OVERVIEW
Updated for 2015 with a sharper snout and more standard equipment, Peugeot’s 508 range is, at first glance, reasonably competitive with other mid-sized European diesel sedans.
But behind that facelifted exterior and slightly revised interior lies an ageing car.
While the 308 range has moved on to a cutting-edge platform and smart new lines, the 508 has yet get the same treatment.
Instead, 2015 marks the current-gen 508's fifth year in the Australian market. Does it feel like it’s in its twilight years yet?
We borrowed the keys to a mid-grade Allure diesel sedan for a week-long loan to see if we could find any wrinkles and crow’s feet.
