Peugeot 5008

The Peugeot 5008 blends Peugeot's sharp design with the space and versatility families actually need, wrapping clever packaging and a premium-feeling cabin in a crisp, SUV-like silhouette. It drives with more poise than you'd expect from a people carrier, serves up practical touches and flexible seating for everyday chaos, and still looks good when parked outside the school gates.

The family car par excellence: a big boot, three equal and adjustable seats in the second row, two extra easily accessible seats, an engine that’s more than adequate... everything is excellent except for the slightly high price.
