The race is on – to have the ‘drive of your life’

3rd April 2008 Print
Peugeot dealers throughout the UK are hosting special 10 day ‘Drive Away a Great Deal’ events, which will offer customers the chance to win a VIP weekend at the renowned Le Mans 24 Hour Race. Every customer taking a test drive in a new Peugeot between 10th and 20th April will be given the opportunity to enter this exciting competition, with an exclusive trip to the Le Mans 24 Hour Race.

The Peugeot Sport team are also gearing up for this demanding and enduring race, with the high-performance Peugeot 908 HDi FAP. Having finished second in 2007 at its first attempt, Peugeot is aiming to go one better this year and one lucky customer could be there to witness it.

With plenty of models to choose from, including the popular 107, 207 and 308 now is the ideal time to take part in the 10 day test-drive event.

Clearly showcasing Peugeot’s long standing tradition for making fuel efficient cars, which are stylish and great value, the 107 supermini is the most popular low-emissions car in the UK*. It provides drivers with much practicality, but also one that is cheap and affordable to run.

The Peugeot 207 range is also popular with customers who can choose from a number of body styles, all powered by a selection of the latest technology petrol and diesel engines. Some of the favourites include the devilish 207 GTi THP 175 hatchback and the spacious and practical 207 SW, in addition to the chic 207 CC (Coupé Cabriolet) which features a fully automatic electric folding roof – the ultimate ‘must have’ when the British weather starts to hot up.

The new Peugeot 308 has been a great hit with customers too, since its launch last autumn. Offering high levels of comfort, excellent road holding and comprehensive safety equipment, this highly desirable family car is both practical and versatile, combining class leading aerodynamics to reduce fuel consumption and emissions – of only 120g CO2/km on the HDi 90 or HDi 110 engine models.

Neil Moscrop, Sales Director at Peugeot UK, said: “Our 10 day event is a great opportunity for customers to test-drive Peugeot’s great range and find out about the superb low rate finance options we have available. They will also be able to enter our exciting Le Mans promotion, where they could win a Peugeot Sport VIP weekend and get to see Peugeot’s ultimate car in action at this legendary race.”

The race is now on for customers to book a test drive at local dealerships and be part of this exciting event. One lucky Peugeot customer will win a VIP weekend at the Le Mans 24 Hour Race on 14th and 15th June with 10 runners-up, each winning a pair of tickets for the Le Mans Series Race at Silverstone in September.
