  • Hi, guys! Welcome to our fourth upload on the channel.
    Today, we are doing a quick review on the 2023 Peugeot 208 GT, looking at some of its features and comparing it to its key rivals. Is this supermini worth the R459k purchase price?! Let’s find out in this video!
    Also, a special shout-out to Harry from the Westvaal group for organising this vehicle - I really appreciate it!

    One advantage this 208 has over the Polo is that you don't have to worry about being hijacked or your lights,bumpers, etc, getting stolen in SA.

      It is not getting attention because of the ridiculous price tag on such a small car. I will buy a low mileage golf, which is more practical over this any day.

      Hi, Julius! Interesting viewpoint - what is it that stands out for you on the Golf that the Peugeot lacks?

    • @juliuskona3299
      @juliuskona3299 Год назад

      @Driven Automotive Consulting I'm pretty sure on my first comment, I mentioned practicality (if you had read the comment to understand than to reply). The rear seat space will make it more comfortable to fit people over long distance. This makes golf a reasonable car to buy for me.

    Honestly they should price it a bit lower in SA but I guess it's due to the fact that it's outselling the Polo in Europe, SA has an unhealthy obsession with Polos.

    • @drivenautozar

      Hi, Junior! One thing to remember is that the Peugeot 208 GT basically doesn’t have an options list. Everything comes standard except for the glass roof. Not to mention that it outperforms basically everything in this segment.
      I believe the Peugeot appropriately priced. Take one for a drive, and you will be blown away!

      I also have a soft spot for French cars because we had a 207 at home. Stylish, punchy and super light on weight. There's a lot to love about them, and I'm glad to hear the same from somebody who has a more in-depth experience of these vehicles.
      Thank you so much, Robert!

    et de plus plus quand il est indiqué qu'il y a l'aide graphique et sonore arrière et Avant en sachant qu'il qu'il y a la caméra de recule .
    Est ce que la caméra en avant lorsque l'on fait un créneau ????
    c'est la nouvelle 208 GT qui a l'option Visio pack 1.
    enfin quelle est la différence entre la GT et GT Line car on parle toujours de la GT Line Jamais de la GT
