New Peugeot 3008 or used Focus?
I'm changing my '06 Ford Focus Ghia and now trying to decide between a new Peugeot 1.6 diesel 2008 and a two year old UK import Ford Focus Zetec 120 bhp with 35,000 miles which is €3,000 less than Peugeot
Our answer:
Hi Mary,
Two totally different cars there so it will depend on what you want. The 2008 is probably the most practical small crossover so if you're looking for a 4x4-shaped car with sharp styling and pleasant driving manners, then it's a good choice. The Focus will be more refined and more sophisticated to drive though.
