Car or Spaceship? Peugeot 5008 Review. 

IS this car is reliable,like Toyota 4runner?

Nope, you'll also get the 1.2 with 3 cylinders, 130HP and 8-speed automatic (PureTech 130 Stop&Start EAT8).

No Dom, it's not. Certainly not for new cars. On a personal loan you will pay interest, and on a car that costs in excess of £26k like this 5008, that's going to be a hefty monthly payment of between £500-700 a month for at least five years. You could lease it for half the price. You will not own it, but that's not the point of leasing. It's more affordable usership v more expensive ownership. The choice is yours.

@@leasingdotcom no leasing is not interesting in the long run. Unless you want to change car every 3 years... And even then leasing would be around 300€ a month, but that's permanently... And in the end you do not own the car. So it's interesting only if you change car every 2 3 years but it still is a waste of money because in the end you own nothing.

@@hivee3044 You will own a depreciating asset that you will have spent more on than its worth at the end. If you look at the leasing costs, you are basically paying the amount it depreciates each year so if you add the two options together, your thought that it is better to own actually doesn't necessarily come true (I have owned all my life but if it drops £5000 a year in value and you pay £500/m for the privilege, leasing for say £400/m is actually not as silly as it sounds).

@@jak493 expect a car lifespan is easily in the 20 years... By paying 400e a month you cover the cost of a car in between 5 to 10 years with leasing.. And in the end you still don't own it. Ofc, there are other advantages as you don't usually keep the same car forever in leasing since there is no point and get a new one every one or two year which is the only valid argument in favour of leasing. But yeah mathematically speaking leasing cost much more than buying the car, like I said unless you want a luxury car but for a Peugeot 5008 the leasing would be more expensive after 10 years when the car will easily last 20... So imagine if you own it through leasing for 20 years you would have paid the car twice its price (although, like I said leasing isn't exactly about buying a car) so, in that regard it's more expensive for people like me who prefer to own the car because I do not drive much and can easily keep and maintain the car in a good state over its whole lifespan. Now if you're an heavy driver, it might just be better to lease of course just like mostdelivery companies do nowadays

Alexandre Veillet. Hello the thing is nobody keeps a car for 10+years. If someone swaps their car every 2 or 3 years, the depreciation on ownership is more than the lease payments. The longer you keep a car, the less it makes sense to lease which is why the payments go down the longer the lease term. Buy a car for £30,000, sell it for £20,000 3 years later (if you are lucky!) so if your payments are around £275 a month then you aren’t any worse off. That’s my argument anyway🙂

God forbid they improve and get recognition. Blasphemy...
