The Peugeot 208 is generally affordable to run, with efficient petrol, diesel, and electric options. Fuel costs are low for the 1.2L petrol models, while the e-208 offers savings on charging compared to petrol and diesel.
It depends on the variant - entry-level models are in lower insurance groups (8-15), making them relatively cheap to insure. However, GT and electric variants are in higher groups, leading to more expensive premiums.
Fully comprehensive car insurance offers the highest level of cover and can often be cheaper than the other options.
If your car is damaged in an accident, fully comprehensive is the only level of cover that will protect you financially against any costs related to you or your vehicle. Third-party policies are designed to protect other drivers in the event you cause an accident.
Some of the factors that impact the cost of your car insurance are difficult to change: your job, where you live, how old you are.
But there are tweaks everyone can make to bring down your premiums. These include:
