Peugeot 108 Active - pictures

<p class="p1">The 108 is the Peugeot version of the Joint PSA-Toyota city car project which also spawned the Citroen C1 and the Toyota Aygo.</p>

<p class="p1">Cabin build quality and design is a big step up from the 107 - <span class="s1">the switchgear feels robust and the dashboard is easy to use.&nbsp;</span></p>

<p class="p1">Peugeot has managed to give the 108 a unique look,&nbsp;with claw-print lights at the back mimicing the claws of the&nbsp;<span class="s1">Peugeot</span>&nbsp;lion badge.</p>

<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The 108 comes with </span>USB connectivity, DAB radio and a Mirror Link function for use with Android mobile devices as standard.</p>

<p class="p1">The 108 comes with two petrol engines: a 1.0-litre 68bhp unit which returns 74.3mpg, and a 1.2-litre 82bhp motor that gets 65.7mpg.</p>

<p class="p1"><span class="s1">T</span>he 108 has improved a lot over the 107 in terms of safety, scoring four out of five stars in the Euro NCAP crash tests.</p>

<p class="p1">Many of the 107’s components are carried over so the most of the parts are robust, reliable and well proven.</p>

<p class="p1">Around town the 108’s tight turning circle, compact dimensions and light controls make driving a breeze, but it lacks the sparkle to make it fun to drive.</p>

<p class="p1">The range consists of five trim levels: Access, Active, Allure, Feline and the '<span class="s1">TOP! Roland Garros'</span>&nbsp;model – this also gets some tennis-inspired interior trim.</p>

<p class="p1">If you want to add a bit of individuality and character to your 108, the French firm offers two-tone paint schemes and a host of funky sticker packs.</p>

<p class="p1">The 108 will carry four adults at a pinch, but it could do with more rear legroom and you get a 196-litre boot - nowhere near the best in class.</p>
