2022 Peugeot 508 GT Wagon: owner review

Purchased this car from Tasmania as it was the colour and feature combination I was looking for and was the cheapest in the country.

I love the style of the whole car, it’s a turn around and look back kinda car. It’s not an SUV, but offers as much space for better value. Inside, it’s a standout in a different take on a car dashboard, which isn’t boring to look at and hasn’t just got an iPad stuck in the middle of the dash.

It’s difficult to find something I dislike about the car as I’ve been seduced by the whole car, but a couple of things are annoying, one being no sunglasses holder anywhere in the car, you end up putting them in the centre armrest box. Second, where should you put your phone, other than the wireless phone charger pad?

Having only had it for 4 weeks, it’s been as reliable as expected for a 22-month-old car with 6500km on the clock, but as I write this, it’s got 9500km. It’s been super practical with the seats down for the tip run. No complaints from rear passengers either.

This is a fantastic alternative to an expensive SUV (new price was $70k + and I paid $47k all in with ferry and vic stamp duty/ registration). The quality of materials, features, style of this European car are so much better than Korean, Chinese and some Japanese brands. I’m going have to ride the depreciation train with this car but long term I’m happy to ride that train.
