Looks really nice, though I wonder if the 10 UK DS3RC's will need new Engines by then end of the year with #2 Piston failures

[BeefMasta]

I love the look, not a fan of the price though... Seems like quite a large increase for the exclusivity.

[Toxic]

yep and the boot space is "minimal" to say the least.

[cyclone]

I thought the boot was the same size and just the access to it sucked on the cabrio?

[Superfly Guy]

Ive heard that the UK has the biggest market share for cabrios, and only 10 are being designated. If it was £25k id order one tonight, £29k they can bore right off.

Have not looked at Biggies link but 29 really? That's 1.75 times more than I paid for my car. Fuck that.

Same price as a Golf R...

Yep. £29,305.

£7195 more than the THP cabrio with all the same extras (as listed on the Citroen configurator atm), not including the Racing engine / carbon fibre bits obv.

[Superfly Guy]

Buy a THP Cabrio, add a map and a decent exhaust, add the wheels and you are still paying £4k for some 'bits'.

£4000, that's like free wine for an entire leave rotation

Thats pretty high- like to see what engine is going to power it (Havent looked at link yet)
Will have to check who won our little sweep we had going a few month back

[ZACK]

Love it xD

[cyclone]

Same price as a Golf R...

I'll take that instead.

[Chris]

Really like the look of it. Interesting the note stating you should only use 98RON fuel...perhaps because of problems with old racing units

Even so, if I had £28k lying around I'd be tempted :P

My wife has a DSport THP 155 Cabrio and the boot IS the same size.
Yup,the access is a bit restricted,but no big deal unless you need continuous access to the boot.
Wow,I know we paid less than half the asking price of the 'Racing' for our ex demo,very low mileage car with all the bells and whistles and personally. I wouldn't ever consider paying such a high price for a bit of exclusive go-faster.
Others may feel differently though!
