Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 82 Active 5dr Petrol Hatchback

The Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 82 Active is a stylish and compact hatchback that offers a smooth drive, solid fuel efficiency, and a well-thought-out interior. Powered by a 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine delivering 82bhp, it isnt a performance car, but it feels responsive and capable for everyday city and motorway use. The 5-speed manual gearbox is light and easy to manage, adding to its appeal for new drivers or commuters. The Active trim level provides a good balance of equipment without overcomplicating things. It comes with air conditioning, a multifunction touchscreen, DAB radio, Bluetooth connectivity, and LED daytime running lights. The 15-inch alloy wheels and sleek lines give it a modern look, while inside, the cabin is refined for its class comfortable with a well-designed dashboard and decent materials. Safety is one of its strengths. It boasts a five-star Euro NCAP rating and includes features such as cruise control, stability control, and optional Active City Brake for low-speed emergency stops. Rear space is fine for two adults, and the 285-litre boot is practical for shopping or short trips, expanding to over 1,100 litres with the seats folded. One critical point to be aware of is the engines wet timing belt system. If not properly maintained with regular oil changes and timely belt replacements (usually around 100,000 km or every 6 years), it can lead to engine issues. Buyers should confirm the service history, especially timing belt and oil change records. In summary, the 208 PureTech 82 Active is a smart choice for budget-conscious drivers seeking comfort, style, and economy.
