An ideal farm car – and not just a farmer’s car
The new Peugeot 408 is not quite an SUV but its spaciousness combined with quality and style will surely make it another big hit in rural Ireland

For many decades Peugeot has been a firm favourite among the farming community. The 405 was introduced in the 1980s and quickly became many farm families’ main transport, while 205 and 305 vans were all the rage too.
In both cases the superb build quality and the plucky diesel engines made them perfect for the farming family and rural motoring.
