They say you should buy French perfumes and Germans cars, not the other way around. But there are some pretty decent fragrances made by the Germans, so why not give this car a second look.
It's the Peugeot 308, the new one which is supposed to rival the new Golf. That's high expectation to have of any Peugeot, so the designers tried to make it as close to its rival as they could. There's a serious, Germanic feel to the 308's design, not like the 208 which was a lot cuter.
There's also a big of SEAT's character in there, because like the Leon, the 308 can be fitted with LED headlights.
Still, we've never seen a German designer taking the lotus position while still in a suit to have a look at his creation.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
