Yes, the back seats got even better, it got more variable, it now gets five stars in Euro NCAP and the the new BMW-PSA turbo engines are just great torquey little pieces of fun. If one wants an economical diesel, it might be cheaper to do the same that I recently did: Buy a six to nine month old 307SW that was used in PSAs own fleet.

I'm not sure I'd want to haul myself and 6 passengers in the 308SW, though. In Europe, people must be A LOT slimmer/smaller that the average American.]]>Mar 4th 2008 10:39AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-peugeot-308sw-says-big-and-funky-in-french/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-peugeot-308sw-says-big-and-funky-in-french/
However, there are many Europeans travelling with six or seven peaople and a large box on the roof ("Schwiegermuttersarg" -- coffin for the mother in law). I would not do that since it eats the fuel economy advantage compared with small vans like the C4 Grand Picasso.

If you often travel with seven full sized Europeans you should opt for a C4 Picasso, a Peugeot 807, or even things like a Fiat Scudo or Renault Trafic.]]>Mar 4th 2008 10:50AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-peugeot-308sw-says-big-and-funky-in-french/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-peugeot-308sw-says-big-and-funky-in-french/Mar 4th 2008 2:51PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-peugeot-308sw-says-big-and-funky-in-french/http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/04/geneva-2008-peugeot-308sw-says-big-and-funky-in-french/Mar 4th 2008 3:31PM
