The PEUGEOT 508 (2011-15) 5DR SPORTSWAGON 1.6 THP 156 EU5 ACTIVE 6SPD is a mid-size estate, often called the 508 SW, rather than a hatchback or SUV. It combines understated French styling with a roomy cabin and useful load space, placing it among family-focused alternatives to the Ford Mondeo, Volkswagen Passat and Vauxhall Insignia estates. Its 1.6-litre turbo petrol engine and six-speed manual suit drivers wanting brisk, relaxed everyday travel, while the estate body makes it practical for family holidays, commuting and carrying bulky shopping. Active trim offers a straightforward, comfortable approach; buyers prioritising a large boot and more distinctive styling may find it appealing, though it is bigger than a typical city car. mycarcheck.com has recorded just three look-ups across two VINs, so figures are indicative only: average mileage is 49,000, annual use 3,000 miles and private-sale value £4,400. The sample averages 0.7 previous keepers in this small dataset.
