The PEUGEOT 208 (2015-19) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 BLUEHDI DPFR SS 75 EU6 ACTIVE is a small, three-door diesel hatchback in the supermini class. Its compact size suits town streets and parking, while the 208’s styling gives it more personality than a runabout. The three-door body looks neat, though rear-seat access is less convenient than in a five-door rival. With its efficient 1.6-litre BlueHDi engine and modest power, it is best suited to commuting, errands and economical longer journeys rather than acceleration. It can appeal to first-time buyers, solo drivers or couples wanting an easy-to-place car. Against Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa and Renault Clio rivals, the 208 stands out for French design and diesel frugality, while buyers should weigh diesel suitability against their driving pattern. Mycarcheck’s three look-ups across two VINs show averages of £5,800, 65,000 recorded miles, 2,000 miles annually and 1.7 previous keepers; this small sample is indicative only.
