Peugeot Insurance
Tailored insurance for French excellence
When you own a Peugeot, you’re driving a vehicle that represents over 200 years of French engineering heritage and innovation. At Chris Knott Insurance, we understand that whether you drive a practical family hatchback, a sporty GTI, or a classic 205 Rallye, your Peugeot deserves insurance cover that recognises its unique character and your individual needs.
From the latest 208 and 3008 models to cherished classics like the 106 Rallye and 405 Mi16, our experienced team has the knowledge and tailored insurer relationships to secure protection for your Peugeot at suitable rates.
What makes Peugeot car insurance different?
Peugeot vehicles span an incredibly diverse range, from efficient city cars like the 108 to family SUVs such as the 5008, and from hot hatches like the 208 GTI to commercial vehicles. This diversity means that insurance requirements can vary significantly depending on your specific model and how you use your vehicle.
French cars often have unique characteristics that standard insurers may not fully understand. Peugeot’s innovative engineering, from its award-winning small engines to advanced safety systems, requires insurers who appreciate these technological advances and can price policies accordingly.
What Peugeot models can we insure?
Our cover extends across the entire Peugeot range, from the latest models rolling off the production line to cherished classics that represent the best of French heritage.
Current Peugeot Range
- City Cars – The efficient 108 offers economical urban transport with surprisingly low running costs, making it an ideal choice for new drivers and city dwellers seeking affordable motoring.
- Superminis – The award-winning 208 range, including the electric e-208 and performance-focused GTI variants, represents modern Peugeot design and engineering excellence.
- Family Hatchbacks – The 308 series sources practical family transport with efficient engines and advanced technology, while GTI versions offer thrilling performance for enthusiasts.
- SUVs and Crossovers – From the compact 2008 to the spacious 5008, Peugeot’s SUV range combines French style with practical versatility for modern families.
- Estate and SW Models – Practical load-carrying variants across the range source the perfect blend of style and functionality for those needing extra space.
Performance and Special Editions
Peugeot’s performance heritage shines through models like the 208 GTI, 308 GTI, and the distinctive RCZ coupe. These vehicles require tailored understanding from insurers who appreciate their enhanced capabilities and enthusiast appeal.
Limited edition models and special variants often command premium values and require tailored cover that reflects their exclusivity and potential for appreciation.
Classic Peugeot Models
For owners of classic Peugeot vehicles, we understand that these cars represent more than mere transportation. Models like the iconic 205 GTI, the rallying legend 106 Rallye, the sophisticated 405 Mi16, and the elegant 406 Coupe require tailored agreed value cover.
Our classic car expertise ensures that appreciating values, originality, and historical significance are properly reflected in your cover, protecting your investment in French heritage.
What factors influence your Peugeot insurance premium?
Understanding the elements that affect your costs helps you make informed decisions about cover and risk management. Several factors impact the cost of insuring your Peugeot:
- Model and Specification – Engine size, performance level, and safety features all influence premium calculations
- Driver Profile – Age, driving history, and location play crucial roles in determining your individual risk profile
- Usage Patterns – Annual mileage, commuting distance, and storage arrangements affect your premium
- Security Features – Factory-fitted and aftermarket security systems can help reduce costs
- Claims History – Your previous claims experience influences future premium calculations
- Postcode – Local crime rates and accident statistics affect regional pricing
Storage and Security
Where and how you store your Peugeot can significantly impact your premium. Secure garage storage, particularly with additional security measures, sources better protection for your vehicle and can help reduce insurance costs.
Modern Peugeot vehicles often come equipped with advanced security systems, but additional measures such as steering wheel locks, immobilisers, and tracking devices can source further premium reductions.
Driving Experience
Your personal driving record and experience with similar vehicles influence your premium calculation. New drivers may find certain Peugeot models particularly accessible, while performance variants typically require more experienced drivers.
What coverage options are available for your Peugeot?
Our insurers policies can be tailored to suit your specific requirements, whether you’re insuring a daily driver, weekend toy, or cherished classic.
Core Cover Elements
- Comprehensive Cover – Protection against collision, theft, vandalism, and other risks that could affect your Peugeot. This represents the highest level of protection available.
- Third Party, Fire and Theft – Essential protection that covers your legal obligations to other road users while also protecting against fire and theft risks to your own vehicle.
- Third Party Only – The minimum legal requirement that protects against claims from other parties but doesn’t cover damage to your own Peugeot.
Additional Protection Options
- Agreed Value Policies – Particularly beneficial for classic or modified Peugeot models where standard market valuations may not reflect true worth or replacement costs.
- Modified Car Cover – Tailored protection for enhanced or personalised Peugeot vehicles, ensuring modifications are properly declared and covered. Breakdown Cover – Roadside assistance and recovery services to keep you mobile when things go wrong.
