How to get a year’s free car insurance when you buy a new Citroën

It is an ideal car for first-time drivers, with great manoeuvrab­ility and a host of other great features

-

ARE you thinking of driving into autumn with a new car? It could well be a time of change on the motoring front, with the latest registrati­on plates now in.

And making a pitch for a number of reasons is the stylish Citroën C1 city car, ideal for new drivers. There is plenty to love about the model’s features, but how about a very appealing extra available now at Robins & Day Newport?

One year’s free insurance That’s right, and what a starting-point it is. Eligible customers from the age of 18 can happily forget paying any insurance on their new car. Qualifying versions must be ordered and registered by September 30, so there is plenty of time to take advantage of the offer.

It applies to the most popular trim levels in the C1 range, including the recently launched Origins’ Collector’s Edition.

Ideal as a first-time car of choice The Citroën C1 was made for urban driving with a capacity to manoeuvre in tight spaces a reassuring feature, especially for motorists with little experience. First-time drivers may feel they have enough on their plate without getting stressed out by parking and driving in heavy traffic.

The Citroën C1 is kind to you on both those counts, ideal for driving in busy towns and cities. As a vehicle perfectly suited to those who have recently passed their driving test, it is well up there. And, of course, the free insurance offer is bound to help.

A hit with customers It has been a successful five years so far for the current generation Citroën C1. The 2014 launch was a prelude to the UK sale alone of 65,000 cars.

So, why is it so special? The model car is a stylish number – there’s no doubt about that – with features like:

A seven-inch touchscree­n; DAB radio; Bluetooth; MirrorScre­en® technology with Apple CarPlay™, Android Auto and MirrorLink®) as standard specificat­ion from the level 2 ‘Feel’ trim and full-length curtain airbags as standard to provide head protection for both front and rear occupants.

Customer satisfacti­on can be gauged by the fact that the Citroën C1 was given the Auto Express Driver Power City Car Bronze Award for 2019.

Even more desirable now Citroën UK’s sales director, Eurig Druce, said: “C1 is an extremely popular urban vehicle that’s packed with style, technology and safety equipment, including those allimporta­nt full-length curtain airbags. We’re delighted we can now make this attractive model even more desirable, with free insurance for retail customers from 18 years of age.

“This offer has been designed in particular to offer a helping hand to younger drivers, whose insurance costs are usually higher. By covering these costs we hope to get as many young drivers into a safer, brand-new car that they can be proud of.”
