Heading into the Goodwood Festival of Speed this past weekend, insiders speculated that we'd have a new top time on our hands.

Attempting to grab that light and make sure it shines everywhere, the company is returning the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb on June 30 with a specially prepared 208 driven by nine-time World Rally Ch
The successor to the Peugeot 207 line, the 208, made an appearance under the lights of the Geneva Motor Show this week.
