Peugeot 206 insurance groups and cost by driver’s age

When it comes to working out the cost of your car insurance, all vehicles are given a specific insurance group that ranges from 1 (cheapest) to 50 (most expensive), which helps determine the cost of your premium. Peugeot 206 models range from insurance groups 7 to 25, so the cost of insurance can vary significantly. For example, a 30-year-old driver in an average postcode could pay around £689 for cover on a Peugeot 206 1.1 XL 5d, or around £659 for a Peugeot 206 1.6 Quiksilver 5d.

  • Your age, marital status, job and where you live
  • The model and age of your car

How can I save on my Peugeot 206 premiums?

Car insurance premiums are known to cause a bit of a financial headache among drivers, but don’t panic, we’ve collated a list of advice for you to try that may help you to lower your premiums, and keep them there:

  • Pay annually rather than monthly. By paying annually, you could save an average of £54.52 a year!
  • Make yourself a secure investment. Maintaining a clear history of no claims and a good credit rating will make you appeal to insurance companies, and they may reward you with lower premiums.
  • Be economical about your car usage. By being sparing about your car usage, you can save money on your premiums by keeping your mileage low.
  • Don’t just accept your renewal quote. When it’s time for renewal, make sure you shop around rather than just accepting your renewal quote.
  • Install extra safety precautions. Companies don’t like to insure risks, so the safer your car is, the lower your premium may be. By investing in extra safety measures, you may in turn save money.
  • Avoid driving convictions. Any conviction will increase your premiums, so try your best to avoid them.
