    Today I take out the 2023 Peugeot 208 GT. The build quality on this little french hot hatch puts most german manufacturers to shame.

    I got this as my first car a few weeks ago, and I love it! Really all you need! When I’ll get older and more experienced probably I would look towards something else, but as a 22 yr old with his first car, it will be all I need for quite some time!

      Glad you agree! Most first time drivers now lease a car rather than buy one for sun £2k! Hope you enjoy! It’s a fantastic car in my opinion

    Best First car? It's not a smart car or twingo you know, and the price is around £20k!! It's a grown up sophisticated super mini or segmant B medium sized car.🎉

      Your forgetting that 90% of cars on the road are now leased or financed, so it’s very affordable

    I rented one of these in Bulgaria last year. First time driving a Peugeot and I was blown away by how good it was. Wish they were available in the US.

    i wont lie. my test is not too far away and for a first car there is no way im paying that amount of money. it might be the best but a cheap run around in case you knock it or kerb it going through the countryside is all you need. id like to see your take on sub £3000 cars for new drivers
    as i feel like thats a more realistic budget!!

    • @TomShorrock
      @TomShorrock  Год назад +1

      Hi Brad, totally understand where your coming from, my first car was around £4K however the majority of people finance cars these days so you could pick one of these up for around £200 per month with for the quality of the car is a bargain compared to what’s on the market

      @francisco.segura 11 месяцев назад

      May depend on the market. In some countries I believe it comes standard in the GT Line, maybe also in whatever the AT middle version is. Where I live I don't think it comes standard with the base model.

    I'm 32 with well-paid job and can't afford one of these, not even close. Leasing is the only option, but that'd take half of my monthly salary for 4-6 years and I have to pay bills, to eat and date my girlfriend. Would be lovely to be born somewhere in Western Europe.

      At the time of this video they were £199 per month, now they are rather expensive. Remember shop the deal rather than the type of car 💪🏻

    100hp? Do they offer a model with more than this? On Us highways, this wouldn't survive with such low horsepower. I had an old Honda Civic hybrid with a few more than this, and it was always dangerous getting off four lane freeways, merging, or passing. Even with the tiny weight of the car. I would be scared on the highway with such little power. I now have 170hp with a small Volvo V50 and even that sometimes barely gets me through difficult merges on major freeways. 220 would be my ideal for total peace of mind. My next car will probably be the same small Volvo with a turbo.

      Are you serious? You can downshift blipping the throttle and just engage for more response without losing speed, never had a problem in the highway.

    Every first car gets either wrote off through a hedge, or into the back of another car, £3,000 is as said more realistic, Peugeots last decent car was the 306 hdi

      Hi Harvey! I agree to a certain extent, my first car east around £4K but nowadays these youngster end up leasing from the off because they want to “maintain image” so this car is fantastic for that

      @AndyRoo312 11 месяцев назад +2

      'Every first car'? Some do (as do some 2nd, 3rd, 4th cars) but many don't and are either resold, part-exchanged or returned at the end of lease - a few even stay with their owners for decades.
