Many thanks for your video. Very informative and interesting as im looking for exactly this type of car although im leaning toward the 107 or C1 . I only do about 3k a year Your videos are probably helping more than you may think
Small but perfectly formed. The styling of the Citroën C1 is more attractive and the fabric roof is very cool. Great engine and better clutch set up which was a weakness in the Peugeot 107. Very frugal.
Yes sir, the 107s had a very weak clutch in them, which fortunately is very easy and quick to change. The 108 has a much nicer one to use. These will be likely to remain as sensible secondhand cars for some time to come.
I was going to drive something else at Langley Prestige that day, but I ended up in this 108. Never mind, at least I got to try a manual one! Thank you again, sir.
great first car, and the previous 107, especially for women or smaller men. The vw up/skoda citigo, you'll get more room for driver/passenger and luggage but at their current prices, you might as well be looking at small hatchbacks at the same price point for improvements across the board.
The 1.0 engine in these cars is an extremely characterful and reliable unit. Having also driven an Up and a Citigo on the channel, they are a bit more refined, but these 108s (and its siblings) do have a charm all of their own. Thank you very much indeed for watching and commenting!
You are starting to worry me now with those Wet Belt Alerts that flash up. I have just bought a 2016 108 1.2 ltr with a timing belt so I assume that is what I have. It has done 50,000 miles. Am I safe for a while with this belt?
Yes, the residual values of these are holding up quite well, and they do have low running costs and a good reliability record. Not very luxurious, however.

Well, they are supposed to be useful, even if in the end they just end up being a bit rubbish...

We all love a wet belt timing alert.....
Great little comparison video to the the C1 you done recently Sir.
A excellent little review as always Sir.

I just wonder how long the joint collaboration of Peugeot, Citroen Toyota and Vauxhall/Opel can last in the present environment
Not sure, sir, but two of the vans they produce have versions with all five badges.
Toyota no longer collabs with PSA after they bought the entire ownership of the TPCA factory. As for the rest, PSA owns all of them
@@matejaem , they collaborate together on vans to this day, but no longer for passenger cars.
Good Afternoon Sir, Bank Holiday viewing in Germany. Excellent
Glad you are enjoying your holiday, sir!
It's not got cruise control , it's just a speed limiter. Great video, thanks.
That is correct, probably only available on the higher trims. Thank you very much indeed for watching and commenting.
@@lloydvehicleconsultingGot a higher trim. Still just the speed limiter.

We have a 108 and I think you'll find that the cruise control is actually just a settable speed limiter.
I am sure that you are correct, thank you!
Hello Sir, I prefer the look of the Peugeot over the other two . I would like to try one , it would be interesting to see how they go .
If you try one, sir, make sure that it's a manual one, that is all I can say... Thank you very much indeed for watching and commenting!

I think that it's approaching the time for the belt to be replaced, if it has not already been. Yes, it's a real thing on these engines.
@@lloydvehicleconsulting OK, thanks
Actually i prefer the Mk1 versions, ideal for local running about .
It's a much more refined car than before, I imagine like the previous version, it won't cost much to run.
Rather basic motoring Joseph but everyone has to start somewhere. Ideal for a new driver to gain experience and probably a low insurance group.
