      <content:encoded><![CDATA[<a href='http://www.eyefulpresentations.co.uk' target='_blank'>Eyeful Presentations</a>, the leading presentation consultancy in Europe and North America, will announce the eagerly awaited results from their recent global survey of 250 corporate presenters on their use of PowerPoint and other presentation technologies.<br />
<br />
The findings will be presented in two upcoming webinars in the UK and North America.  The 2010 survey was carried out as a follow up to Eyeful’s initial survey in 2007.  Analysis of the findings will examine just how PowerPoint and other presentation technologies are used, and in many instances misused in the business world.<br />
<br />
“We’ve seen a lot of positive changes since our initial survey back in 2007.  The phenomenon of Death by PowerPoint is recognised by businesses globally and some are making concerted efforts to address it head on,” commented Eyeful’s Managing Director Simon Morton. <br />
<br />
“That said, it would seem that there is still a lot work to be done in some areas.  This year’s survey gives us a clear indication of progress in the last three years along with the impact of new presentation technologies such as Google Presentations and Prezi.”<br />
<br />
The two webinars will be delivered on the 3rd August. Spaces are limited for the two events and interest levels following the survey are very high so the events are expected to be fully booked.<br />
<br />
“Here at <a href='http://www.eyefulpresentations.co.uk' target='_blank'>Eyeful</a>, we speak to people every day who struggle with all the elements of a successful presentation.  This will be the first time that the industry has voiced it’s opinion for three years so there’s a real buzz and anticipation” continued Morton  “There’s no doubt that the use of different presentation technologies has grown in the last 3 years.  These results give us a real indication of how this growth has shaped how we use presentations in our companies, from the traditional boardroom environment to new online and social media applications.”<br />

Between them, these priceless resources span over 100 years of the motor industry and motor sport including racing, rallying, advertising, posters, brochures, manufacturing and social history.<br />

Many of the photographs were taken by such legendary action photographers as Geoffrey Goddard, George Monkhouse and Nigel Snowden.  <br />
<br />

Bore down into the website and there are striking top-quality images covering everything from personalities, nostalgia and fashion to industry, Grand Prix and Le Mans-type sports car racing and even wartime industrial scenes. Other subject categories include the MGB, The Austin Magazine Covers, Fangio, Stirling Moss, Sir Alec Issigonis, Ringo Star, Jim Clark, the Mini-Cooper and Lotus, Design and Landmarks, Advertising, Production and Buildings and much more. <br />

  <br />
Commenting on the launch, David Weguelin, of Motorgraphs said, “This is a labour of love for all concerned, and has involved sorting through some three million images, selecting and scanning the most iconic ones for the site. We will be adding more on a regular basis, and expanding the categories while also including photographs from other libraries.” <br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[21st July 2010. Cambridge, UK: Alphadaughters.com. During the next decade an increasing number of elderly people will stop driving. Some will have their driving license revoked on medical grounds while others will realise for themselves they are no longer fit enough to drive. A white paper published this week looks at courses open to an Alpha Daughter (working women who care for ageing parents) when their father or mother can no longer drive. <br />
<br />
According to the white paper the parent’s decision to stop driving usually coincides with the worsening of a medical condition and is what first alerts the Alpha Daughter to the fact that her parents need help and can no longer lead totally independent lives. According to Peter Kruger, author of the paper; “In many cases the parent has been retired for ten or more years and has reorganised their social life around a seven day leisure week. They sometimes find it difficult to accept that the Alpha Daughter, who is still pursuing a career, cannot provide an on-demand travel service.”<br />
<br />
The paper highlights a parent’s hospital or GP appointment as the journey an Alpha Daughter finds most difficult to fit into a busy working day. According to Alphadaughters.com the management of healthcare services and transport of elderly patients are likely to converge and this will open up opportunities for IT vendors and companies who provide ehealth and online support services for Alpha Daughters who arrange both care and transport for their parents.<br />
<br />
As the Alpha Daughter often makes use of third party transport services for their parents, Alphadaughters.com carried out research into a range of on-demand and volunteer transport schemes supported by local authorities. It was found that medical related journeys accounted for over 20% of journeys made by volunteer transport providers and that the demand for all transport services for the elderly was rising at rate of 5% per annum. The paper sees a question mark over whether local authorities can maintain this growth in the face of current spending caps.<br />
<br />
Alphadaughters.com sees the possibility of the volunteer transport sector becoming self-sustaining, with respect to labour, during the next fifteen years as newly retired drivers use the revenue they earn from ex-drivers to fund their own motoring. “Older drivers will also gain from this arrangement as they no longer have the costs associated with car ownership,” says Kruger, who goes on to point out; “If this type of arrangement becomes widespread, it could have a macro economic impact as there will be a flow of wealth from the leading edge to the tail of the baby boom generation and also a conversion of assets into revenue as elderly people sell their cars.” The white paper points to opportunities for transport operators who may be able to rebrand volunteer transport schemes to make them look more like a car club or lift share scheme and less like a charity.<br />
<br />
“Car ownership means subtly different things to each generation,” says Kruger. “Most people see learning to drive and passing their test as an important milestone in their life giving them independence from their parents. They also regard their car as a status symbol or mobile advertisement of their prosperity. However the younger generation seem to find it easier to detach car ownership from car use.” The paper suggests that the attitude to car ownership amongst the current generation of baby boomers could set the tone for the debate about what older people do when their driving careers are over. According to Kruger; “Currently the fear of being forced to surrender their license is disproportionate to the likelihood of this happening to a baby boomer during the coming decade. A lot could happen during those ten years. Two things the baby boomer generation did during the sixties was to co-opt radical ideas and create consensus throughout society. If they co-opt the younger generation’s attitude to lift sharing and car clubs, we could see a radical shift in attitudes to car ownership.” Kruger believes that such a shift would have a significant impact on the motor industry with a precipitous drop in sales after 2020.<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Demand for the new Peugeot RCZ  <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/vehicles/peugeot-car-range/peugeot-rcz/' target='_blank'>Sports Coupé</a> has really taken off with orders for the first five weeks already exceeding over half the 2010 production allocation.  Many orders include personalisation options that are a key part of the RCZ specification and available to configure online at <a title='Goes&nbsp;to&nbsp;website&nbsp;of:&nbsp;www.peugeot.co.uk' href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk' target='_blank'>www.peugeot.co.uk</a> or on the iPhone app.  The range availability is also expanding with more petrol-powered versions: a THP 156 automatic and the more powerful THP 200 models, in both Sport and GT trim levels, can now be ordered for delivery. <br />
<br />
Following a nationwide Peugeot <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/vehicles/peugeot-car-range/peugeot-rcz/' target='_blank'>RCZ</a> ‘It Chooses You’ Facebook competition, building on from the TV campaign, the chosen winner, Matthew Stollery from Gwent, South Wales, was at the Goodwood Festival of Speed last weekend to collect the keys from UK Managing Director Jon Goodman.  The 31 year old fireman was naturally delighted; “I’m so happy. I still can’t believe I have won this sleek, sexy, amazing car!” said Stollery. “Although I enter competitions regularly I have never won anything before so I am really looking forward to driving back to Wales in it and showing it off to my friends and colleagues at the South Wales Fire and Rescue Service.”<br />
<br />
Commenting on <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/vehicles/peugeot-car-range/peugeot-rcz/' target='_blank'>RCZ</a>, Jon Goodman, said: “Wow, what a month for the newly launched Peugeot RCZ.  It’s already a multi-award winner and was rapturously received at launches up and down the country, and across the world.  Demand for RCZ has also been unprecedented, so the new models will be a welcome extension to the range.  Matthew was certainly ‘the chosen one’ in our <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/vehicles/peugeot-car-range/peugeot-rcz/' target='_blank'>RCZ</a> Facebook ‘It Chooses You’ campaign, so I imagine he drove off to Wales with a grin as wide as the Severn Bridge!” <br />
<br />
The hotly anticipated THP 200 version, fitted with a six-speed manual gearbox, combines performance, efficiency and a desirable, stylish appearance characterised by its distinctive double-bubble roof.  The front suspension has larger brakes and hubs with a strengthened lower bracing bar to enhance the handling and sure-footed ride.  THP 200 models are also equipped with the Sports Kit as standard, that includes a small diameter steering wheel and a short, quick-throw gear lever. <br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Innovators unite to inspire the next generation of engineers and scientists<br />
<br />
Blackburn, UK, 7 July, 2010 – Educational technology provider, Promethean, which floated in March this year, has become the official interactive education technology partner of BLOODHOUND SSC (Supersonic Car) Project.  <br />
<br />
BLOODHOUND is an iconic engineering project to design and build the first supersonic car capable of achieving 1,000 mph and smash the World Land Speed Record. The three year project is led by Richard Noble OBE and Wing Commander Andy Green OBE who set the current record of 763mph (1228kmh) in October 1997. <br />
<br />
Promethean will work with the BLOODHOUND SSC team to support its international education programme and engage young people in the science that underpins this challenge. Supported by an array of global technology companies and universities, a key objective for BLOODHOUND is to inspire young people to pursue Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) education and careers. <br />
<br />
A remarkable feature of this project is that it will provide open access to its science and engineering research data and design iterations involved in the development of the BLOODHOUND SSC. Ultimately this will be the catalyst for a raft of cutting-edge research in fields such as: aerodynamics, materials technology, composite manufacturing and sustainable high-tech engineering. <br />
<br />
“In the 1960s, the goal of putting a man on the moon inspired an entire generation to take interest in STEM. We hope BLOODHOUND will have the same ‘Apollo Effect’ for this generation,” says Jim Wynn, Chief Education Officer at Promethean.<br />
<br />
Teachers, students and anyone with an interest will be able to keep up-to-date with the project and access a wealth of new curriculum-based interactive STEM educational resources on <a title='Goes&nbsp;to&nbsp;website&nbsp;of:&nbsp;www.PrometheanPlanet.com/Bloodhound' href='http://www.PrometheanPlanet.com/Bloodhound' target='_blank'>www.PrometheanPlanet.com/Bloodhound</a>. <br />
<br />
Promethean will be installing its ActivClassroom technology in BLOODHOUND’s forthcoming education centres, creating the ‘classroom of the future’ and will be equipping BLOODHOUND’s education ambassadors with relevant software and resources for use in schools. <br />
<br />
Jim Wynn continues: “It is a privilege to be involved in this iconic project.  As the world’s commercial, environmental and energy challenges become ever more pressing, the need to develop real scientific talent in the next generation has never been more apparent. Through our education programmes and materials, we want to reach out to young students worldwide and encourage them to take up education and careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.”<br />
<br />
Richard Noble OBE, BLOODHOUND Project Director and former World Land Speed Record holder, confirmed: “There is a natural affinity between Promethean and BLOODHOUND’s goals of pushing the boundaries of human achievement through inspiring STEM education. We are therefore delighted to have Promethean join our growing portfolio of partners and sponsors, and look forward to the expertise they can lend in bringing educational resources to life through classroom technologies that have a real resonance with teachers and young people.”<br />
<br />
Over 3,500 primary and secondary schools, 200 further education colleges and 40 higher education institutions are already signed up to the programme and are using BLOODHOUND resources to enthuse young people in STEM subjects. <br />

Note to editors:<br />
<br />
STEM subjects were designated as strategically important to the national interest in 2005, following a review by the Higher Education Funding Council of England (HEFCE).‘ Following this, a £350 million programme was implemented to support strategically important subjects in deemed vulnerable due to declining student demand. Indicators suggest that the programme is having some effect; since 2005-06, the number of people studying physics, chemistry and maths at undergraduate level has risen by 6.8 per cent to 47,269 . Notwithstanding this, STEM subjects remain on the list of strategically important vulnerable subjects and it is deemed a national priority to support interest in and take-up of these subjects.<br />

About Bloodhound<br />
<br />
1. Bloodhound team members have held the World Land Speed Record for the past 26 years but aims to become the first in the world to attain a land speed of 1,000mph in 2012. Achieving this feat will involve a 31% increase in speed on the current world record of 763mph, achieved in 1997 with the first land vehicle (ThrustSSC) to break the Sound Barrier – driven by Andy Green OBE.<br />
<br />
2. The BLOODHOUND Project is the engineering adventure for the 21st century, designed to inspire young engineers and scientists  by developing a supersonic car capable of achieving 1,000mph and setting a historic new World Land Speed Record. <br />
<br />
Behind this iconic achievement lies the key objective of inspiring the next generation to pursue careers in science, engineering, technology and maths – by demonstrating how they can be harnessed to achieve the seemingly impossible, such as the BLOODHOUND SSC 1,000mph land speed record. Because the FIA World Land Speed Record rules are minimal, the challenger cars are bespoke and tend to be very different. It therefore means the BLOODHOUND SSC technology and research technology used is unlikely to be of value to a competing team and that there is no need for secrecy. Designs and technology are therefore shared on the web as they are developed. This is unique: the defence, motor race and space industries are unable to share their technology in this way.<br />
<br />
BLOODHOUND SSC (Supersonic Car) has been designed to achieve speeds of up to 1,050mph and being jet and rocket powered has 133,000ehp (equivalent to 180 Formula One cars). Having completed the aerodynamic design, the project is entering the detail design and car build phase of the programme which will lead to roll-out towards the end of 2011, UK runway trials in early 2012 and finally, high speed trials on Hakskeen Pan South Africa later that year.

3. Richard Noble OBE, was the holder of the World Land Speed record between 1983 and 1997, and was the project director of ThrustSSC, the vehicle which holds the current land speed record, set at Black Rock Desert, Nevada in 1997.<br />
<br />
The 35,000hp Thrust2 car raised the record to 633.468mph (1019km/h). ThrustSSC, the world’s first supersonic car was driven by Andy Green OBE, breaking Noble’s record and achieving the first supersonic record at 763.035mph (1221km/h)/Mach 1.02.<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[The UK’s leading fuel card reseller, The Fuelcard Company, has launched a national petition among commercial vehicle drivers calling for ministers to lower fuel tax and support the transport industry.  <br />
<br />
The campaign entitled ‘Don’t Fleece Our Fleet’ will be taken across the UK in a nation-wide tour of the country’s biggest truck-stops to raise awareness and generate support for the fleet industry which has seen fuel duty increases totalling 15 percent during the recession, with further tax hikes on the way totalling around 5 percent.<br />
<br />
UK diesel duty is by far the highest in the EU, at 57.19 pence a litre, and more than double what some of our EU competitors pay. To raise awareness of the petition The Fuelcard Company will embark on a 6 week tour of the country with an enormous 14ft American BBQ serving burgers to the nation’s beleaguered truck drivers.<br />
 <br />
The petition will call on the Government to lower fuel tax, or freeze it at its current level, before the UK fleet industry suffers irreparable damage.<br />
<br />
Jakes de Kock, Marketing Director of The Fuelcard Company said: “The fleet industry is the backbone of the UK economy, providing a vital logistical service to businesses and organisations across the country and yet is left perpetually struggling to stay afloat thanks to these apparently never-ending hikes in fuel duty.<br />
<br />
“We are calling on the Government to support the UK fleet industry which has suffered in the past few years with repeated fuel tax hikes leaving many companies fighting for survival. The latest measures announced in the emergency budget, including the increase in VAT and the change to capital allowances, will only serve to weaken the industry further.” <br />
<br />
The Fuelcard Company’s new petition is being supported by the Road Haulage Association (RHA) which has consistently challenged fuel tax hikes in the UK. RHA Chief Executive Geoff Dunning commented: “We have worked closely with our members to support the causes that affect their every day business, with the issue of fuel duty a key issue. <br />
<br />
“The UK’s record high level of diesel duty doesn’t just hit British hauliers. It also hits UK competitiveness and raises the price of everything we buy in the shops.<br />
<br />
“The RHA fully supports The Fuelcard Company in its bid to raise awareness of such a vitally important issue to our members.” <br />
<br />
Recent figures revealed by the Scottish National Party threw a sharp spotlight on just how heavily taxed fuel is in the UK - before tax, UK diesel is the second cheapest in Europe; after tax it is the most expensive. <br />
<br />
De Kock continued: “Motorists suffer as well, of course. The cost of diesel at filling stations currently averages 120.9p/litre – and 75 percent of that is taxes. That will increase further still when VAT rises from 17.5 percent to 20 percent in January. When will the Government begin to recognise that fuel is not a luxury for many people in this country but a daily necessity?” <br />
 <br />
“But the burden falls mainly on our hauliers, who provide a vital service, transporting essential goods across the country and often working unsocial hours which take them away from their families. In addition to raising awareness of the campaign, the BBQ tour is about recognising and thanking our hauliers for their contribution to the UK economy.”<br />
<br />
The tour will begin on 8th July at Waterfront Services Truckstop in Felixstowe before continuing around the country.  <br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[In 2009 Peugeot took the ‘double’ at the Le Mans 24 Hours. In 2010 Peugeot was up against a redoubtable adversary. The decider, however, will be played out next year, promised Olivier Quesnel, Director of Peugeot Sport.<br />
<br />
Buoyed up by their four consecutive ‘doubles’ and the work undertaken over the last year, Team Peugeot Total arrived relaxed, ready and determined to take up the challenge of the 2010 Le Mans 24 Hours. <br />
<br />
During qualifying the superior performance of the Peugeot 908 HDi FAP carried it to its fourth pole position in a row. In total Peugeot took the first four places on the starting grid (three works’ cars and an Oreca Peugeot). <br />
<br />
On Saturday at 3 o’clock, when the race started, the 908s, headed by the No. 3 car, led for the first three hours. Unfortunately just before the three and a half hour point, a broken monocoque suspension mounting point eliminated the car of Sébastien Bourdais, Pedro Lamy and Simon Pagenaud.<br />
<br />
The three remaining Peugeots then proceeded to continue to lead the race until nightfall when the No. 1 car of Anthony Davidson, Marc Gené and Alexander Wurz had to pit for the replacement of the starter motor-alternator-management system. This put the No. 2 car of Nicolas Minassian, Franck Montagny and Stéphane Sarrazin into the lead which they comfortably held. Then early on Sunday morning an engine issue developed putting them out of the race.<br />
<br />
Team Peugeot Total then focused all their attention and hopes on to the No. 1 car, but two hours before the finish of the race the last factory Peugeot, which had been making rapid progress through the field and was pulling in the leaders, also went out with a broken engine. <br />
<br />
Finally, the Peugeot Oreca retired for the same reason during the last hour of the race, after having posted the fastest race lap time. “Since its debut, the <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/about-peugeot/news/april-june/peugeot-908-unstoppable/' target='_blank'>908</a> HDi FAP has never before had such engine problems,” declares Bruno Famin, Technical Director of Peugeot Sport.<br />
<br />
For Olivier Quesnel, Director of Peugeot Sport: “We started at a quick pace in the face of a very strong adversary. We were faster than them, but we weren’t as reliable. What counts is the final victory, not the top speed. We have had four consecutive ‘doubles’, and you know that can’t go on forever. Unfortunately our luck turned here. But we did everything we had to, to win.<br />
<br />
We will analyse what went wrong. We have the right to be disappointed, but we will get to work, to come back even stronger in 2011. We did what we could, but we were beaten. Peugeot have human values, our continued presence doesn’t depend on sporting results. We have the support of all the major decision makers to push as hard as possible. We showed daring and we showed our values. It is a huge disappointment but we have an easy conscience.<br />
Now we must make sure it doesn’t happen again. We lost the return match today, but we will play the decider next year. <br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Peugeot, a sponsor of the prestigious Goodwood Festival of Speed, is planning to use the event, which runs from 1st to 4th July, to celebrate its 200 years of brand evolution with a celebration of its past, present and future with an exhibition on its show stand to bring to life its latest ‘Motion & Emotion’ brand signature. <br />
Participation in the innovative ‘Mobile Motor Show’ on Thursday,1st July will see the new Peugeot <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/vehicles/peugeot-car-range/peugeot-rcz/' target='_blank'>RCZ Sports Coupé</a> demonstrated to potential customers up the hill and around the roads of Goodwood.  During the Festival weekend, key Peugeot cars will be driven on the hill climb and rally stages, including the IRC rally winning 207 S2000 in the capable hands of 2009 Champion Kris Meeke. <br />
<br />
The iconic French brand has a large stand to showcase its celebration brand style.  Complemented by the products of its past, the automotive displays include the Peugeot 302 Darl’mat – known as the ‘Sochaux Rocket’ – which took three top ten places at Le Mans in 1937.  Another key exhibit is the iconic 402 Eclipse (the first car with a metal folding roof and a forebear of today’s popular 308 & 207     CC - Coupé Cabriolet), and the 205 T16,  another icon of the brand that completely dominated the World Rally Championships of the 1980s. <br />
<br />
The present vehicles on display include the new award-winning <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/vehicles/peugeot-car-range/peugeot-rcz/' target='_blank'>RCZ Sports Coupé</a> that is characterised by its double-bubble roof – a legacy of the Le Mans 908 race car that is also on display, complemented in success with Kris Meeke’s rally winning 207 S2000.  The RCZ Nurburgring race car is also displayed, having won its class in the recent 1000km endurance race. <br />
<br />
The future is also clearly in sight with a host of revolutionary new products for tomorrow.  Displayed in the UK for the first time is the Hybrid 3 Evolution – a three-wheel scooter concept with hybrid technology, the concept <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/vehicles/peugeot-car-range/peugeot-rcz/' target='_blank'>RCZ</a> HYbrid4 and production-ready 3008 Crossover with HYbrid4 technology – which will be the first diesel-hybrid on sale in the UK from mid-2010 and shown in cutaway to illustrate its features.  The Peugeot i0n is also displayed - a new all-electric car also on sale in 2010. <br />
<br />
Making its UK debut is the stunning SR1 sports roadster concept – the design manifesto of the brand going forward - and complemented with another fascinating concept the BB1 – a four-seater, 2.5-metre electric vehicle that has been confirmed for production consideration. <br />
<br />
Peugeot Managing Director, Jon Goodman comments; “At the Goodwood Festival of Speed, in the company of considerable motoring enthusiasm, be it from the attending public, the talented drivers or the unique gathering of automotive vehicles, it is significant that Peugeot - a brand with such wide appeal - is celebrating 200 years of considerable innovation, endurance and style.” <br />
<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[-	26 models to choose from which qualify for Zero VED<br />
-	Low CO2 models available in hatchback, SW <br />
-	Models available from £11,895.00 on-the-road<br />
-	All models ordered in June also come with a free Nokia 5230 smart phone with Satellite Navigation and in-car mounting kit<br />
<br />
Peugeot’s popular <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/vehicles/peugeot-car-range/peugeot-207-3door-hatchback/' target='_blank'>207</a> range is the ideal choice for cost-conscious buyers with its low running costs and a range of models which attract no vehicle excise duty.<br />
<br />
With ever increasing awareness on the overall costs of owning a car, it is more important than ever that more than the purchase cost of the car is used to decide on the most suitable vehicle.<br />
With vehicle excise duty based on the CO2 emissions of the car, choosing a low CO2 emitting vehicle can save not only money but also fuel costs and reduce the trips to the fuel station.  <br />
Some manufacturers, however, limit the choice of low CO2 vehicles to just a single model or a small range. Therefore, customers have to compromise if they want to choose a low CO2 vehicle as their main priority.<br />
<br />
With the Peugeot 207, potential customers have a choice of 26 different low CO2 models to choose from. <br />
<br />
For customers looking for a small fuel efficient hatchback, they can choose from the 99g Économique in both three-door and five-door versions, the 207 S with standard fitment of air-conditioning, the comprehensively equipped 207 Sport or the 207 Millesim special edition. All the models qualify for zero vehicle excise duty and will use a gallon of fuel on average to cover 64 miles (or 74 miles in the case of the Économique). Servicing costs are also low as the vehicles only need servicing every 12,500 miles or two years.<br />
If more load carrying capacity is required then the <a href='http://www.peugeot.co.uk/vehicles/peugeot-car-range/peugeot-207-sw/' target='_blank'>207 SW</a> is the ideal choice. With its maximum load capacity of 1258 litres, it will accommodate a family’s luggage when going on holiday, the occasional movement of large single items or to transport pets and sporting equipment. <br />
<br />
The fuel efficient nature of the available engine options mean the extra space and versatility does not have to penalise the owner with regards to vehicle excise duty or running costs. Six low CO2 models are available in the 207 SW range from the 207 SW S HDi 90 with air-conditioning, the special edition Millesim HDi 90 with its extra standard equipment, the well equipped 207 SW Sport HDi 90 or HDi 112 and the 207 SW Outdoor HDi 90 or HDi 112. All have zero vehicle excise duty, 12,500 miles or 2 year servicing and will sip a gallon of fuel on average every 61 miles.<br />
<br />
For lovers of “wind-in-your-hair” driving, the Peugeot 207 CC is available in two low CO2 versions -the 207 Sport HDi 112 and the GT HDi 112. Sharing similar engines to the hatchback and SW models, these models will ensure open top driving in the town or country will not have to cost the earth. With an average fuel consumption of 57 miles per gallon and the same servicing and vehicle excise duty as the hatchback and SW, they won’t break the bank to own, either.<br />
<br />
Efficiency, whether in driving dynamics or engine efficiency, has always been a strength of the Peugeot 207 and now, with 26 low CO2 models to choose from, there is no need to compromise to save money and help protect the environment.<br />
<br />
Any of the low CO2 207 models registered in June also come with a free Nokia 5230 smart phone with inbuilt satellite navigation with free future updates and an in-car mounting kit; therefore, ensuring the most efficient route to a destination and helping to reduce further running costs. <br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Storagemaker, the UK’s leading <a href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk/' target='_blank'>storage solutions</a> designer and manufacturer, is delighted to announce the launch of their latest garage storage kits on their new look website. Aimed at the individual customer rather than just corporate contacts, the new storage solutions offer an innovative, practical and good-looking alternative to traditional storage solutions.<br />
<br />
The <a href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk/garage-storage-kits-c-5.html' target='_blank'>garage storage kits</a> contain everything that the customer needs to tidy up everything from errant hose pipes right through to tools, cans and jars. “The basic idea is simplicity itself,” explains Stephen Richards, Online Manager of Storagemaker. “The kits come with everything you need to create your own individual garage storage solutions. By simply putting up the slatwalls and then inserting the wire hooks, multi-purpose grab hooks and storage baskets, the customer can utilise the wall space within a garage so that everything is clearly visible and organised to their specifications,” he adds.<br />
<br />
A place for everything and everything in its place…<br />
<br />
The <a href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk/garage-storage-kits-c-5.html' target='_blank'>garage storage kits</a> come in a range of sizes to suit any storage solution requirement. The ‘starter’ pack contains four, two-metre long slatwall sections and a selection of multi-purpose hooks and a basket for smaller spaces. The kits then go up in size to the largest kit, which contains 12 slatwall panels and consists of 79 pieces for larger storage areas. “With these garage storage kits, you can finally find a place for everything and put everything in its place,” explains Stephen. “The kits are so simple to use and install that you could transform a cluttered garage space into a well-organised and smart-looking area in an afternoon,” he adds.<br />
<br />
Storagemaker have been one of the UK’s leading <a href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk/' target='_blank'>storage solution</a> providers for over 15 years, and their ethos is simple solutions, innovative design and practical application. “It doesn’t matter what you want to use your storage solution for, whether it’s tidying up your gardening equipment or organising your tools. The multi-purpose hooks are designed to work for any application, and their simple, clean and elegant lines add a touch of professionalism to any garage space,” explains Stephen. “We have been providing these kits to some of the largest new build organisations for over 10 years. So we thought it was time that the public, who may be drowning under a sea of clutter in their garages, had the opportunity to utilise the very latest in storage solutions for themselves. The garage storage kits offer the ideal opportunity to make what is often a wasted space into an area of the home that can be used for more than just parking the car or storing odds and ends,” he adds.<br />
<br />
Garage storage organisation kits are available online at the company’s website at <a title='Goes&nbsp;to&nbsp;website&nbsp;of:&nbsp;www.storagemaker.co.uk' href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk' target='_blank'>www.storagemaker.co.uk</a>, with secure, online payment facilities and next day delivery options to mainland destinations.<br />

      <content:encoded><![CDATA[Storagemaker, the UK’s leading home <a href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk/' target='_blank'>storage solution</a> provider, is delighted to announce the launch of their new look website. The website has been designed to showcase the organisation’s unique collection of storage solutions and is an easy to use, easy to navigate site filled with useful information and great products.<br />
<br />
"Storagemaker" PB National Products Ltd has been established since 1995 as a volume manufacturer, supplier and installer of optional extra products to the new house building sector. The company has grown rapidly and now includes seven of the top ten house builders nationally as valued clients.<br />
<br />
“Our reputation has been built on being the most cost-effective supplier of storage solutions for the new build market,” explains Stephen Richards, Online Manager of Storagemaker. “With the new website, we’re opening up a whole new marketplace, with individual customers able to incorporate some of our most innovative and effective solutions into their own homes. It’s a great step forward for us and a very exciting time for the entire team,” he adds.<br />
<br />
Award winning design<br />
<br />
Storagemaker has built an enviable reputation for innovation and design over the last 15 years, coming up with elegantly simple but highly effective storage answers for the most knotty of problems. Their unique <a href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk/garage-storage-kits-c-5.html' target='_blank'>garage storage</a> system uses foamed PVCU extrusions and formed, painted carbon steel accessories, achieving both form and function in one simple solution. “It’s not just about effective storage. It’s about making sure it looks right too. So we place as much emphasis on design aesthetics as we do on functionality,” explains Stephen.<br />
<br />
The new website at <a title='Goes&nbsp;to&nbsp;website&nbsp;of:&nbsp;www.storagemaker.co.uk' href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk' target='_blank'>www.storagemaker.co.uk</a> guides visitors around the selection of their top products with a rolling panel that visitors can click on to take them straight to the details of their selected product. Safe and secure online shopping facilities and the option of a next day delivery service means that customers can get their goods quickly and easily.<br />
<br />
“We thought very carefully about how to construct the new website and we realised that our customers want three things. They want to know what we sell, they want to know how much it is and they want to know when they can expect it to be delivered. Like many of our products, the answers are simple but effective and we think that the new website is very much in keeping with our company’s ethos of service, reliability and innovation,” says Stephen.<br />
<br />
Detailing Storagemaker’s innovative range of garage <a href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk/' target='_blank'>storage solutions</a>, storage accessories and heavy duty <a href='http://www.storagemaker.co.uk/garage-storage-kits-c-5.html' target='_blank'>garage storage kits</a>, the new website is designed to encourage domestic customers to take a fresh look at how they utilise their available space to the best advantage. "We’re always happy to chat to customers about their requirements, and if they don’t see what they’re looking for, talk to us. We may have an alternative solution that works even better!” concludes Stephen. <br />
