Smooth punchy sweet-spinning lag-free engine, good ride/handling balance.
Expensive, not particularly sporting.
The sportiest 308 yet is not really that hot, but it's usable and cheap to run.
The 308 GT 175 probably isn't the best bet in its range for residuals. If you opt for the GT 175, after three years/30,000 miles you should get around 38% of the original purchase.
Compare this with the equivalent 48%, three-year residual value you'll get from a 1.4-litre 168bhp Golf and it's clear there is still some work to be done.
