Peugeot 308 vs 308 SW: same sharp styling and crisp, comfy drive, but the SW stretches its legs with estate-car practicality—think a boot well over 600 liters versus the hatch’s ~400. If you love the look and a nimble feel, go hatch; if school runs, flat-packs, and weekend escapes beckon, the SW is …

150,000 km in 2 years — SW BlueHDi 1.5L 30cv. Comfortable, excellent gearbox. Maybe a bit noisy on the motorway, with air noise around the front doors. A slightly punchier engine would be welcome. The entire timing system was replaced under warranty at 110,000 km.

Dacia Bigster

The Dacia Bigster is a straightforward, value-driven SUV that emphasizes space, practicality and low running costs rather than flashy tech. It’s a sensible choice for buyers who want a roomy, well-built family car with rugged styling and easy-to-use features at an affordable price.

I've had a Dacia Bigster Journey 155 Full Hybrid for half a year. I had high expectations of this car beforehand and even those have all been exceeded. Truly a wonderful car.

Sensible and practical car. Drives okay. Low fuel consumption in summer. Good interior and cargo space. Interior feels cheap. Noisy in some situations. Sufficient ground clearance even for poor roads.

If the Bigster comes as a Hybrid 4x4 G150 automatic, it’s an interesting car. I’m currently leasing a Sandero Stepway running on LPG and will return it in November. Unfortunately that engine option isn’t offered in the Jogger, which makes the Bigster appealing to me. We’re fans of LPG — and now even with an automatic.
