  • Special edition model is limited to just 2,000 cars
  • Priced from £13,495 OTR and available with PEUGEOT’s innovative ‘Just Add Fuel®’ package
PEUGEOT is introducing a new limited-run special edition of the hugely popular, award-winning 208 hatchback. The new ‘208 XS’ brings an additional trim level to the already extensive range and is arriving in UK showrooms soon, with enhanced personalisation and increased desirability.

Available with one of the most efficient engines in its segment - the 1.2-litre PureTech 82hp petrol engine - the 208 XS comes in both three and five door body styles and builds on the Active model’s impressive specification. The 208 XS model features 16’’ alloy wheels, front fog lights, exterior personalisation and white paint as standard.
The special XS edition is limited to just 2,000 vehicles and brings additional personalisation to the package for as little as £100 more versus a 208 Active taken in Bianca White. Those lucky enough to order the 208 XS have a choice of five colours and two exterior personalisation packs. Bianca White, Nera Black metallic or the Ice Silver textured paint come with the Lime Yellow exterior pack.  Virtual Blue and Orange Power metallic come with the Menthol White exterior pack. 
These five colours were chosen specifically to complement the exclusive personalisation available on the 208 XS variant. This includes 16” Technical Grey Titane alloy wheels, Equaliser grille with gloss black surround, gloss black door mirrors with coloured accents in Menthol White or Lime Yellow and Fog light finishers. To further distinguish the XS from other variants, XS badging is present on both front wings.
The PEUGEOT i-Cockpit® is unique to the brand and embodies the driving characteristics of the PEUGEOT 208, being agile, intuitive and safe. The compact sports steering wheel offers precise steering and improved manoeuvrability while the 7” multifunction colour touch screen puts all the functionality at the driver’s fingertips. Plus the raised instrument panel allows all driver information to be accessed without taking the eyes off the road.
As well as the additional standard equipment, all 208 XS models also benefit from: 7” multifunction colour touchscreen with Carplay®, DAB radio, Bluetooth and USB, Cruise control with speed limiter and air-conditioning.
The PEUGEOT 208 XS is available to order now, priced from just £13,495 and is available, from age 18, through PEUGEOT’s innovative ‘Just Add Fuel®’ package, which provides drivers with a single monthly payment for all the major motoring costs: comprehensive motor insurance, road fund licence, vehicle servicing, roadside assistance and warranty all in a three-year finance package.

The Peugeot 108, 208 and 2008 now come with Added Telematics on the Just Add Fuel offer.

  • Peugeot is extending the availability of its innovative Just Add Fuel® finance package with ‘Telematics’ to 208* and 2008 models as well as the 108 which debuted this appealing offer
  • Sales of Peugeot 108 to adults (over 18-years) with Telematics have seen an increase in demand
  • Now also available in Northern Ireland
Just Add Fuel®, PEUGEOT’s  innovative fixed-cost motoring finance package recently made available to teenage drivers who buy a new Peugeot 108 with a plug-in telematics device has been extended to a wider audience with the 208* and 2008 model range. Drivers in Northern Ireland can also take advantage of the finance package for the very first time.

Since its launch in July 2010, some 30,000 UK drivers have been attracted by the Just Add Fuel® finance package’s low single fixed monthly payment that covers all motoring costs for a three year period;
  • No need to budget separately for insurance^, servicing, road fund licence~, and roadside assistance costs – as they are all included
  • No need to search for cheaper insurance each year – it stays the same over the three-year term
  • Fixed price motoring for three years means complete peace-of-mind
  • A completely transparent motoring package with no hidden costs, ◦Representative 4.9% APR.
  • The opportunity to drive a new car every three years, with no MOT or other costs to worry about
Until recently it had only been available to drivers aged 21 or over, but PEUGEOT has again rewritten the retail rule book and, due to telematics technology which monitors a driver’s movements, younger motorists can benefit for the first time on a new 208* or 2008 vehicle as well as 108.
Mark Pickles, PEUGEOT UK Marketing Director, commented: “Just Add Fuel®isrecognisedas the most significant innovation in vehicle retailing for many years, and this now extends to potential owners of 208* and 2008 vehicles, as well as the 108, further widening its appeal. Our Dealers have experienced an increase in retail sales to adults over 18 years of age since the launch of our new telematics product.”
The low monthly costs are made possible with a discreet telematics device; On 108 this plug in device is sent to customers immediately after taking delivery of their car and it attaches to the On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) port under the steering wheel via a simple installation they can do themselves. On 208 and 2008, customers will receive an installer-fitted unit which an engineer will install.
Via satellite tracking, the telematics device stores and sends data on the vehicle’s speed, acceleration, deceleration and lateral G-forces which is then used to assess the customer’s driving style and rate each journey made on a scale from 1–100. Customers can access their driving activity via an online portal.
This is regularly monitored by the insurer and an aggregate score awarded. Feedback is provided to assist the customer in improving this if deemed necessary. If the score falls below an agreed threshold, the driver will receive a warning.  Four warnings a year will result in the insurance policy being cancelled.  Terms and conditions apply.
Just Add Fuel® with telematics is also available to PEUGEOT 108, 208* and 2008 buyers aged between 21-75 who do not have two years’ No Claim Discount, or have held a full UK driver’s licence for less than two years.
