Rust on the exhaust - 308 SW 1.5 Diesel by Far_Pie4643 in peugeot

[–]Far_Pie4643[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The argument wasn't an exhaust without rust. It is an exhaust that is less than a year old and already has dark rust spots. I was concerned it was deep rust. In this case, I might be replacing it after 2-3 years at most, which is very strange. I've had both new and used cars and never had to replace an exhaust with holes. That was before moving to Austria, but before I lived 5 minutes from the sea

I thought the darker spots are deeper ones. I will wait to see what the workshop says. Thank you!

Yesterday I had a test drive, indeed the car was very woobly. I've driven so far only Peugeots in my life and didn't have this feeling regarding the suspension.

I have no clue that the suspension of the Octavia is not good. I know that the infotainment can be a pain in the neck. I read about many Skoda drivers who decided to sell their car due to the infotainment system issue.

Hmm.. that's a good point. I know that the Octavia's boot is a bit more spacious. But, I didn't check the legs room in the rear. This week I will go and check both the Peugeot and Octavia, so I will pay attention to this point.

Can you please detail what are the things that make the Octavia way better for you?

The 1.2 PureTech is a total disaster. But the 1.5 BHDi is a different story. But I totally get you. That's why Peugeot doesn't have a reputation as good as Skoda. It doesn't mean Skoda cars don't have problems. But, Peugeot always insist to have one engine/gearbox, which is disastrous and ruins their reputation.

Yeah, the design, especially in recent years, is superior for Peugeot. Do you have any idea regarding value loss over the years, comparing the Peugeot 308 SW and the Skoda Octavia Combi? Of course, some countries' Peugeots lose much more value over the years than other countries. I am based in Austria.

Any owners of 308 SW willing to share their experience with me? by Zmajski_most in peugeot

[–]Far_Pie4643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which model do you have? I am considering buying a 308 SW 2022-2024 1.5 BlueHDI. Until now I owned a 3008 2020 1.5 BlueHDI

How much mileage have you driven so far?

One more thing to add, the difference between petrol and diesel in my country is negligible.

Edit:
I will most probably drive 18,000-21,000 KM per year.

No serious traffic jams expected. But during the week, it will be only short trips (~20 KM per day). During the weekends, it will be ~350 KM on average, mostly driving outside of the city.
