Peugeot 208 Style arrives – costs from £13,445

Peugeot 208 Style arrives It’s nearly two years since the new Peugeot 208 started arriving in the UK, and it’s a decent little car with plenty of options and a sensible price tag. But the newness of the 208 is starting to wear off a little, so Peugeot are aiming to put some pep in to sales and some footfall in to showrooms with a new special edition 208 – the Peugeot 208 Style.

Project Car Hell, Straight Eight, Two Doors Edition: '47 Buick or '53 Packard?
