"Even though the registration letter now changes twice each year, our customers still get very excited about the launch of the new registration.

"This September they have more reason than ever to be driven to distraction by the new registration deals available from Peugeot, with a host of summer special editions, a stunning product range and an X-ceptional opportunity to save."
