One of the worthiest fast Peugeots doesn't have a GTI badge - and isn't a hatchback
Nobody expected too much when Peugeot confirmed an RCZ R back in 2013. The standard car had always seemed more about showroom style more than driving substance, and at that point Peugeot hadn't made a great car in yonks. This was pre-308 GTI, remember, and before Peugeot Sport got their hands on the 208 GTI. 'R' was a badge never before seen on a Peugeot, and, as it transpired, one never to return, either.
The impression of a more serious prospect was borne out on the road, the RCZ R righting all manner of wrongs. Here was a Peugeot coupe that was exciting and involving to drive, at last, fizzing with feel and no little pace. There was nothing to adjust and not even an automatic option, just a focused chassis, six-speed manual and frantic four-cylinder to provide the thrills.
