For The 1.4 has just about enough poke to cope with the car's bulk. It's the cheapest version to buy, and you can expect pretty good fuel returns, too.

Against Performance from the entry-level 1.4 isn't exactly brisk. Access is the only trim level to do without alloy wheels.

The price and kit of this version may look appealing, but we think it's better to spend a bit more and get a more powerful engine.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

The more you spend on your Peugeot 308 SW, the more it becomes like a mini-MPV. Although the base Access and SR trims come with a conventional 60/40-split centre row of seats, Active and Allure models have individual seats in the second row. Another two seats, that can be bolted into the boot floor, are available as an option.

We reckon Active and SR trim are the sweet points in the range – Access cars are a little too basic, Allure cars are a little too expensive.

As with the 308 hatchback, the SW works best with the 110bhp 1.6-litre diesel engine. It’s smooth, flexible and gives really impressive economy.
