New 207 CC ready for action

Exclusive spy images in this week's mag reveal the new Peugeot 207 CC

Top that!Exclusive images in this week's mag reveal the roadgoing version of Peugeot's 207 CC, and our spy photographer had to be quick to capture its new roof. Just moments after spotting the undisguised cabrio, its driver hastily retracted the clever folding metal hard-top, before making tracks.

The newcomer is set to replace the popular 206 CC and take on rivals such as the Nissan Micra C+C and Vauxhall Tigra. Company bosses hope it will leap straight to the top of the class thanks to its new 1.6-litre petrol engines.

Co-developed with BMW, the normally aspirated unit will be available with outputs of 115bhp and 130bhp. Performance fans will also be able to get a turbocharged version from the GT, which produces 150bhp and gives a 0-60mph time of around seven seconds. The 207 CC debuted at the Paris Motor Show last month in concept form as the all-white hydrogen-powered EPURE. Fans of the pretty show car will note the chrome rollover bars behind the second row of seats have made it into production, along with the exposed alloy strip where the hood meets the bootlid.

The roadgoing car will be officially unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March, and will hit UK showrooms next summer priced from £14,500.
