Just in case you were worried that the Paris show was all about concepts, whether the bonkers fast (Lamborghini Sesto Elemento, Jaguar C-X75) or the merely bonkers, here are two boringly sensible cars, soon to be seen blocking an outside lane near you.
One's the Peugeot 508 (pictured below), the other the seventh-generation Passat (though it's really version 6.5). They are the same. They come in saloons and estates. Diesels and petrols. Gearshifts and paddleshifts. They have many airbags, and start-stop eco-systems and keyless entry and LED lights.
Both come fitted as standard with a regional business development manager on the driver's seat.

that peugeot really looks good.it's nice and simple with no fussy bits.the passat does look decent but all those straight lines and that massive slit for a grill just reminds me of those sleek phillips shavers.also,i don't like VW's new propensity for making far too fiddly looking headlamps.

The passat looks very cheap and I really do not like these boring straight lines but the Peugeot looks like it will be a serious car, an I absolutely love it that black color. Good job and I can see that Peugeot and Citroen are improving in desinging
