Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Franchised
Did you buy this car new?
Yes
What price did you pay?
£20,000
When did you buy the car?
December 2015
Did you get a good deal and why?
I upgraded earlier than I anticipated within my PCP deal and Peugeot did me a good deal on the GTi Prestige.
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
I had a 208 Style 1.2VTi (64 Plate) and decided to go for an early upgrade. I rather liked the sportiness of the car and wanted a more powerful engine.
What was the dealer like?
The dealer were very good at keeping me in the loop. They suggested if I wanted an upgrade to go for the GT-Life however, I wanted to upgrade to the GTi Prestige model and they provided me with some quotes to take away. The dealer wasn't pushy at all; always making sure I was happy.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
It's practical, you can drive it slow comfortably, or drive it quick on motorway/dual carriageway with no worries at all. Really fun to drive in my opinion. Never need to worry about lack of power.
What's it like to park?
Easy. It's a fairly small/average sized car. It has rear sensors that beep and the touchscreen shows how close you are.

What's most practical about your car?

Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Panoramic Roof, with LEDs.
