Citroen DS3 Cabrio Racing arrives in the UK – just 10 at £29,305

The Citroen DS3 Cabrio Racing arrives in the UK

The Citroen DS3 Cabrio Racing arrived at Goodwood last summer as a concept, but after the production run of the DS3 Racing a cabrio version seemed a certainty for production. That production run for the DS3 Cabrio Racing was confirmed by Citroen in December and now it’s going on sale in the UK.

With all the extra grunt of the DS3 Racing – 207bhp from its 1.6 litre THP engine, enough for 0-62mph in 6.5 seconds and a top speed of 145mph – and a raft of changes from a regular DS3 including sports exhaust, wider track, revised steering, uprated brakes and switchable ESC, the DS3 Cabrio Racing promises real hot-hatch fun in the sunshine.

With just 100 DS3 Cabrio Racings being built, RHD allocation for the UK is very limited, and Citroen are planning to bring just ten to the UK, each with a price of £29,305.

There’s just one trim level – based on the range-topping DSport trim – which includes LEd running lights, Climate, rear parking sensors, eMyWay, Bluteooth and USB. There’s also a big red stripe down the side.

If you want a Citroen DS3 Cabrio Racing – even at nearly £30k – you’d better make haste to your nearest Peugeot dealer.
