If PureTech engine range, perceptually will have better assurance.

But as long as EP6 series, need to be have mental preparation. The driver will need to have a better understanding on how the engine works to understand problems. If coming from no fuss cars and straight transition to peugeot/citroen without arming with fundamental knowledge, it will be a rude shock when hit with problems.

If really lucky, not much problem, good for the owner

The 3008 doesn't come with the new puretech engine range. But there were revisions done on the EP6 series engine as the years go by. Technically it would fare better than previous generations.

Just spare a little more money in pumping RON97 petrol, and idle the engine about half a minute before shutting the engine off (especially after a long/fast drive).
