He hasnt really spent 250k though, by the time he trades his old cars in with them its probably half of that figure or less, still too much to spend on peugeots though!

Is it though? Chap down the road from me changes his car every 2 years and buys a new BMW each time. Say he's had 23, he's probably spent double, triple that amount? What's the difference?

Obviously the chap is happy and has the money so no real issues.

£250 in 20 years?

Good to see my tax going somewhere worthwhile.

Ok, a free bar of chocolate* to the first person who manages to 'win' an weekend with a RCZ simply by walking in to a Pug dealer and expressing an interest in buying one.

• Please note - no free chocolate will actually be provided. But you will have a weekend with an RCZ...

What a nutcase.

On a similar note, a chap who lived over the road from us had a thing for Ford Escorts, he go and buy himself a brand new one every few months.

It's not your tax, it's his income.

[iva cosworth]

A lot of the people posting here have not read even the start of the article

Yes he has bought 23 cars .

Some of them have been for his wife and also cars bought for 2 kids.

So Mr Rackley has not changed HIS car 23 times in 22 years

Still utterly bonkers though

Really nice story that. Im glad to see Peugeot take a leading position in customer aftercare, after all when you buy a car from a quality manufacturer you should expect quality service. When i sell my BMW M5 i think i'll visit my local Peugeot dealer off the back of this press release, printed copy in hand. Its been a long time since ive seen such generosity.

Which comes straight from my tax.
So it's my tax.

And do you think this guy will get anything for 3,000 000 miles in a P1800?

Yes, and it pays for a service you need, I'E to live a society were some big hairy bloke can't come round to your house, throw your skinny arse out and shut the door in your face, and then live there happily until and even bigger and more hairy bloke does the same to him etc etc

It might come from your tax, but its his money, that he has earned, you only get to earn your money because you live in a lawful society which he is paid to enforce the rules of

that dealer is hoping the guy will buy the rcz after a weekends drive. may be £275k in 20years.
he probably spent £500k if he serviced those peugeots there as well.

Hang on in there and in 2 years you'll get a mouse mat and a small wind up torch/radio combo that fits on your key chain.

Why we want to waste his money on the best car Peugeot have made in years? He's got himself a 'beautiful' 508. Clearly an aspirational kind of guy.

[Teppic]

Bloody hell! I know him!

Good bloke. His wife used to be my next door neighbour before she married him.

You really believe that?

With constant tampering to the law the police are no longer to protect and serve, and the justice system - well that's a joke isn't it?! Seems to be tailor made to help criminals get away with st.

Unless the criminal passes a camera and is the legal owner. Then he's screwed.

[SonnyM]

I hope for his sake one of those 23 Pugs was a 1.9 GTI.

That is back in 2007,wonder if he actually has reached 3 million or has given up...

[elektix]

I've managed to spend 21 years avoiding Peugeot at all costs. My prize? Not having to spend a weekend with an RCZ....

.... Now who's the real winner?

[Thejimreaper]

Hahaha!!!! What a rubbish thankyou gift. I would expect a new car for free for his efforts. I had a 306 for about a year or so and think they owe me a trip in a ballon and a fake TT for the weekend for that!
