Trying to avoid the politics for the moment (probably won't last!), our Motability Car is due to be replaced (over a year late thanks to The pandemic).

Our first choice went out of the window because the advance payment on our first choice the Volkswagen Touran went up by over £2,500!


I finally bit the bullet and decided on the Peugeot 5008 with a 1.2 Turbo PureTech engine. It is only 1199cc but produces about as much BHP and Torque as the 2 litre Saab I owned 15 years ago and is actually more powerful ( on paper) than the 2.8 Granada I had back in the 80's!

Car hasn't been built yet (sometime in July probably, and it's blue of course!!).I have heard good things about the engine but I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with it.

Should have asked before I ordered it but better late than never!!
