The Black Demon you see before you was spawned from the hand and mind of Robert Honor� the 'LION TAMER', alot of you may know him as the "D Ras with the Black Peugeot". Creating history in Trinidad, Robert is the first and we think only person to own a Peugeot that has been customized to this extent. The 306 sedan sports 17" TSW Venoms or VX1 wrapped with Falken 205/17/40 rubber, yes you heard right 40 series tyres.
Think about it, ever seen a pug on such awesome rims in Trinidad before?
Not to mention those radical but futuristic body mods, truly touring car style. To complement the jaw dropping exterior, is a full leather custom interior, coloured gauges, custom mats and a "hard pong" (competition quality). However Robert is not new to the car world. Many of us remember him from owning the first hatch laser (canary yellow) to ride on 15" rims as well as the speedy green Nissan Sentra that turned heads everywhere it went. The secret of Robert's success is his pioneering spirit, eagle eye for detail, and meticulous almost ridiculous clean streak. Rain or shine this Pug shines bright, shedding a new light on Euro imports in Trinidad.

All Peugeot owners may now bow!
