Peugeot RCZ Powers Beyond 'Used Car Price Predictions'

PARIS – November 12, 2010: At its inaugural appearance on the used car auction circuit, Peugeot’s award-winning RCZ sports coupé has eased past predicted used prices to achieve an average of 92% of MRRP.

Fifteen used RCZs with mileages typically at around 8,000 miles were placed at a closed auction at Bruntingthorpe Proving Ground, with over 70 dealers taking part.

The prices achieved at the auction outperformed an already strong set of valuations by CAP with an aggregate 103 per cent of CAP Clean, underlining the strong pull of the RCZs combination of driveability, quality and style.

Despite it being Autumn, a challenging time for used car auctions, and the presence of 170 other sought-after vehicles, all the RCZs sold, demonstrating huge confidence in both the car and the Peugeot Marque.

The star car was a GT THP 200 in Mercury Grey with 6,000 miles on the clock, which made an impressive £23,500; 111% of CAP, 97% of MRRP.
