Hello everyone

My husband is considering buying this car for me.

http://www.charleshurstgroup.co.uk/used-cars/10938/peugeot-308

What do you think of it, does it seem good value for money? He has seen it says it is a lovely car and he thinks its worth the money...


Many thanks :A

    He's buying you a Peugeot?

    I assume he doesn't love you...

    Hi Harvey lol. I had a Peugeot before and loved it until I wrapped it round a lamp post!

    Best thing to do is go on to Autotrader and do a search and see what prices they are being sold for elsewhere.

    I think prices in Northern Ireland can be a bit different to the prices on the mainland.
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    It seems a pretty reasonable price.

    I did a national search and the cheapest nationally is around £7500, so not worthwhile.

    Push for a discount though!
