Eh, podcenjujes 307, a nisi video moj! 
Mada, redo cu ga zameniti jednim ovakvim...
Ne znam da li je neki nas casopis pisao o ovom auticu, ali ovo je clanak iz UK Auto Expressa.
There's something about to hatch at Peugeot! In this week's issue of Auto Express you can see the first pictures of the all-new 308, the replacement for the 307. Based on top-secret insider information from parent company PSA, they are bound to send shockwaves through the French maker's top brass. Why? Because they reveal exactly how the car will look when it hits showrooms towards the end of 2006.
The most obvious element of our exclusive images is how the 308 gains Peugeot's new family look, with a nose similar to that of the recently introduced 407. The steeply raked headlamps are based on those of the 206-based H2O concept shown at the Paris Motor Show two years ago. But in profile, the car is leaner and lower than the 307, answering the biggest criticism levelled at the styling of the current model.
Our pictures show a five-door version of the 308, and according to our sources, the three-door will be completely different. It will get an even more streamlined roof and a coupé-like rear, similar to that of the new three-door Vauxhall Astra. In addition, Estate, SW and Coupé Cabriolet models will appear later, with the first two planned for 2007 and the CC for 2008. An MPV is also expected.
Distinctive traits on both three and five-door cars will include Peugeot's trademark 'wide-mouthed' grille and thick A-pillars. Inside, the newcomers will have a simple yet effective cabin layout. Controls will be kept to a minimum to free up storage space, while the dash is expected to be trimmed in a suede-like fabric to match the external colour scheme. With the rear wheels as far back as possible, it means buyers should get plenty of rear legroom.
The current 307's engine range is relatively modern, so few changes are likely when the 308 debuts. The base 307's 1.4-litre unit will be dropped for a 90bhp direct-injection 1.6 petrol powerplant, but the 138bhp and 180bhp 2.0 engines will remain more or less unchanged. Diesel options will include an entry-level 75bhp 1.4-litre engine, along with 90 and 110bhp 1.6 choices. The range-topping oil-burner will be powered by a 136bhp 2.0 unit, and is expected to be offered in sporty GTi guise alongside more conventional trims.
The car is expected to benefit from Peugeot's traditionally impressive handling characteristics. It will be based on a new platform - effectively a shortened version of the 407's - and will come with an advanced drive-by-wire braking system. The set-up links middle pedal inputs to the discs and pads by computer, doing away with the need for any kind of cable connection.
With the car aimed at small family hatchback rivals, safety is a key factor in the 308's marketing strategy. Multiple airbags will be standard, along with a host of electronic stability aids to keep the car on the straight and narrow.
Although official launch details are still under wraps, we understand the 308 has been pencilled in for a world debut at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show. It will arrive in European showrooms that summer, and UK dealers can expect deliveries in the autumn. Prices will be similar to those of the 307.
