The PEUGEOT 508 FASTBACK (2018-23) 5DR FASTBACK 1.2 PURETECH 130 GPF SS EU6 ACTIVE PREMIUM EAT AUTO8 is a stylish, five-door family car, combining the sleek look of a saloon with a practical hatchback-style rear opening. In the UK it sits in the mid-size class, offering an alternative to mainstream family hatchbacks and estates. Its 1.2-litre petrol engine and automatic gearbox suit commuting, longer journeys and everyday family duties, while the distinctive low roofline and polished cabin give it a more individual feel than a conventional hatchback. It is best for drivers wanting comfort, useful passenger space and smart styling, rather than an SUV’s raised seating or a small car’s easy parking. mycarcheck.com has recorded just two checks, covering one VIN, so its figures are a small snapshot: an average private-sale value of £14,700, 33,000 miles and two previous keepers. Against rivals, the 508 stands out for its striking design.
