Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Very direct and balanced with a lots of grunt! A big change from my previous Peugeot 205Gti. - I am now just over 50 years old and I need a more grown up gti & 208 Gti really hits the bulls eye. The car has the everyday usability and refinement yet a lots of fun to drive.
What's it like to park?
Parking sensors are great.
