, great job as usual, keep it up!

I have it and the car is brilliant, apart for some anoying issues which I think are common fot this class. And if anyone compares this car to a Vw Tiguan, they are missing the point as this car is a B segment crossover. :)

I took one for a test drive today. it's nicer than a 308 but it's just OK drive wise. Not having a central armrest is unacceptable when I also lean on it over long distances.(it's the simple things).

What was the outcome, Buy Shortlist?

Mat - I have always appreciated your reviews from your previous life and good to see the CarWow library increasing. Great work! Just ordered my second 2008 - going from 115hp Feline diesel to a 130hp GT petrol as tested. Got a great deal and my annual mileage has dropped significantly hence switch to petrol! Hope the torque curve of the petrol is fairly flat but you seemed to have a bit of fun driving with this engine. Cornering etc - cars with grip control come with all year mud and snow tyres so sports car road holding cannot be expected. Car choice is irrational but the car suits my needs - 5 doors, reasonable capacity for the tip, good looks in the right colour and low running costs. The handbrake is fine but agree with you about glove box however it looks as if the door bins are better than the original. You didn't mention the pathetic reversing light - most versions come with rear sensors but I hope the camera (not mentioned in your review) helps! Keep up the good work

...would you buy avoid it, consider it, shortlist it, or buy it?? ..

Between the Peugeot 1.2L 130 GT line and Citroen C3 aircross 1.2L 130, which one would you recommend? Thank you!

Just switched from a Hyundai Tucson 2.7 litre V6 to a 2019 2008 110HP with EAT6 transmission last week, I really love this car. Still have to get used to the seating position but otherwise it's a winner for me. Very comfortable and nimble.

When will you be test driving the new Peugeot Rifter.

Hi , loves your reviews. Can you help me please ? .. just choose one: Peugeot 2008 1.2 EAT6 or Vitara petrol 1.6 A/T , 100% city and highway just arround the city., never off road, never to travel far away. thaaaankss.

Filter is an excellent choice of music!

great video thanks

I bought 2008 1.6 BlueHDI 5 speed gear, and there is a strange sound coming from the gear when clutch is released and, when you press the clutch sound is no more, until you release the clutch again. In Peugeot are telling me that that's the sound from fifth speed synchron and that's ok by the definition of vehicle. Does anyone have the same problem, any thoughts?

good review, but prefering 308 or waiting for new 3008 is better option.

Are you planning on reviewing the 308?

good looking car

Do you auction your reveiwed cars?

Mazda 6 review please!

Matt is by far the best motoring journalist out there.

Can you open the window of the boot? Thanks

I have a 67 plate with the 110hp engine. It does 48 miles per gallon and never had to even change a light bulb after 67000 miles.

Great video! Mazda 6 Wagon and Subaru Levorg, please! :-)

I don't get the plastic interior thing, rented a polo on holiday , very thin plastics and drab interior. plus the fiesta is very plastic, think in its class this is the best interior

1:19 The camera man lol

iv borrow my friends car and can't take the hsndbrake off!!! Help

Hi, Mat, I was asking for your advice regarding my car and now I'm happy to tell that I followed your advice and I've just ordered the new Porsche 718 Cayman (although you said that ideally you'd get a used 991.1 instead, but a 911 just a bit too expensive to run) ! I can't wait for you to review the 718 to see what you think of it (although so far all reviews of the boxster were very similar, everyone is just complaining about the 4 cyl turbo)

what happened to the pov shots?

CX-5 review pls

My dad has the Peugeot 2008 2016 allure blue HDI

whyy it doesnt come with electric automatic brake and parking?? and is Android Auto available? please lemme know 😅

I'm getting one soon so excited!

Mat when are you going to test Alfa Romeo Giulia?

Mat! I've decided to stick with the XF in the end XD Sorry mate ~

the best car Peugeot made these last years is the 208 , it's good for tuning and pumping , if you are a good mechanic you can turn the 208 into a piece of art

44mpg from a tiny petrol engine? That's pretty impressive tbh.

At 2:30 I was wondering what that was supposed to mean until you said it was an Easter egg at the end.

Lobe the honest opinion ❤❤❤

mat this or Kia sportage?

That obummer news paper lol

Did Mat pick'd up the paper he thrown ?

WOW, the TOP version has 130 HP? In Brazil the TOP version has 179HP with THP technology. Really big difference, and its not even considered gtline version.

Do the Renault Talisman next

Nice vid

Great car

I used to have this car

This Mat guy is a right knob lol

mr watson you are the best👍👍👍👍👍👍

1:19 the guy holding the umbrella deserves a pay rise

An engine that spins to 4'000 revolutions per second? That would put an F1 engine to a shame ;) By the way, I thought that an "M" in "RPM" stands for "Minute" as... Revolutions Per Minute...

no central armrest?!.... Next!!!

Just got this as a rental. I hated it at the beginning...however it grows on you (now I can just about tolerate it). The driving position is too high to reach the gear stick (or the gear stick is too low), having the steering wheel covering the dashboard ain't great and that hand break is just weird (and quite an effort to use)

You are doing a good job :) It would be nice to see a review for the new 2020 peugeot 2008. This new one seems to be a whole new car, but it would be interesting to hear your opinion.

road to 100K :D

could a 17 year old drive ang get insured on theses?

We have 6 of these on fleet all 1.6d Allure models. They have been 100% reliable with a couple of them doing high mileage. Like all current Peugeots the screen takes a bit of getting used to and if you sit about an inch higher than usual the dials/steering wheel issue soon disappears. Without the sunroof you get LED strip lights through the roof. We refer to them as dogging lights as we can't find any other purpose for them. Customers do like the 2008 but the 500x is a better drive and is more popular.

im 6'4". will i fit in it?🤔

Nice review, the car looks great with some misses from Peugeot, as usual :)

superb car

Agreed about the interior, it is quite a nice place to be. But you mentioned the clutch, gears etc. I think you didn't emphasize enough just how bad they are in this car. I drove this for a couple of weeks on car hire a while back and the manual stick shift was horrible, the travel between gears was almost as long as my journey from one end of the country to the other. The clutch seemed to have been designed by Arnold Schwarzenegger (or at least my left calf looked like Arnie's leg after a couple hours driving it was so hard to depress. Lastly at motorway speeds this thing doesn't handle crosswinds very well. Overall for me it was exhausting to drive. On the plus side, the traction control (2wd) was better than some AWD cars I've driven. Seriously, I drove the 2008 last winter and couldn't believe I was driving a 2wd car. Not only in mushy leaves, mud etc. but driving up extremely steep inclines.

Review some old cars!Carwow retro!

peugeot just breaks down in South East Asia..like VW and all European car brands

4000 revs per minute Mat!!

4k rev/sec? Wow!

peugeots are always being futuristic. but the down side, not all people's favorite.

Renault Capture or Peugeot 2008?. Which is better.

What’s the point if it’s only 2 wheel drive! At least make AWD an option!

Those doors shut sound very flimsy n hollow...

4000 revs a second. Came on, Mat. Some Beaujolais is still left in your blood? :)

I recently picked up a 43k mike 63 plate in same colour as review, but mine is the top spec feline model with a nicer non black interior and panoramic roof etc and mine is the 1.6 Petrol, never drove one before not even the 208 as I came from a 1.4hdi 307 and because it’s a 16v engine engine is had the typical sluggish low down power of yiu try to push beyond normal driving, but once it’s on the move and you at 50mph and put your foot down it really pulls, great on motorways, certainly better than the 1.6 110hp Petrol in the 307 and 2002 Renault scenic, okay it’s range is 422 miles to a tank so a big difference to 700 miles in the 1.4hdi and about 70 miles out from the older scenic(missus has one) at full tank, but it’s so much better to drive it’s irrelevant plus that’s down to the design of the car as being suv like and a 107 I had prior only managed 425 to a tank, I have seen 37-42mpg on my runs, but I have a little bit of a heavy foot, but I certainly wouldn’t pass up the petrol just because a reviewer prefers a diesel car designed with much more torque for better pulling..... also she seemed to have forgotten one feature assuming it’s across all the range, mine has a dial near the gear stick that has a mud/snow/sand option as well as normal meaning it will adjust the grip to match for each scenario, not had to test it yet, but the brand new fwd Range Rover evogue doesn’t even have anything like that and that’s a 40k car purposed for these things.. certainly as practical as my 307 was which I needed, so this 2008 is a great car.

"4000 revolutions per second" - really - wouldn't that be a jet engine!

Aways Acurate Reviews: -straigt to the point👉NO B's!!

My brothers new car.

Why do cars these days do not come with a spare wheel? Seriously though, I think it's a huge problem not to have a spare wheel because who knows your tyre could burst anytime...

Anyone else here from the Christmas video?
