Motorists who buy Peugeot car spares to ensure their vehicle maintains its good green credentials may not be surprised to hear the Environment Agency has opted to make use of some of the manufacturer’s models.

The company’s 107 was the best-selling sub-111 g/km auto in the UK last year, while the firm had three entries in the sub-121 g/km top ten.

Peugeot was also placed first in the sub-131 g/km class.

The Environment Agency has chosen to supply its employees with 207 and 308 models.

According to the manufacturer, this is probably down to the fact the vehicles have minimal impact on the planet and excellent specification levels.

It stated: "Who better than the Environment Agency to appreciate the virtues of low-CO2 cars for its fleet."

Meanwhile, motorists with any make and model of auto may find they can reduce their carbon footprint by replacing worn parts with car spares bought online in order to ensure their vehicles are running as efficiently as possible.

Motorists who try and ensure their vehicle is running as efficiently as possible by replacing worn car parts may be impressed with the achievement of two Peugeot drivers.

Known as the fuel fugitives, the individuals have journeyed around the UK in a 308 SE HDi 110 trying to keep diesel consumption to a minimum.

Guinness World Records has verified the motorists have achieved average economy of 126.8 mpg.

Peugeot admitted to being a little surprised by the feat, especially as the 308 is not the most efficient car it produces.

Fleet sales director Phil Robson commented: "We’ve been telling customers that our low-CO2 … vehicles are … very economical and fuel efficient, but I have to say even I am very impressed by this achievement."

On less than three tanks of diesel, the couple covered over 3,700 miles.

Meanwhile, motorists who own one of the manufacturer’s models may find they can improve their auto’s efficiency by replacing worn parts with Peugeot spares bought online.

Motorists who are interested in the internal workings of their vehicle and are always looking for the best car parts available may be impressed with Peugeot’s latest achievement.

The manufacturer has scooped an International Engine of the Year accolade.

Clinching the title in the 1.4 to 1.8-litre class, the company’s winning product was the 1.6-litre, four-cylinder direct injection turbo petrol unit.

Peugeot explained the engine has cut emissions and improved fuel efficiency by about ten per cent, compared with its predecessor.

Designed in collaboration with BMW, the unit was first introduced on the 207 model in 2007.

The triumphant manufacturer revealed it plans to equip 75 per cent of its cars with 1.4 to 1.6-litre engines by 2010.
