    Africans love old Pugs. Near indestructible.

    Don't know about new ones, though. The 5008 diesel is closely related to the Focus diesel (since Ford bought the 2.0 from PSA), so at least the engine itself will be reliable (don't know about the transmission.)

    My friend's Peugeot 206 tranny (automatic) also gave up pre-maturely. Is AT Peugeot's achilles heels? My friend is based in Australia.

    Very hard to say. Not knowing the particulars and how the car was driven.

    Hi Richardson, just wondering if you pushed through in getting the 5008? I am also seriously considering getting one, wanted to get some feedback in case you pushed through with it. Thanks.

    Nope. My mom changed her mind. She's eyeing a pickup now.
