This is a Le Mans-inspired Peugeot Expert Sport van, yours from £51k

Ever wondered what the Peugeot 9X8 would look like if it lost the chiselled cheekbones and gained some weight? No, us neither. But we’ve got an answer for you anyway: it'd look like this Expert Sport van, which wears an identical livery to the Le Mans competitor.

But that’s not all. 9 ‘XL’ 8 here has a new front lip and mudguards to give those steely eyes even more attitude. There’s a proper rear wing back there too, and 18in twin-spoke alloys cloaked in Nankang rubber. They’re non-slicks, just to confirm.

The interior remains much the same as an original ‘Asphalt’ trim Expert, with the exception being extra badging and matching yellow stitching on the eco-leather seats. That means the 10in infotainment screen remains, as does the ChatGPT-integrated voice control.

It also comes as standard with the Comfort Pack, which adds smartphone charging and dual-zone climate control, plus the Winter Pack, meaning a heated driver’s seat and steering wheel.

The powertrain lineup is pretty simple too. There’s a 183bhp turbo-diesel four-pot, or a 75kWh battery and 134bhp e-motor pairing, good for up to 209 miles of all-electric travel.

The 9XL8 starts at just over £51,000 for the entry-level Sport Panel body type. Far less than what it’d cost to get an actual 9X8 on the road, we’re guessing.
