Late last year I looked at buying a 2008 (to replace my 2012 308 HDi (2.0L diesel). The problem for me was the choice of engine. I had the 2.0L diesel in my 308 and it is the best engine in the current Peugeot range - nothing comes close. I like the 2008 & 208 (208 is a bit low for my aging body). They are both nice cars and ride & handle quite well. The problem for me was the engine. I don't like the 1.2 Puretech engine - lacks a bit of "get up and go" especially in Australia where I live. I ended up with a 2022 3008GT HDi (2.0L diesel) simply because it got me the engine I wanted (they are discontinued after 2022) Love both the 208 & 2008 as cars - However in Australia they need the 1.6 or 2.0L engines for our conditions.

Great video.
Why diesel is discontinued from 208?
Diesel 208s are unavailable in the UK for unknown reasons.
@@MoAV15 Not only in UK.
@@asthalis Where else are the diesels unavailable?

I'm afraid nowhere anymore since phase 2
I'd say a petrol hybrid gets the same fuel usage as a non hybrid diesel
