The Return of Peugeot 50-series

The first Peugeot I'd owned was 5o5SR [M] and co-incidentally it was the last model of the 5o-series ever produced.
The 10-yr old car was sold in 1994 because I had to leave. Expected to get later model of the series something like 5o6 once I'd settled 'there'.

Today [after 15-yrs waiting] Peugeot comes out with the all new 5o8. The 5o8 would be the return of the 5o-series that hasn’t been seen since the 5o5. The long anticipated Peugeot 5o-series will not only fill the gap between 4o7 and 6o7 but will merge the 4o-series and 6o-series. Now say goodbye to 4o- and 6o-series ....

    As far as 'GTi' badge is concerned I would prefer either Polo or Golf though...

  4. Good price! Go for it Verm.

    I heard the price of the all new Polo GTi is around 140k too...lots cheaper than Pug 308GTi

    Can't resist the supercharger+turbo 179ps POLO, 7-speed DSG, 0-100kph in less than 7sec, and reviews says top speed around 230kph!
