The model codes tell you the body style:

  • ...B1: 3-door version
  • ...H1: 5-door version
  • ...P1: 3-door convertible version
  • ...W1: 5-door convertible version

The maximum power is the value type-approved on a test bed, under conditions defined in European legislation (Directive 1999/99/EC). The design of your 108 does not permit a towbar to be fitted. For more information, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.

Dimensions (mm)

The handbook gives your 108's dimensions in millimetres. These dimensions have been measured on an unladen vehicle, so they will not reflect the car with passengers or luggage on board.

Identification markings

Your 108 carries identification markings in three places. The handbook shows them separately for the 3-door and 5-door versions.

  • A. VIN on the bodywork: stamped on the middle door pillar or rear door pillar, on the right-hand side.
  • B. VIN in the passenger compartment: stamped on the crossmember, under the front right-hand seat.
  • C. Tyre label: on the middle door pillar, on the driver's side. It shows the tyre sizes and the inflation pressures.

Check the tyre label whenever you need the correct sizes or pressures for your tyres.
