Peugeot 208 2014 Video Review

Hot hatch wars are like American invasions - they come about once every ten years and when they do, there's no mucking around.

Just such a thing is taking place right now in Australia - from a measly two properly hot hatches 12 months ago, one of them breathtakingly overpriced, we now have five to choose.

From this list of five are two of the most anticipated cars of the decade. The Fiesta ST got rave reviews in Europe before it got similarly effusive reviews here in Australia. The Peugeot 208 GTi was the first sign of a genuinely good hot hatch from the French company in a very long time and was also revelling in positive press.

And so we've put them together, as the best of what you can buy today, to help you choose. And for us to have an enormous amount of fun finding out.
