All French hatchbacks have a reputation for losing a lot of value very quickly, but Peugeot is heading in the right direction with the 308. It's estimated at typically around £800 better than a 307 after three years or 60,000 miles, and better than rivals such as the Renault Megane and Ford Focus. It's some way short of the VW Golf, but then a Golf will cost more to buy and run.
