Peugeot 308 SW New Car Review 13 Sep 2016

The Peugeot 308 SW - and its massive boot!

Last week, as I was driving the Peugeot 308 SW, I was pondering about the important things in life. For instance, why isn't Ireland more into estate cars? Personally, I'm mad about them. I love their practicality. I think their boots are brilliant – it’s the extra height…

New Peugeot 2008 Review 15 Jul 2016

Peugeot has unleashed their new 2008 to the Irish market. Will it continue to surprise?

It's been a few years since I last drove a Peugeot 2008. It was the pre-facelift model, and at the time I remember being impressed. This car has some very stiff competition from the likes of the Nissan Juke and the Renault Captur. However, Peugeot has just released a facelifted new…

Peugeot 308 GTI Review 13 Jul 2016

Is the new Peugeot 308 GTI the King of Hot Hatches?

For a very long time there has been a battle between Volkswagen fans and Peugeot fans regarding who has the better GTI. Both offer enjoyable GTI ranges, but right now Peugeot might have a nose in front with their new 308 GTI 270. Remember though, this is all cyclical – it’ll…

Peugeot RCZ R 24 Dec 2014

All I could manage was a little smirk - and a massive blush

I was driving down George's Street in Dublin 2 a few weeks ago and I stopped at the lights on the junction of Dame Street. All was as usual except that I couldn't fit the empty baby seat in the back seating area - the rear was just too small. So, I was in the driver’s seat…

Peugeot 308 2.0L Automatic 23 Dec 2014

Probably my favourite test drive of 2014.

This is the third time this year that I've test driven the Peugeot 308 and each time I've been impressed by what this lion has to offer. The last time I drove one I was impressed, but after getting my hands on the automatic I can now confirm that it's probably been my favourite test…

Peugeot 308 27 Jun 2014

We've driven this before at launch drive - now it's time for the extended drive

I have to hand it to Peugeot. I was looking at a 308 recently enough from 2009 and I thought wow, it still looks good. I often say that although change is good, sometimes changing something too often just doesn't wash. For example, one of my favourite cars from 2013 is the Mazda3.…

Peugeot 2008 17 Feb 2014

This week we looked at the 2008 from Peugeot

I’ve been test-driving cars on and off now for about eight years and I’ve gone through a lot of them. It’s not that often that I pick up a car and find that the public is drawn to it. I’ve driven some very flash vehicles over the years but I’ve noted…

Peugeot 308 23 Jan 2014

Launch Drive of the New Peugeot 308

Today, 23 January 2014, I am at the Irish launch of the new Peugeot 308. Colin Sheridan, Sales Manager of Peugeot Ireland, tells us that the new 308 is “new in every sense except the name.” Pretty much everything about this car is different from its predecessor, from…
