ive already set my mind to buy this car however i cant find a decent colour.. i dont feel of wanting an extreme black or white ..red too feminine,left only the blue(more like purple) and the pinkish silver both are odds colour.
Ive saw peugeot overseas actually have the grey/brown/silver which is what i would have wanted so i hope next year Nasim can add the choice.

whoa...really can reach that speed ? feel like flying ? engine dying? hehe.. 4 speed will be quite straining at high speed right ? high rpm.

yup on a straight highway. we tried on lekas highway laugh.gif

idk but if the 208's gear ratio is the same as mine you'd be looking at 5000+ rpm on the top gear.

usually the dealer will give you a checklist and you can check together with your SA

208 owners, may I know how long was the waiting period for your 208 after booking?
Last time a SA told me it is 1 month. Is this true?

We finally have an owner's club?! Awesome! *crying tears of happiness*

I'm the owner of a white 3-door AT 208, first batch in April/May. Tinted with Huper Optik smile.gif

I've had no problems with my car so far, thank God for that. (I may have just jinxed myself...) Just a minor accident where some of my paint chipped off, but I learned to let it go.

I agree with a bunch of posts here that from a layman's view, the 208 is mostly just aesthetics. Lovely DRLs and headlights, premium interior decor, mood lighting, eye-catching central console... It largely depends on how you feel about the car on first meeting. For me I fell for the aggressive headlights, bright DRLs and the heavy doors. Slamming the door on my 3-door is oddly satisfying. laugh.gif The weight is reassuring too, but need to warn my friends to be careful with it, it swings hard.

Talking about the doors on the 3-door, you have to be careful when opening it... Most parking spaces in Malaysia are too small to accomodate the long doors (!!) So if you're not careful, you can accidentally push the door too hard and slam the next car... Happened a few times to me, thanks goodness the paint doesn't chip easily. Only for the 3-door, I don't think 5-doors have this problem.

Hmm what else...oh, I love the 3D surround sound! I listen to a lot of club/dance with heavy bass, and the speakers adapt well. Zedd, Guetta, Afrojack, Calvin Harris all sound great! If you have the 3-door, try putting one of your favourite songs on slightly high volume, then sitting in the middle backseat and let the music play. Feels like the song is in your head, really creepy! Ahem. But anyway, listening to Il Volo or orchaestra tracks (movie soundtracks; I'm looking at you, Star Trek) are a bit of a let down. Even the Classical music setting is a bit lacking. Need to play around with the settings I guess. But mainstream pop and indie tracks play well enough, so I'm very happy thumbup.gif

Fastest I've gone is 170 km/hr... More than that I don't dare because the car starts to shake. I'll post up my FC later, but I filled up my tank with Primax 95 from the mark above the red zone for about RM40, then I drive from Shah Alam to Putrajaya Monday morning, then do some city driving in Putrajaya (loads of traffic lights, damnnn), and drive back to Shah Alam on Friday. The RM40 is just enough to last me the whole week, returning me back to the original mark. And I do drive in the fast lane a lot on the highways, so...

Anyway that's my two cents... I can try answering any questions, just ask smile.gif

very true on the door's matter. i'm a 3 doors 208 owner, and a lot of my friends or relative always used to open the door too hard (because it's quite heavy) and hit something ._. always make me feel so pain !!!
