This is my 3rd Peugeot car. This time I bought a diesel 308. Fantastic fuel for long distance although I usually use it around town. Still good and you can put it on the eco use so the engine stops at the lights. I only need to service the car once a year which is why I love Peugeot and solid European car cheaper the others.

I have the 1.2T. It could be a great car, but mine suffers badly from Low Speed Pre Ignition (LSPI). On a good day it means you get a shudder through the car when accelerating back up to speed from low revs particularly under load (i.e. up hills), on a bad day, it means destruction of the spark plugs and/or engine, and a tow. Could be great. But isn't. Peugeot can't, or won't, fix it under warranty by the way. I would unfortunately avoid this car until they sort out their LSPI issues.

This is a fabulous car to drive. In manual format it is punchy and smooth. Very economical. Once you have mastered the GPS, it is easy to use and quite clever. Ride and handling are excellent. Good A/C and ventilation. The diesel engine is very responsive and yet quite economical. Actually this was a rental car we used in Ireland a couple of months ago. The car had 60,000 km on it.
