The last week of February saw movie superstar, Will Smith, make his return to the silver screen in romantic dark comedy, Focus.

Contrary to what the title of the film suggests, the storyline isn’t about Ford’s popular hatchback.

The story centres on the life of career conman, Nicky Spurgeon (Will Smith), his 'business' of misdirection, pick pocketing, and high-stake gambling, and his intern, Jess (Margot Robbie).

From the get-go, the film has you on the edge of your seat with its action and gripping storyline.

However, you know we’re not here to write a film critique. We’re here to talk about cars!

Throughout the film, there are glimpses of beautiful cars such as Ferraris and American ‘muscle cars’.

But the star of the show (apart from Smith or Robbie) has got to be the Peugeot RCZ.

The RCZ is the Spurgeon’s car of choice during the climax of the movie. And it’s a great choice if you ask us!

Looking gorgeous with its deep red paint job, the RCZ fits right in with Spurgeon’s lifestyle, as it speeds through the streets of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

But what is it about the RCZ that’s so seductive?

Its low driving profile and double bubble roof sets it apart from other cars, making it instantly recognisable. Its mixture of sleek lines and curves make it very easy on the eye.

With this car, though, beauty isn’t just skin deep. There’s much more to the RCZ than it’s looks.

With great features such as a sports steering wheel and improved grip on the road, it’ll be hard to top your driving experience in the RCZ.

You can also order the car to suit your wants and needs.

As well as offering a choice of either a petrol or diesel engine, the RCZ can also come in manual or automatic transmission, ensuring your RCZ's performance and emissions meet your lifestyle.

As well as being gorgeous, sporty, and fast, Peugeot’s wonderful creation is also practical.

Other cars in the same bracket can be small and cramped inside and don’t allow for much boot space. Not the RCZ though.

With this car not only do you get a spacious boot, you also get a rear bench seat allowing for even more flexibility. Perfect when it comes to doing the weekly shop or going on staycation.

There’s so much more we could say about the RCZ but really, you need to see it to believe it.

We have Peugeot branches spread across much of the UK, including:
