French revolution: new Peugeot 208 rewrites the rulebook

Peugeot has shown the first ever pictures of the brand new 208, and accompanied them with all sorts of wild and exciting claims.

Mainly, Peugeot says that the new 208 is "an icon" that "rewrites the rulebook". Of course, all carmakers wax lyrical about their new cars while they can – before cynical car journalists get the chance to nitpick them into oblivion – but based on these new pictures at least, the new small Pug could be the real deal.
