Pros	Cons

Lots of different colours and finishes	Some rivals are cheaper to insure
Affordable running costs	Early entry-level cars lack air conditioning

Quick Summary

The Peugeot 108 (2014-2020) is a diminutive city car that shares its platform with the Citroën C1 and Toyota Aygo. Available in three- and five-door bodystyles, and uniquely with an optional retractable fabric roof, the 108 is an entry-level Peugeot designed for affordability and simplicity. At under 3.5 metres long with a 9.6-metre turning circle, it excels in urban environments and tight parking spaces, making it popular with learners and first-time buyers. The engine line-up comprises two small petrol units: a 68bhp 1.0-litre and an 82bhp 1.2-litre Puretech, with most paired to a five-speed manual gearbox.

Running costs are impressively low, with fuel economy ranging from 50-58.9mpg depending on engine and specification. Cars registered before April 2017 benefit from zero Vehicle Excise Duty due to sub-100g/km CO₂ emissions, whilst insurance groups remain competitive at 6-13. The 108 is nimble and confidence-inspiring in town, with quick steering and light controls, though it can feel noisy on motorways. Mid-range and top-spec models are well-equipped with modern infotainment, whilst the car's four-star Euro NCAP rating and standard safety features provide reassurance. As a used purchase, the 108 represents excellent value for budget-conscious buyers seeking reliable, economical city transport.

Best for: First-time buyers, learners, urban commuters, and those seeking affordable, economical city car transport with low running costs.

Not ideal for: Drivers requiring spacious boot capacity, those doing frequent motorway journeys, or buyers seeking premium badge appeal or advanced safety technology.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the 108 if: You're a first-time buyer or learner seeking affordable, economical city car transport with low running costs and easy driveability.

Consider alternatives if: You require spacious boot capacity, do frequent motorway journeys, or prioritise premium badge appeal and advanced safety technology.

Competitive Position: The Peugeot 108 (2014-2020) is a capable city car offering excellent value as a used purchase. Whilst rivals like the Toyota Aygo match its user ratings and the Kia Picanto and Volkswagen Up score higher with experts, the 108 remains a sensible choice for budget-conscious buyers. Its affordability, low running costs, ease of driving, and variety of specifications make it particularly appealing for urban commuters and first-time car owners. However, those prioritising spacious interiors or advanced technology may find newer competitors more compelling.
