The 2 litre uses the well proven 407 engine mated with a 308VTi gearbox. Both are proven to be reliable and fuss free

I heard the 4 speed gb used by the 2.0 na is prone to problems , no?

If you're comparing against the AL4 that's found in the 407, yes, it has jerk issues, especially at low speeds. But the 408 2.0 shares the same gearbox as the 308VTi which is AT8 and we don't hear much complaints about gearbox jerks from VTi owners

I see, but i thought i saw a sticker written AL4 sticked on the gear knob when i went to see the car

it is just a sticker. the transmission is called AT8 (which is a development over the older AL4).

I see, they should have used the right sticker then. Not sure how is the service n maintenance cost

Test driven both 408 2.0 and 408T, true to the findings of most forumers, the 2.0 is tuned to have a more comfortable ride while the 1.6T is tuned to be more sporty. I think the main difference is that the 1.6T steering feels heavier, but very powerful. Personally I prefer the 2.0.

Booked 408 2.0 last week, SA told could get the by the end of the month. Got coupon for tinted and extra floor mat, no GPS.

Also just know that 408 doesn't come with alarm, notice on web 308 doesn't come with alarm also.
Remember that the SA told me if you needed a new set of keys, need to order it from France. Nobody can do it here. It that right??

Ya i was told the key fr france . Anyone fr penang got any promotion ? Sa told me could give nothing .

The more I think,the more want the turbo.More than the engine,I am keen on all the additional safety features which the NA lacks. I was one of the few who booked the week it was launched,should get my car next week. The key is not an issue for me,have never lost any of my previous car keys. All these codeded keys are expensive.

Right sa told me forte key costs more than 408´s

To be honest, there are many peugeot fans around including myself but many have turned away after learning so many service n after sales problems.
