This nippy and frugal city car is available for around £3500 when used, but is there a catch?
The 108 is reasonably agile and the consistently weighted steering is a blessing, but it's not the slickest of city cars to drive. The relatively short clutch-pedal travel and lack of biting-point feel can take some getting used to.
There’s little sense of what the 108’s front wheels are doing through fast bends, but the steering’s consistent weighting provides some confidence. What’s more important for city cars is low-speed manoeuvrability, and most will find the 108’s set-up light enough to make tight turns and supermarket parking easy. The relatively quick steering and the shortage of body lean in corners also help make the 108 feel suitably agile when negotiating busy traffic.
Space in the front is fine, and you get some door pockets to store water bottles, plus some large cupholders and space for phones just ahead of the gear lever. Access to the rear is awkward, though – even in the five-door – because of the small opening, and rear leg room is tight for most adults.
