For instance, who actually wants the new 3008? That oddly proportioned SUV/People Mover thing. The Citroen equivalent looks so much better and is exactly the same underneath so why would you buy the Peugeot? Now on the other hand, who wants a 308 RC Z? Other than the C4 and the GT, that's the first French car that I have actually wanted in about twenty years! It looks fantastic, good enough to throw a punch at the TT I think. And the Peugeot badge isn't so down market that it couldn't. I love their cars but the PSA group don't seem to understand desirability. Peugeot need to release the 308 RC Z and Citroen need to release the GT concept, exactly as it was as a concept, before they become boring. They could claw back some much needed dignity if they released those fantastically desirable cars.
