possible replacement car?

[jc_boc]

So i was there at Goodwood, milling around taking pics and then I spotted this..........

DS3 R - this car is hand built by Citroens rally department and only 200 are made for the UK market with only 60 left. It also comes in white by the way with CF greay where all the orange is on this one. So a base 1.6T DS3 sport is taken by them, replace the cylinder head, performance exhaust system, performance brake upgarde, ECU remap and a few other little touches inside including what must be the most comfy bucket seats i have ever sat in.

207PS which aint too bad and nice options as standard. The price tag for this limited edition race spec car..............................

£23 000.00!!!!!!! I must admit, i was VERY tempted and so was the missus!

Love it!

Those seats look very comfy, those wheels are just

very nice.

 

[jc_boc]

Tell me about it! i would take this over the white one just for pure in your face value hahahaha

 

[phantombantam]

Looks awesome that!

 

[cupra-ads]

i saw these aswell! cheap to insure but alot of money!!

I think the DS3 is the only other similar car that looks as good as the Ibiza atm and that one is stunning, think i'd prefer it in the black and orange over the white too.

Love the look of those seats and is that a proper old-fashioned clunk-free gearbox I see there? haha

 

[jc_boc]

Yeah, the same as my boc to insure and tax. i was well impressed tbh but agree, the price scares me but I think the exclusivity will mean it retains its value relatively well.

one word people............ FRENCH

 

[jc_boc]

i don't car mate, that car is the SHIZ!!!!! Not to mention, the DS3 is getting amazing reviews. Did i also mention it has switchable ESP so you can switch it off completely when you wanna have some fun..........

I would happily trade my boc in for that it's absolutely beautiful but I still love the boc

 

[jc_boc]

By the way, that is REAL carbon fibre on this car too not fafe stuff, seriously, you need to see this car in the flesh to appreciate it.

[jc_boc]

[Jhouse_101]

great looking but £23k? way to much for a citroen. a mate of mine who has a ds3 and uses a ds3 forum reckons someone who has a racing has had it mapped and i think the power went from 207 to 240-250...

So you thought the reliability & build quality of SEAT was not ace, so you're off to Citroen?

Your temptation to get it will go up even more when you see it on Top Gear then lol.

DSG is something that takes more than that for me to give it up. DS3 not my thing but to each their own.

That is some serious power gains there.
