    BMW's position is shocking

    Its not really for anyone that's owned one.
    The worst thing you can do is buy a new BMW model in its first year.
    My F10 had has a ****load of problems regarding seals, aircon, headlight modules, idrive unit etc. The engine itself is rock solid thank christ otherwise I'd crush the ****er.
    If I do ever buy a BMW again I'll make sure its always the LCI model as they're 3-4 years into the lifecycle of that car model.

    No car enthusiast is gonna take a 1.5 French diesel car seriously. Same issue with the RCZ, nice styling but crap engine choices.

    Wouldn’t be unique to PSA! How many VWs are the 1.6 vs the 2.0 l ?
    I’d want the 2.0 l if it were me but ma t motorists would be perfectly happy with the 1.5 if it performs reasonably

    I think they won't sell in huge numbers here and I just cannot see the high end variants selling well in this country because of the pricing. It would be very difficult to sink 50k+ of your own money into a new Peug irrespective of how good a car they are. If importing from the UK is still viable beyond Brexit then there certainly could be value in importing a 1 or 2 year old top GT or GT Line model. Their rarity here wouldn't be a bad thing though among the sea of the usual rep mobiles.

    The 5008 is selling well, no cheap used ones either

    50k new for the 2L however is steep

    German cars were always muck, change my mind :)
    New 508 looks like a great car.

    One things I've noticed with Toyotas is that their satnav/ICE units on European models are awful buggy messes, which may be impacting surveys like this. They don't even have CarPlay or Android Auto. They should just give up and stop trying to make their own.

    A few weeks now with my 508 GT 2lt diesel and I have to say I love it, a bit of a mid life crises but boy does it bring me back to the days of my 1.9 GTI and puts the same smile on my face :D

    I think you might need to make an appointment with Specsavers. Neither car look like each other.

    But the RCZ also came with a 266bhp 1.6 petrol. Surelybthe problem here is focusing on the diesel versions. There was also a 200bhp version of that engine.

    508 is a stunner in red, and GT line. And a 2.0 l to boot. How much was that car on the road?

    Could well be a Micra now you say it but you are right, its not a Starlet. Very similar rear light threw me
