When Peugeot decided that the popular small family car the 307 had come to the end of its natural lifespan you can imagine that someone high up in the company basically said "same again boys" or words to that effect, as the result, the Peugeot 308, looks and feels very much like its predecessor and more like a mid-life revision than an entirely new model. The Peugeot 308 is in one of the toughest automotive segments out there, a real battle ground where sales volumes are high and customer choice is equally as high – all major car makers have at least one model battling for sales here. How does the Peugeot 308 compare to the other heavyweights in the segment?

Weighing in at £16,495 the Peugeot 308 HDi 90 is slightly cheaper than the Ford Focus Studio 1.6 TDCi, and slightly more than the Volkswagen Golf 1.6 TDI which means the Peugeot has been priced in the upper echelons of the small family sized segment. The Peugeot 308 is a popular fleet choice with large volumes sold to businesses, and the French carmaker is well geared in offering competitive servicing levels and parts – so expect the car not to be overly draining on the pocket. Servicing interval is 12000 miles which is pretty much segment standard, and thanks to the frugal diesel engine the car will literally carry on driving effortlessly for much farther than you would think. Perhaps the cars strongest selling point is the ease in which it can (leisurely) clock through the miles with the fuel gauge not moving. Expect residuals to be pretty weak on the car, high volume business sales will see to that.
