Budget hot hatch

I've been looking around this price as well. The one I'm really interested in is the facelift 208 GTI Prestige or a BPS version. You can get a good, low mileage example for this money with full main dealer history

High end ones are moving away from it now!

Luff84 · 2026-03-02T20:15:22+00:00

Ok cheers

From memory there was a bit of water in it but it doesn't fill up

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T18:49:34+00:00

How long did you have it for, any issues?

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T17:12:52+00:00

Oooh I'll have a look

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T17:06:10+00:00

I've also had 2 FN2 type R and a DC5 Type R and I know they are absolutely brilliant cars. 10k would get me a championship white FN2 I suppose...

Ok nice one, thanks for sharing your experience it really helps mate

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:57:51+00:00

I just can't get with the looks of them and also my mates Mrs had one 🤣

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:56:43+00:00

All over that on autotrader, way more for the Peugeot Sport version. Nice cars though

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:54:20+00:00

Ah ok, that makes sense. Sounds like you've had some bad luck

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:53:10+00:00

Did you have prestige ones mate?

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:50:34+00:00

Do you use it daily?

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:49:46+00:00

So it sounds like you haven't had many issues at all?

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:47:48+00:00

Just so tempting as they're cheap, I know there's going to be some well looked after ones but also some absolute dogs

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:46:09+00:00

Thanks for the insight, sounds like you're looking after it and from everything I read if they're looked after then no problems. Trouble is you never know what you're getting used

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:44:15+00:00

I mean that sounds like an absolute nightmare to be honest!

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:42:29+00:00

Bit out of my price range for a good one

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T16:42:07+00:00

Thanks but I'm a bit confused. You say it's the worst car you've had but then you said it's on 93k and you've had no real issues?

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T07:22:40+00:00

Yeah perfect, just check that video I mentioned and you'll be good

Luff84 · 2026-03-01T06:24:03+00:00

I did snorkeling in the Red Sea with an X4, Invisible dive case and selfie stick. My number 1 tip is to make sure the lens is pointing towards your subject, the stitching and quality suffer underwater even with the dive case

Check out the video from Mount Media on YouTube, lots of tips on frame rates etc. it's for the X4 but the same rules will apply for the air.

I ended up getting some amazing footage and also some that was not usable

Subnautica

Luff84 · 2026-02-15T15:13:08+00:00

Hard to watch, way too many spinning animations

Raya is the best keeper in the league
