Description
There?s something irresistibly chic about the Peugeot 208, and in GT Premium trim with the punchy 1.2 PureTech 130 engine and EAT8 automatic transmission, this little hatchback doesn?t just strut ? it sprints. This is Peugeot at its most design-savvy: all creases, claws, and charisma. From its LED fang daytime running lights to the dramatic rear light bar and diamond-cut alloy wheels, the 208 GT Premium looks like a concept car that somehow slipped past the motor show barriers and made it onto British roads. But it?s more than just a pretty face. The 1.2-litre PureTech petrol engine, turbocharged and delivering 130bhp, is a peach. Paired with the smooth-shifting 8-speed automatic, it makes light work of urban traffic and cruises with confidence on the open road. Official figures promise frugality (up to 52mpg WLTP), but the real-world joy is in how lively and responsive this little lion feels. Peugeot?s signature i-Cockpit cabin architecture is alive and well here: a compact steering wheel, raised digital driver display, and a slick 10-inch central touchscreen give the interior a tech-forward feel. The GT Premium badge brings heated seats, full LED lighting, navigation, cruise control, rear camera, and a suite of active safety systems that make this supermini smarter than many larger cars. It?s small on the outside, but cleverly laid out within ? perfect for town-based drivers who like their motoring served with a side of sophistication. In a sea of humdrum hatchbacks, the Peugeot 208 GT Premium is a breath of fresh, continental air. Stylish, spirited, and superbly specced, it?s the sort of car that makes even the dullest commute feel a touch more glamorous. Call us today to arrange a test drive.
