Peugeot 208 Hatchback (2012 - 2019) 1.4 VTi Allure 3d Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
Bought this car as a runabout or second car for when we are not transporting kids or objects,
Seemed like a great deal never been a fan of Peugeots to be honest, they always look the part but I'm all to aware of the reliability issues they face.
This particular model has all the bells and whistles touchscreen infotainment monitor cruise control sat nav Bluetooth streaming etc,
However the steering wheel position is flawed meaning you can't see the Speedo because the steering wheel only offered reach adjustment no rake adjustment.
This is a 1 owner full service history top spec example always maintained by main dealer however it has decided to spin it's big end bearings completely destroying the engine even with low mileage, of course Peugeot don't want anything to do with it at all and subsequently the car is now an expensive driveway ornament at best and at worst overpriced scrap.
I'd avoid these vti engines it is a Whitley concealed but known issue aswell as valve clearances.
I'd stick to Japanese brands again.
