Why doesn't my car exist on car insurance website menus?

Every year I try and buy my car insurance online. Problem is, when it comes to the specifics of my car it never appears on their drop-down list. Who creates this information, and how can I have my cars details added to it? I have a 2005 Peugeot 206 HDI SE 3-door 1997cc diesel.

Go to a decent broker. Direct insurers' databases are limited and do have gaps to make them easy to use.
