Description
Let me tell you about this Peugeot 3008. It’s like the sensible person who secretly has a wild side — nothing too showy, nothing to attract the maniacs, but still full of surprises.
This is the 1.2 PureTech Active, Euro 6 (so it squeaks just under many emissions restrictions), with start/stop (that little engine kill-switch you’ll love to hate). It’s the kind of car that doesn’t demand centre stage, yet quietly delivers.

Picture this: you’re tooling through London, smirking at ULEZ signs, while your 3008 breezes past with zero extra charge. Others are coughing up penalties; you’re sat there sipping your overpriced coffee, unbothered. This car is the masterclass in balancing the dull and the delightful.
Got children? Great. It’s roomy, polite, doesn’t shout for attention. Got no children? Even better. It’s subtle, it’s clever, it doesn’t catastrophically underwhelm you. The 1.2 PureTech engine is small but cultured — it doesn’t roar like a lion, but it certainly won’t embarrass you when you push it (within reason).
The service history is tidy, the wet belt was replaced at good intervals — you won’t be inheriting a disaster. We’ll give it a fresh service just before sale, so you take delivery with nothing lurking in the shadows.
Two keys means you’ve got a backup, in case you lose one in a pub or horse-trough. Insurance group ~16 is modest for a car of this size. Its fuel consumption ensures you won’t weep at petrol stations. And yes — it plays nice with ULEZ.
