Dull and dreary weather made me appreciate our Peugeot 208’s optional £400 panoramic glass roof, which allowed welcome light into the cabin when the two-piece blind was pushed right back.

One of the most popular model options, the panoramic glass complements the chevron-shaped features on the front and rear of the roof, and incorporates blue ambient interior lighting round the glazed perimeter.

As well as letting in the light, the pundits from the value guides also claim that the glass ceiling bolsters residual values due to enhanced used car appeal.
