Great review! Just bought one in red.
Just the right balance of humour, facts and opinion. Earnt a sub from me 👍🏻
Thankyou for the comment really appreciated
Superb review player man ! The 308 is now a kind of underdog car but it deserves imho better as it has a lot of qualities.
Thanks very much for your kind comment and agree the car deserves more praise
A hire company assigned one these to me last year. Have driven usual suspects: Merc/Audi/BMW, but this car stood out in terms of simplicity and handling. Given family health issues, bought one so I can Zap off to West Country. Very chilled motor. The 1.5 oil burner has more beans than you’ll expect too :)
The parcel shelf is necessary, it stops parasites from seeing what you have in the boot, its simple and it works (It also makes the car quieter). My 308 Mk2 SW is brilliant.
This AJ is funny and a brilliant review .. I'm eagerly await the all New Peugeot 308 2021
Thanks for your great comment really appreciated
Cant wait to finally recieve the 308! 2 months delay because of the covid-19. Great video!
Thanks for the comment and hope you like the car
@Jerry Rawlings So far so good, love it! Got it since July 10th, 10300km, glad I chose the 308
Great review!
Thanks for the comment, appreciated
Good review..your good to listen to..
Many thanks for your kind comment
Currently have the 308...very comfortable smooth drive...now looking for another peugot . .just a shame they don't do hybrid non plug in
@Jerry Rawlings got mine from new last August ..alarm kept going off randomly..fast forward it was the ultra sonics which is such a shame as its such a comfortable car , holds road well etc..maybe mine was just a one off
Is the front screen actually heated like on a Ford or does it just ramp the fans up towards the windscreen?
The chrome trim is lovely....it comes out best against a darker body paint color
thank you .. I am going to buy it with your advices. hope I won't fail :D
You won’t regret buying any of the new Peugeot cars
@@AJThePlayerCZcamsChannel what about the security? the material of Peugeout 308 provides high security when it is turns out to the accidents?
So, the second generation 308 from 2014 has had a facelift? I didn’t know. I can’t tell. Good looking car though very classy looking
Was you driving the 1.2 gt line
The screen is absolutely fine thou, I don't even have mine of full brightness and it's fine on a sunny summer day - I don't have panoramic roof thou.
Is it comfortable for taller drivers? I'm 6'4"
My 2015 Allure has a 12v adaptor in the boot, it's up by the headrest. Shame the GT Line doesn't now have one.
@Jerry Rawlings I bought it at 3 years old, 18k miles. No issues exceptsomething to do with cyclinder 3 failed. (115bho Hdi) .I have an extended warranty so it was sorted under that. Car is a 15 plate, only done 18k when I had it, failed at 3.5yrs old, c.21k miles.. Other than that, perfect.
@Jerry Rawlings AA guy said " always cylinder 3, same engine as the Mini diesel".....was quite a major failure. £1200 repair.
What’s wrong with a parcel shelf!?
Honestly such a sexy car
Am looking to get rid of my 208 for this 1.2 308 gt line. Just hope my insurance won’t be high on it.
The cruise control is made to be used without looking at it.
So that you don't take your eyes of the road
35mpg. My gti gets near that. But it’s manual. But I agree it’s a fantastic car.
I did think the back seats had a usb and 12 volt socket which I learnt. I did think it had nothing.
Anyway good review
👍
I drive 110km/h 3.6L 1.6engine diesel ⛽
I swear you are VB ED'S LONG LOST BROTHER!!!!!
Great
Thanks for the comment
I just got rid of my puretech. The 1.2 has known issues with disintegrating cam belts as they run in the engine oil.
Why did you get it in the first place, everybody should know by now that if you get PSA car you get HDi.
@@petarmaksimovic4048 Why HDI?
@@jerryrawlings8885 Because PSA modern petrol engines are very problematic, mostly problems surrounding timing chains premature sudden fails and taking lots of expensive major components with them in the process. Sometimes to an extend of a complete engine write-off since they are alluminium block and difficult to rebuild. Since PSA stopped supplying their cars with trusty old naturally aspirated 1.6 and 2.0 pre THP engines (which were developed in cooperation with BMW and puretech is based on) the only trusty option now is to go with HDi engines which are more than 20 years around and have proven themselves as one of the best common rail diesel engines around that can last forever with proper servicing.
@@petarmaksimovic4048 Ok thanks I was considering buying a 1.2 petrol but does the diesel not suffer the timing chain problem?
@@jerryrawlings8885 If you are buying new and planning to own it only as long as the warranty runs I'd say you shouldn't worry about it much, but if you are planning on owning it long term then HDI is better option. HDI doesn't have a chain, it has a regular timing belt that almost never fails under normal usage and it's first service interval is at 170000km and is cheap and easy to service. 1.6 120 BlueHDI is a good proven one on a cheaper side. 1.5 130 BlueHDI is a rather new block, thou probably derived from the former, but I don't know anything about it because it's so new.
I just bought a 2020 208 a week ago and I can tell you they still need to improve on similar things to this car. They’re really bad with the glove box when switching it from right to left it’s tiny! The touch display screen is also shocking when the sun is on it you can’t see anything. On the other hand also love the new steering wheel and the brand new cockpit features. Definitely a step up from the previous 208
How is the maintenance cost for u so far with the 2020 208?
Is it a reliable car?
its better not having keyless anyway makes it that bit more secure keyless cars are so easy to nick
Fyi sport mode cannot make suspension firmer.
Lol I actually like parcel
Shelves
Did you catch it on the trip? 35 MPG. Thats what you get in the real world.
And its a proper torque converter auto box, not a stupid automated manual.
Do you know how reliable the 1.2 puretech is?
Haven’t done a long term test but signs are good the car will be reliable as very good build quality
early models, pre-facelift if you will, have some serious timing belt issues that may happen around 60000 km and kill the engine.
@@marcinsobczak2485 right so definitely somthing to look out for then would you say the 1.6 hdi is a better engine
@@ellissamsontech Diesels only have typical diesels problems. If you do a lot of city driving, Diesel Particulate Filter is something that WILL be problematic. In high mileage cars also flywheel and injectors should double checked.
@@marcinsobczak2485 Alright. I did hear about DPF. is it true that booting the car hard every now and again keeps the system well?
In countries like the U.S., Australia or Canada these would not be classed as a "family" car. More a car for singles or couples or as a second car.
It's unbeatable. Period .
It's been out since 2014 so it's far beyond 2 years into its cycle. The rear LED lights aren't new either. I have them on my older model. There is also a 12v adapter in the boot. It's high up between C pillar and rear seat.. This was a mere facelift. Sorry, but this review is waffle.
Audio is going up and down.....
How strange haven’t had any reports of poor audio on this video? Thanks for the comment
The revs aren’t going backwards because it’s a French car, Peugeot have designed the speedo and revs to contra-rotate. They turn toward each other. And it looks cool as tits. This guys a muppet
I do not know if it is a good car or not.
But the exterior design it's just Boring.
Good inside but why the f... they chooce not to have rear heating controls ? It's awful.
Αlso no controls for the clima etc? OMG ! It's so bad to have all the controls in the central console while driving.
The central console forces the driver to set up before going. Many people fiddle with their console or phones while driving and peugots solution is a step forward
