Peugeot 308THP TKOs Nissan Sentra Turbo
Last Thursday around 4:30am as I was cruising at speed limits from Kuantan to Kuala Lumpur on Karak Expressway suddenly a Nissan Sentra Turbo turned on hi-beams from behind and overtook me in an unfavorable manner.
At first I was forced to follow the car from a comfortable distance while sustaining the same speeds without any intention to cucuk - just to observe and record the drivers behavior, his skill as well as the raw power/handling of his car. Admittedly the car looks powerful on the straight/level part of the Expressway until the last long ascend before Genting Sempah Tunnel where it began to lose power.
Could it be due to mismatch between the gearbox and the engine torque curve... or the driver picked the wrong gear?
The Nissan Sentra Turbo with big wheels/tyres, big exhaust box/tailpipe which made lots of big noise was Technically Knocked Out (TKO) by a fully laden stock Peugeot 308 THP (carrying 4 adults including the driver).

Peugeot GTi Legacy Continues
Many of us know the history of Peugeot’s GTi badge and loved the hot hatches, especially the legendary 205. According to a news not so long ago, Peugeot Marketing Director Christian Stein said “For us, the GTi concept is dead. We will move away from hot hatches towards premium sports coupes [similar to RCZ].”
Fortunately we have a good news - the French manufacturer has decided to continue the GTi badge yet again - the company wants to build the all new Peugeot GTi - that could become Peugeot finest and real hot hatchback since the departure of the 205. The new hot hatch to be called 208GTi aimed at the British and German markets where hot hatches are very popular.
Peugeot want to be re-known for their “precision, allure, style, driver control and excellence” ...and very keen to reinvigorate the reputation it once had for handling and roadholding.
The 208 GTi will be powered by 200THP 1.6liter petrol engine, similar engine which power up the top of the line RCZ. The 208 is expected to be launched in 2012, and seems to be the first Peugeot to be entirely developed based on the SR1 sports concept.
