The Peugeot 208 is a supermini infused with typically French style 
Unlike a lot of superminis, it's available with three or five doors There's also a choice of petrol or diesel engines, as well as the high-performance GTi Turbocharging means the 208's 1.2-litre petrol engines pack more of a punch than you might expect If you want the looks of the GTi without its higher running costs, you can choose the 208 GT Line The 208 is one of the better-looking superminis out there In non-GTi form, it's not quite as much fun as a Ford Fiesta, placing more of an emphasis on comfort Only the priciest engines are available with a six-speed gearbox, however: the rest make do with a five-speed The 208 is good to drive around town or on twisty country roads The most efficient diesel 208 can return more than 90mpg fuel economy Even the sporty GTi can exceed 50mg if driven gently The 208 faces a host of rivals, including more up-to-date contenders like the Nissan Micra and Citroen C3 Peugeot has recently launched online sales in the UK, giving buyers the opportunity to buy direct from the brand Peugeot's standing in our Driver Power customer satisfaction survey has improved in recent years Like many small cars, the 208 can be customised to a certain degree with exterior and interior add-ons
