Peugeot has launched a new initiative designed to ensure owners of its cars over three years old or more keep returning to its dealers for servicing.

The manufacturer claims shopping around for aftersales is 'false economy'. The new initiative, 3-Plus, offers three levels of service, starting at £69.99. Each service includes an engine oil and oil filter change and checks on tyres, brakes and lighting. Fluids are topped up and road test carried out.

Key elements of the package are timed appointments and the option of while-you-wait servicing.
