The eagerly awaited new Citroën DS3 was launched here last week.
In Ireland the DS3 will be powered by a range of two Euro V compliant engines - the BMW co-developed petrol and the modern Citroën HDi diesel - with power output from 90hp for the HDi 90hp diesel to 95hp in the 1.4i petrol. The sporty 1.6 THP 150hp petrol will also be made available to customers later in the year as a special order.
DS3 is available in three trim levels; DSign, DStyle and DSport (arriving towards the end of 2010 on special order ).
The world of DS3 starts at €18,950 for the petrol VTi 95hp DSign, rising to €21,500 for the 1.6HDi 90hp DStyle model. Pricing for the DSport will be announced later in the year.
Due to the high level of interest in the new DS3, Citroën Motors Ireland has set up a specific DS3 Launch Week micro site (www.citroenopenweek.ie ) where customers can book their appointment to see the new model while also entering a competition to win one of five weekend breaks for two in Paris.
During April and May, Citroën Motors Ireland will be offering the chance for customers to win one of five weekend breaks for two in Citroën’s home city of Paris.
This prize is available to all customers who visit their local Citroën dealer in April and May (closing date May 31 ) and complete a competition entry form.
Entry can also be made by visiting the DS3 National Launch Week micro site (www.citroenopenweek.ie ). The prize includes flights and two nights at a five-star accommodation, as well as dinner for two at a Paris brasserie.
