Peugeot 308 GTi has arrived in the UK but rebadged as the 308 GT THP 200. Available only as a five-door model, the hot hatch priced at £21,995 OTR in Britain.

Powered by Peugeot’s 1.6-liter turbocharged 200-horsepower THP petrol engine mated to a six-speed gearbox, the new 308 GT THP 200 can get from 0-62mph (100km/h) in 7.7 seconds and reach a top speed of 140mph (225km/h).

Peugeot 308 GT THP 200 gets a revised suspension and steering wheel system as well as bigger brakes and 18-inch alloy wheels with 225/40 R18 tyres. For interior wise, there are sports seats, aluminium pedals & gear lever knob, a leather steering wheel and a black lacquer fascia front panel.

I suppose this car will be coming to be feature in the coming Top Gear UK series and review by Jeremy Clarkson, James May or Richard Hammond. Therefore, I genuinely looking forward on how they going to power slide this 308 GT THP 200, which is a hot hatch powered by front wheel drive. Maybe they use other ways to…. :)
