This Peugeot 308 is a massive improvement on the previous generation 
It's now a credible rival for class leaders like the VW Golf and Ford Focus The 308 is fun to drive, but still a little less involving than a Focus or SEAT Leon Fuel economy is a Peugeot 308 strong suit – especially the diesel models The most frugal 308s can top 90mpg Body control is very good, despite the Peugeot 308 having soft enough suspension to soak up most bumps The rear lights have been redesigned for the facelift, with constant illumination for added safety Although not the last word in handling prowess, the 308 is very smooth and comfortable GT Line models are fitted with all-LED headlights for better visibility at night The GT-Line trim also gets a sporty body styling kit and larger alloy wheels The 308 features the distinctive small steering wheel seen on many modern Peugeots Choose a trim level with leather upholstery and the 308 has an upmarket feel Most versions of the 308 come fitted with a six-speed manual gearbox The dashboard is smooth and minimalist for the most part Rear legroom isn't class-leading, but should be perfectly adequate for most people The Peugeot has a large 470-litre boot, dwarfing the Volkswagen Golf and Ford Focus A panoramic sunroof is available to give the interior a light and airy feel Daniel Pullen 2012
