Peugeot 308 GT unveiled

Peugeot will unveil two new 308 models at this year’s Geneva Motor Show, the innovative and practical 308 SW and the dynamic 308 GT THP 175. This new top of the range petrol model will be powered by the 1.6 litre turbo-charged THP 175 bhp petrol engine, previously found in the 207 GTi THP 175. It is also fitted with a new 6-speed manual gearbox.

To match the dynamic nature of the engine, the exterior of the vehicle benefits from a number of cosmetic changes. The lower front bumper panel has a unique appearance which is combined with a rear spoiler and a reduced overall ride height. Inside, the interior gains an aluminium gear knob and foot pedals and a new steering wheel design.

I'll second that Lavic, French cars in general have always had nice comfy living-room type seats.

Hate Peugeot steering - so light and lifeless!

They're for French people - hence good storage (for wine), comfy ride (so the cheese doesn't fall off the shelf), light steering and controls (so they can be done with one hand whilst the other holds a cigarette) and diesel engines (for even lazier driving).

This thing will kill all those puny little cars like the Volvo C30, Audi A1 and overpriced BMW 1 series.
