Car Deal of the Day: Peugeot 5008 is fashionable, French family SUV and only £234 a month
Bold styling
Lots of space
£234 a month
Peugeot went big on the latest 5008 - not just in terms of style (which it has in abundance), but gadgetry and size, too. This is the largest SUV the French firm makes.
Thankfully, what isn't big is the price. We found a deal from the AA on the Auto Express Find a Car service that'll get you a Peugeot 5008 for just £234 a month. That's typically the monthly price you'd pay for a supermini or base-level hatchback so for the roomy 5008 it certainly caught our eye.
This leasing deal is spread out over 24 months with a £3,079 initial deposit required. The maximum annual mileage limit is 5,000 miles, though for an extra £31 a month you can extend this to 10,000 miles. This deal is based on the Allure trim, though for an extra £27 a month, on a similar two-year lease from the AA, you can get the higher-spec GT instead. Advertisement - Article continues below
The 5008 in Allure trim is still very equipped, however. As standard you get a concept-car interior with a 21-inch widescreen display on the dash complete with integrated sat-nav. The system has Apple CarPlay and Android Auto wireless connectivity, voice recognition and the ability to connect two phones at once via Bluetooth. Peugeot's i-Cockpit layout also boasts configurable 'i-Toggles' in the dash to make frequently-used menus and functions that much easier to operate and a small steering wheel for a sportier driving position.

A seven-seater, the 5008 is an ideal car for large families because the middle-row seats are very spacious and the third-row can even accommodate adults thanks to the sliding functionality of the middle-row seats. There's also tri-zone climate control to keep every occupant comfortable. With the third-row seats in use there's still a decent amount of boot space (348 litres), though if you fold them down you'll find a whopping 916 litres back there.
The Allure trim also receives 19-inch alloy wheels, metallic paint and LED headlights (with Peugeot's distinctive 'Claw' signature) to go with the overall eye-catching design the new 5008 introduced just last year.
Despite being a big, family-oriented SUV, the 5008 is more economical than you might think. There's a 1.2-litre three-cylinder engine with mild-hybrid assistance that provides 136bhp to a six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and it returns on a combined cycle a very impressive 52.5mpg.

Bank of England is 'not sanguine' about inflation hump, Greene says
DUBROVNIK, Croatia, June 7 (Reuters) - The Bank of England still expects the ongoing rise in UK inflation to fade but is "not sanguine" about it after price growth proved more persistent than anticipated only a few years ago, BoE monetary policymaker Megan Greene said on Saturday. Britain suffered a bigger than expected inflation surge in April - even after taking out an error in the data - prompting investors to bet on the BoE slowing its already gradual pace of interest rate cuts. "Our view is that we can look through it, but of course there's a pretty big risk," Greene told a conference in Croatia. "The last time we had a lot of second round effects. We're hoping that we won't have second round effects this time around, but we're not sanguine about it." She argued the recent cost-of-living crisis, which saw inflation peak at 11.1% in 2022, might have made "people ... more sensitive to upticks in inflation and so that could feed through the wage-price behavior." Greene, an external member of the BoE's Monetary Policy Committee, voted last month with the majority for a quarter-point cut in rates to 4.25% and has said she was part of the group who might have voted to keep rates on hold if it hadn't been for U.S. tariffs. She reaffirmed on Saturday that private-sector pay growth was "way above what would be consistent with a 2% inflation target". "It's (going) in the right direction, it's just not going as quickly as I would like it to," she added.

John Lewis slashes perks for credit card holders
John Lewis is slashing perks for its credit card holders – meaning shoppers will need to spend more to reap their rewards. Points earned on purchases using the credit card convert into gift vouchers to spend in John Lewis and Waitrose. Each point equates to 1p, but from the beginning of August customers will only earn a point for every £10 they spend – instead of £4. The less generous perks will mean customers will need to spend more to receive their vouchers in the post. The rewards for spending in the group's own stores will remain unchanged at five points for every £4 spent. That means if you spend £100 in John Lewis or Waitrose you will get £1.25 in points. The company also announced that although there will be cuts to points collected elsewhere customers will get triple points in John Lewis department stores and online in August over the next three years. A John Lewis Money spokesperson said: 'Our rewards are being updated to help maintain our market-leading reward for spending at John Lewis and Waitrose, where customers earn 1.25 per cent back on every pound spent. "Spending on purchases made elsewhere will earn 0.1 per cent from 1st August. 'These changes enable us to invest in the rewards that are most valued by our customers - alongside a new bonus to help customers earn additional points throughout August.' The retailer said there were 'many other advantages' to its card and it was 'adding more for you all the time'. These included double-points promotions, competitions and special offers from its partners. The reduced point system for spending in other stores is in line with other popular cards offered by supermarkets such as Sainsbury's and Tesco. It's also not the first time John Lewis has cut reduced the offers on its cards. In 2020, the retailer halved the number of points shoppers could gain from elsewhere from one point per £2 spent to one every £4.

Ashley's Frasers explores bid for ailing Revolution Beauty
Mike Ashley, the high street billionaire, is exploring a cut-price takeover bid for struggling Revolution Beauty – a move that would stoke animosity between him and rival London-listed retailer Debenhams. Sky News has learnt that Frasers Group, which owns retailers ranging from House of Fraser to Evans Cycles, has approached Revolution Beauty about a potential offer for the company. Retail industry sources said this weekend that Frasers was considering whether to bid but was not certain to do so. Revolution Beauty, which sells branded cosmetics, put itself up for sale last month as it warned investors that it was evaluating options to establish "a more robust capital structure with additional capital to invest into the company". It said it had received a takeover approach from a third party - thought to be a reference to a bidder other than Frasers Group - and invited other suitors to contact its advisers at Panmure Liberum, the investment bank. To facilitate the sale process, Revolution Beauty has parachuted in Iain McDonald, an experienced City figure whose directorships include a seat on the board of Debenhams Group, as chairman. Debenhams holds a large minority stake in Revolution Beauty, while Frasers is a big shareholder in Debenhams and blocked the change of its legal name from Boohoo earlier this year by voting against the plan. Revolution Beauty has had a torrid run on the London stock market, and now has a market capitalisation of barely £20m. Its stock has collapsed by over 70% in the last 12 months alone. The company has at various points been embroiled in probes relating to its accounting and a multimillion pound settlement with its founder, Adam Minto. In January, it reached a settlement with Chrysalis Investments, its former shareholder, after it made a series of allegations against the company. Revolution, which positions itself as a mass market beauty range, is sold through thousands of outlets including Superdrug stores in the UK. It built a strong following among younger consumers by forging collaborations with media properties including the ITV dating show Love Island. Frasers' interest in acquiring Revolution Beauty would reflect its growing interest in expanding beyond pure retailing in recent years. Under chief executive Michael Murray, it has also built stakes in companies such as THG, the owner of beauty brands such as LookFantastic. Because the auction of Revolution Beauty is taking place through a formal sale process, the identity of prospective bidders does not have to be disclosed in the usual way. It was unclear on Saturday whether Frasers intends to make a statement confirming its interest to the London stock market next week. On Friday, shares in Frasers closed at 728.5p, giving it a market value of £3.3bn. Any offer for Revolution Beauty is thought to be unlikely to ascribe a significant premium to its current valuation.
