Modified RCZ Owners Interview with Perry

Modified RCZ owners talking about their pride and joy


Introducing Perry Sammie who became a member of modified RCZ owners club in 2020.
Hey, I’m Perry 31 years old and based in Northampton (UK) I run a car network called Auto Linked where I host club days at our ever growing number of venues.
Besides my hobby turning into a job I am also a caring husband and proud father of 3 little once.


🚘 where does your passion for Peugeot come from.


My passions has come form the RCZ. I have only owned two Peugeot's and both have been a RCZ. Peugeots design really stands out form the crowd in a unique way compared to most of the cars on the road. I have never had anything major go wrong compared to other brands I have owed


About 5 years ago I bought my first Peugeot which was the Mk1 RCZ in black. I absolutely loved the car, it was a real head turner but due to family and work commitments I had to sell it.


After a couple year and lifestyle changes I have jumped head first into the car scene and attend / host loads of shows throughout the year. I knew I needed a car to match and narrowed it down to a Audi A5, VW Scirocco or A RCZ MK2


When I come down to it the RCZ HDI 2.0 won hands down. After already owning one I knew how much run there are. When I attend local meets and shows there is not another RCZ in sight and I like to be different! Pre covid I travel 100 miles a day so I needed something economical. Last of all just look at its beauty.


I do get lot to stick having a French car in the UK but I love it. It has never let me down and Peugeot’s look so unique compared to most of the cars in the road. I love them!
