PROS
Comprehensively equipped, 5-star NCAP safety rating, multiple USB and charging points, premium car feel, fuel efficient, Peugeot Grip Control system (switchable traction control system for off-road driving conditions)
CONS
Very few on the road which might not be favourable at trade-in time, space-saving spare tyre cavity is too small for full-sized normal tyre, no automatic option available.
VERDICT
Then there is the Peugeot 2008, the art-house French film and the unknown label Merlot, which rightly deserves to be experienced. Give it a try, it might surprise you; I was honestly delighted by it.
