Peugeot has just announced plans to produce 54 units of the 208 GTi Limited Edition, 29 of which will be heading to the United Kingdom.
According to the French carmaker, the number 29 represents the numbers of years since the UK launch of the original 205 GTi in 1984. Each of the cars is going to be individually numbered and and will come with an exclusive satin pearlescent white paint, 17-inch carbon onyx black alloy wheels with 205/45 tires and a Union Jack flag print on the lower front grille.
Under the hood, the 208 GTi is powered by a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that shared by the RCZ THP 200. It produces 197 hp and 275 Nm of torque and is mated to a six-speed manual transmission. This allows the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than 7 seconds.
Production is scheduled for April next year, while deliveries will start one month later. The Peugeot GTi Limited Edition has starting price at £20,495.
