Peugeot 5008 P87
The second-generation Peugeot 5008 (P87) is a five-door, seven-seat SUV built from 2017 on an extended-wheelbase version of the EMP2 platform shared with the 3008 — essentially a seven-seat version of that crossover. It shares much of its engine range with the 3008 P84 documented elsewhere in this contour: the turbocharged 1.2 PureTech (EB2DTS), the 1.6 THP (EP6FDT), the 1.5 BlueHDi diesel (DV5RC) and the 2.0 BlueHDi diesel (DW10FC).
Because this generation shares its engines with the 3008 and other generations documented elsewhere in this contour, the same inspection routes apply directly — wet-belt checks for the PureTech petrol engines and EGR/turbo checks for the diesels. What is genuinely specific to this bodyshell is its seven-seat, extended-wheelbase layout.
To judge a specific 5008, confirm the third-row seats are present, fold correctly, and that the seatbelts and ISOFIX points for all seven positions are undamaged — a practical check specific to this bodyshell. Get a full fault-code read across all control units and keep the printout.

Pre-purchase checklist
- ☐This engine family (DV5RC, 1.5 BlueHDi) was the subject of an official Stellantis recall (campaign MXL for Peugeot, NY5 for Citroen/DS) covering vehicles built 2017-early 2023, for a 7mm camshaft timing chain that can weaken or fail; check by VIN whether campaign MXL/NY5 applies to this specific car and ask for documented proof the recall work (reinforced 8mm chain, fitted on new production from February 2023) has been completed rather than relying on the absence of a warning light
