Question 1

What should I check on a used Peugeot 208's manual gearbox?

Accepted Answer

Go through every gear on the test drive: a notchy or crunching change, or a clutch that bites very high, points to wear. On a high-mileage 208, ask whether the clutch has already been replaced.

Question 2

Is a manual or an automatic Peugeot 208 better to buy used?

Accepted Answer

A manual costs less to buy and is simpler to maintain, while the EAT6 and EAT8 automatics suit commuting traffic. If you want smooth shifts, avoid the ETG automated manual of some early first-generation cars.

Question 3

Is there a manual Peugeot e-208?

Accepted Answer

No, the electric e-208 has a single fixed ratio and drives like an automatic, with no gear changes. In Luxembourg it pays the flat €30 road tax.

Question 4

Does a used Peugeot 208 need a contrôle technique to change hands in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

Yes, re-registering it in your name at the SNCA needs a valid contrôle technique certificate. The test is due at four and six years after first registration, then every year.
