I was so excited to see another RCZ on the road – it pulled out right in front of us. I wanted to shout and wave to let them know that I too had one (albeit for only seven wonderful days) but they ignored me. I felt as if we should have had an immediate bond – the only other time I’ve seem one was at its launch last year.

To me, this only makes the car more desirable. As it is, every time I get out of it, I fall in love all over again. It still shocks me as to just how beautiful it is.

So when I finally did draw up alongside the RCZ with my ready smile, all I got was a cold glare! Was it the two eager faces of my kids in the rear, or the fact that my RCZ was even more stunning than his with our amber red paintwork, contrasting silver aluminum roof arches, black 19” alloys with black-painted brake calipers and ’11′ registration plate?

Some people are just so shallow! Unlike me, of course.

So here we have a stunning car, one of the most beautiful cars on the road today I think. It does have a masculine yet feline look to it, but as I wear the trousers in our family then it’s eminently suited to me.
This is a sports car that is so easy to live with, not only due to the practical boot space or the fact that up front is a regular Peugeot engine with decent CO2 emissions and fuel consumption, but also because the performance it offers is enough to bring a smile to your face without scaring the living daylights out of you! It takes corners briskly and excitingly, hugs the road and zooms along effortlessly so certainly feels the part as well as looking it!
So, for me, being so shallow, having a car that turns heads, performs well and looks exceedingly good in front of my house ticks all of my alter-ego boxes (having forgotten the need for a people-carrier at my stage in life). I have found my perfect car. You can get kids in the rear should you choose to and mine didn’t complain even after our mini weekend tour of the south coast. They were kept amused by their vertical view through the double-bubble glass roof and I was kept happy by the sheer thrill of driving such a gorgeous car and all for the princely sum of £25,395 (ours has some options such as Satnav and those wheels, but you can buy an RCZ for £21,245)!
Mid life crisis – look no further…
