About the Peugeot 508 Mk1
The first-generation Peugeot 508 was launched in 2010 as a replacement for both the 407 and the larger 607, aiming to move the brand upmarket. The 2.0 HDi Allure trim was a popular choice for fleet buyers and families, offering a balance of efficiency and high equipment levels. It features a conservative but elegant design and a cabin noted for its high-quality materials and soft-touch plastics. On the road, it prioritises comfort and refinement over sporty handling, making it an excellent motorway cruiser.
