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.
