The most powerful and focused Peugeot ever made is, not surprisingly, also sexy. We're talking about the RCZ R coupe, offering all of the sexy French flavors with plenty of spicy hot pepper sauce on top.
Revealed earlier this year and tested to new extreme at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, the RCZ R will finally be available to buy in Britain, going on sale on the 18th of November. Before we go into pricing details, let's just take a quick look at what's on offer.

The RCZ R has 70 PS more than the most powerful RCZ model for a grand total of 270PS, available from a completely re-engineered 1.6-liter THP turbo engine. The car is also fitted with a limited slip differential and sports suspension with 10mm lower ground clearance.

The RCZ R will be priced at £31,995, which is quite a lot of money for a Peugeot. If you want real performance, for the exact same money, you can have the 300 PS VW Golf R with five doors and a slick DSG gearbox. But then you'll be missing out on all the French styling.
