erm.. but there will not be any joy when driving below 1.5krpm lol...

btw we should not buy car for FC! =p tak nak!

yeap.. no joy at all... but its worth trying...

car comes in a package.. fc, handling, comfort, good look...

The 308t might be a 1.6 turbo but it seriously sucks in terms of power compared to polo tsi .

Once u drive a vw , u will never drive a peugeot. This i guarantee u. Peugeot are very "soft " cars.

308t got turbo but very soft turbo. No feel at all.

The 308t is a slouch if u compare it to the polo tsi. No match at all. In a drag race, a polo tsi 1.2 would destroy the 308t easily. TSI engines are really incredible!

Don't be an idiot.
308t has a 0-100 time of 9.1s
polo 1.2 has a time of 9.7s

Tell me how a 1.2 polo would destroy 308t ? f***ing twat.

Actually, the real time for 308T is 8.8 secs...stock..many owners swear by it.....they only put the 9.1 for ppl with bear belly like me...haha..

The only reason I bought the 308T is compared to the similar price range C segment, it gave me all I wanted. Kids and wife also loved it. Definitely bigger interior than B segment, although it is kinda small for a C segment.

I wouldn't trade if for a polo cos it wont fit my family in there...unless I'm bachelor or newly wed.

But I still like the Polo Gti..looks nice....Golf Gti?....Dream dream...really hate it when I park at petronas at my taman...got one Golf Gti always park beside me

See,still got idiots in this world like you rely on paper specs rather than real life scenario.

You are welcome to drag ur 308t and a polo tsi .We shall see who win.

Sometimes , I cant believe got such fools around

To give u a rough idea of how the 308t loses to a polo tsi,watch this video.

Might not be that professional,but at least its something to prove that the 308t indeed is slower than the polo tsi and blow ur stupid 9.1s 9.7s theory out of the window fag.

I bet after u watch this vid,ur still gonna give some lameshit excuses!

308T vs Polo TSI

Those that drive 308T should know is the car adapt to the driving style...so for those always driving in the town...gonna be hard to get a good 0~100 figures...or even pass 170km/h....unless the sport mode or Tiptronic was used for that sprint purpose

Anyway, I could imagine the polo beat the 308T in the century dash, cause, even up against an ahbeng Vios, the Vios only loses by not much...can read the number plates of the Vios from the side mirrors....but of course, the 308T pulls away by miles after that.

no doubt for top speed, pug308t is faster.. higher speed require high max power n capacity

but for acceleration, it all comes down to engine, torque, transmission, power to weight ratio...

Pug might hav the higher torque and horse power, but peak torque at 2000rpm, bigger turbo with slightly longer turbo lag, heavier body, and very conventional 6 speed torque converter Aisin tranny..

Polo is lighter, peak torque at 1500rpm, and much more advance transmission gearbox...

9.1s vs 9.7s is pretty neck to neck and on real life, maybe its evenly match..

if wanna bring out the one that matched Pug308t in terms of power and torque, it got to be Golf TSI, and on paper, its already 0-100km/h in 8s.. having advantage on supercharge and DSG..

so, max power and torque is not everything, but the delivery is more important.. its just like giving Usian Bolt running with a balle shoe, it is still not able to unleash its raw potential..

anyway, just hav fun with your cars that you have... cheers..

yes bro.. at higher speed, its all about who has a bigger balls.. Myvi, Saga can tapao a lot cars if they have bigger balls to go beyong 170km/h

I enjoy the quick dash off the line at green light, over taking at low speed in town, which comes pretty handy with the little turbocharge.. no chance of 100km/h in jam pack area, so who is quicker reaching 100km/h doesnt apply much in real life, but maneuver around town with ease with the help of the little turbo is much more practical.. 1500rpm is enough to charge the Polo forward at low speed..

also..but good cars with nice steering feel..driving 200 like nothing

the 308t is heavy bro, and it cant take corners that well..for a conti car it does have a bit of body roll..

Aiyo guys. Suddenly i feel that the title should change to "VW Polo 1.2 VS Peugeot 308 Turbo, Racer car, Please help".

haha both r not!

agree,, racer different league than these

Id like to add from a 308 FL Turbo owner`s perspective.
In all honesty, many of the comments here are true to a certain extent.

In terms of performance and looks, its individual preference. No one can change your mind there.You just need to get out and test drive. Get a feel for it. AND admire it. Check out the visual, curves of the car. No one can decide here but you.

On alignment issues, surprisingly mine is not that bad at all. There are SC who can re-align for you for FOC espc glenmarie i think. Im not planning to fix mine, got used to it.

It is a heavy car. 200kG lighter now for FL version.Its still heavy and you can feel the weight. SOLID feel which is what some ppl look for in a car. You want something safe when youre driving. It feels re-assuring. ALSO, if you are into light cars, myvi (TIN CAN) is ridiculous. Ppl pay for weight.

If you are looking for a sports car, PLS make no mistake that it is NOT A HOT HATCH!!! I have no idea why ppl are still under the assumption.WHY BRAG? It does not fall under the same racing segment.Its a fun performance car around the city nonetheless. If you enjoy pushing your vehicles to 180km on the highway, this car is awesome =)

As for aircond, I have noticed that it requires some time for the car to warm up before the aircond really kicks in full gear. If its a major issue then POLO all the way.

AND YES, to quote one of the bros here, VW is branded for some reason. NOT REALLY a huge car person per say for hatchbacks. Im more of exec car fan. Anyhow, it never crossed my mind that VW is branded. I lived in UK for years. THey are littered on the streets there. Its like Proton over there. Nothing fancy my friend. So you need to look at cost benefit here. UNLIKE GUCCI or LV, Polo is exp because of the gov tax. I can actually vouch that LV makes GREAT QUALITY ITEMS that can last for years and years. You paying for that, plus a little flash.

bro, if u wanna talk about cheaper polo oversea, same can be said about 308 bro

in the UK : 308= as low as 13,000 pounds and polo=12,000 pounds

so both cars are not value for money if using the same logic. unless u compare them with national car which got no tax

Too bad the 1.4 TSi does not come with launch control. Not that it would surprise many if a Golf were to outsprint anyone else at the traffic lights .... but to see an old Skoda Octavia II pulling just as fast off the line can be quite fun.

boss... saw your write up on Skoda, looks pretty nice after refurbishing it and great bargain.. mayb i should had thought of that getting a Fabia for RM25k ..
