Peugeot 508 fleet

The accident management company, Easi-Drive, has become the first UK company to take delivery of the new Peugeot 508, with thirty-eight cars (mixture of saloon and SWs) being handed over. Easi-Drive manages a fleet of more than 1,000 vehicles and this delivery for the Manchester-based company, adds to their existing Peugeot models (207, 308, 5008 and RCZ sports coupe).

Easi-Drive Director, Dan Bellamy, said,”We started the company 10 years ago with just five cars, two of which were Peugeot. We’ve grown at a phenomenal rate and as we’ve expanded, so too has our fleet of Peugeot cars. As soon as I heard Peugeot was bringing out a new large family car I knew instantly we had to include it on our fleet”. Peugeot 508 car leasing is on the site now with all models available.

Peugeot 5008

Peugeot has recorded strong sales in April as they approach their 200th anniversary this month. The UK car market was up by 11.5% increase in April, however Peugeot recorded an impressive 21.6%, with strongest sales for its HDI diesel models which were up 53.4%.

This growth was a combination of both retail and fleet customers and two models in particular, the Peugeot 3008 (What Car? Car of the Year 2010) and the Peugeot 5008 (What Car? MPV of the Year 2010), were strong sellers. Peugeot has sold nearly 6,000 models of the Peugeot 107, 207, 308, 3008 and 5008 in the first four months of this year.
