New Peugeot 208 now available to order

The wait is almost over for UK drivers looking to get behind the wheel of the all-new Peugeot 208.

While the model is not officially released until June 28th, orders are now being taken for those looking to get their hands on the car as soon as possible.

Peugeot is expecting high demand for the motor, which boasts impressive eco credentials and a tardis-like interior.

Indeed, the firm has published some pre-sale information showing that the new one-litre, three-cylinder petrol engine emits just 99g/km of CO2, while the 208 is "smaller on the outside, but bigger on the inside".

The French company has also confirmed that prices for the hotly-anticipated 208 will start from just £9,995 and will qualify for the Just Add Fuel programme.

"Specification also plays a key role with the 208 story and key equipment has been integrated across the range to ensure class leading specification, including the new touch-screen which will be standard on 80 per cent of sales," Peugeot explained.
