Dreams & Research.



You suddenly got this idea to buy this V6 Lion, Lion with a powerful powertrain, a brand new Peugeot or one particular Lion. You got so excited that you began to ask around or check online for other people’s opinion on that Lion. Then you probably started getting unexpected feedback how nightmare that Animal you are interested in would be for you if you venture in. They try to prove to you with figures, facts, logics or proofs of how right they were about that Lion. Then your excitement suddenly drops. You felt so powerless that you could no longer

Peugeots: Motivation or Inspirations?


   
                            


Motivation demands effort, while Inspiration is ease.


Motivation is putting up with something to make something work, even if you find the subject or process uncomfortable. It’s like being pushed. Probably because you learnt that the process or subject will help you get there or have that, even if you have to work very hard or struggle to do that, which could leave you unhappy while in it. But you continue to put up

COMMENT FROM A PEUGEOT RCZ R OWNER - 10/05/2016



"The R is very economical. The most economical petrol engined RCZ. As for the power, mine is used everyday to commute to and from work (6 miles each way in town driving) as well as journeys further afield. It's easy to drive the R like any other RCZ. It will happily just cruise along at 30 without any problems. Only if you put your foot hard to the throttle and get the revs above 3000 will you start to feel the turbo really kick in and launch you. The R also has a very nice feature where it will crawl along in traffic at 7mph without the need for any feet on the pedals. It's actually perfect for rush hour crawling traffic. So my conclusion is that you should go for the R everytime 'wink'"
                                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                      - Kez.

Why?

People watching me or taking interest in what I do have been asking, "Why V6 Lions? Why are you so passionate or love your Lions that much? Is there much difference between these Peugeots aggressively designed with high power and the conventional ones?"

Words don't usually express how you really feel about a subject, because words you speak don't usually express what you really mean. What you mean is really how you feel and its quite hard for anyone outside you to really know exactly how you feel.

However, this is my answer to all the above questions: There is a difference between fun and happiness. Happiness is a state of being, while fun is in the moment. When I sit behind my aggressively designed powerful Peugeots steering wheels and geared them into quick actions, the thrill of pleasure I get in those moments is what makes the difference. The powers and overall characters they posses are there for me to choose moments of fun or just be happy.


Ikenna, Lion King.
