My new wheels on flower delivery yesterday.

And no Dave, sad to say my wallet is in intensive care.

Peugeot 3008 Paul.

Took delivery last Monday and I am still trying to work out what everything does. I can say that it is a very comfortable quiet drive.

Yes I believe Peugeots have a reputation for a comfortable ride. Well done, very nice indeed. :thumbsup:

One of my last UK cars was a J reg 405 diesel estate. Sounded like a bag of bolts, overtaking was fun on the A406, when it could be bothered, was like James Bond's DB5 with the smoke screen pumping out the back. Apart from that embarassment, I once pulled up in traffic o/s a night club in Gants Hill, two girls tried to get in, they thought I was a mini cab. Soon after traded it for a Rover (the one that was really a Honda).
I do not blv I have ever seen a Peugeot in Canada, nor have I seen Renault although I did once see an old Citroen Maserati. I wonder if French cars sell in Quebec? Fiat seems to have taken off around here so maybe it is something they should look into.
I'm rambling............... :rofl:

:-O :-O :-O Crikey, Alex. I'd have kept it and driven it around every Friday and Saturday night!

Graham, I hope you enjoy your new ride. Drive safely mate!

Thats a Peugeot? I was not aware they still made cars that actually were able to move themselves on the road! Looks like a mini SUV, is it the same size as a RAV4?
