Peugeot 308 dimensions

The Peugeot 308 CC gets an enormous gaping grille, making it something of an purchased taste. The rest of the vehicle is more traditional, and we particularly like the swooping curve of the folding roof when it's up, and the clean shoulder line when it's stowed. The back bumper now has a diffuser-style lower lip, with air-channelling fins, as found on racing vehicles. We're not sure if they gave us more grip at high speed, but they certainly exterior good.

With the roof up the Peugeot 308 CC has a bigger boot than the hatch, due to its extra width. If you want to enjoy the sun, pop open the boot and extend a net partition which ensures your luggage is in the correct position, and then the roof folds down into this room. The roof can be operated at speeds up to 7. 5mph and takes around 20 seconds to transform the vehicle from coupe to cabriolet.

versions include Sport, SE and GT and include 16-inch wheels, air-con, a radio and CD player plus a locking glovebox and central locker as traditional. The SE model adds 17-inch alloys, auto wipers and headlights, ambient dashboard lighting, cruise control, conditioning, alarm and white instrument dials. The top GT spec vehicles are fitted with 18-inch wheels, leather trim, Airwave scarf, tyre pressure sensor, parking sensors and an updated audio system.
