Our Peugeot EV and classic BMW may be the perfect two-car garage

THE idea of the 'perfect two-car garage' often comes up in conversation in the Auto Express office. Some of my colleagues favour something big and practical alongside a small and sporty model, while others refuse to acknowledge that they'll ever spend time in traffic, or on bumpy roads, and clearly never visit the tip or a builders' merchant. It appears many are (theoretically) prepared to live with a pair of stripped-out race cars, day in, day out.
But if I had to choose two cars to live with from now until the end of time, I know exactly which way I'd point. It's a solution that's been drawn into sharper focus during my time with our Peugeot E-2008. It might not be perfect for long motorway slogs, but as something to jump in and out of Monday to Friday, commuting to the office or airport, it's ideal.
