Is
there a fee for EXTRA DRIVERS? |
Additional drivers
are free - with some restrictions. The car can be driven,
fully
insured, by immediate family members (spouse & children),
even if the lessee is
not in the car. If anyone else (non resident of the E.U.) drives
the car, the lessee
must be in the vehicle for the insurance to remain in effect. |

insurances, with
ZERO DEDUCTIBLE:

-Theft and/or Fire of the Vehicle
-Broken windows

Peugeot Open Europe insurance coverage is superior to that
of virtually any
rental - there are no deductibles, and no credit card imprints
are taken by
Peugeot against the car for damage. In other words, there
are no surprises on
your credit card statement upon returning from vacation.
