Based on various posts, when you get your R ensure that the pistons have been changed to stainless steel rather than the original mild stainless steel which is likely to seize.

Do you know what the fault codes are? There is an option to reconditioned the high pressure fuel pump. This person has been getting good reviews refurbishing this part. Looking at the ebay I think he might have messed up his pricing 1.6 THP High pressure fuel pump Mini Cooper. Peugeot RCZ...
Agree with Coldel comment above.
I got Halfords All Season, used it once to keep the car dry when I was doing some work on it. It rained quite heavily at one point and it did keep the car dry. However, I decided not to use it now as found it very hard to fold and store properly without getting...
MTEC such a good value and they seem to work fine for me. I do like the drilled look but decided to go with c hook and went for the protective coating in grey like yours.
Yes, definitely no quick option to do that. I've done it multiple times now and as long as you have the right tools, it's not too bad. Here is a link I used
For your info the rocker cover I bought for the Mini is fine. Supposedly in the past Mini owner's would buy Peugeot's ones as they were cheaper. Fortunately, in my case only Mini's one was the cheapest and available and luckily it's exactly the same.
Brock B37 alloy in dark sparkle suit the car very well. Another in Germany have them, 20" ones I think. I don't particular like the Disney decal though ;-)
Glad to hear replacing the PCV was nice and cheap. Ouch for needing a new turbo.
Touchwood mine generally been OK, however, I don't really get to use it that much. There is definitely some leak around my rocker cover so really hoping this Mini cover fits. Car is losing coolant at the moment...
Will hopefully be able to tell you by end of next week as taking car to a garage on Wed. I bought this one TVT Mini Cylinder Head Valve Cover 11127646552 | 11127646552 | Neo Brothers Searching on Google seems to suggest should be compatible for THP200/R. I'm taking a gamble as can't find...
No worries, I am taking mine to an independent Peugeot specialist as I believe the thermostat housing has a crack as losing coolant around the area. Also will get him to replace the rocker cover. Fingers crossed it's the right one. Will get him to inspect the car for anything which may need...
Just checked and my original one doesn't have the shield either. The new one I got which is supposedly the same as PSA 0248S7 is compatible for the following Minis.
Mini R55 Clubman 10-13 - Cooper S & JCW models with N18 engines
Mini R56 Hatchback 10-13 - Cooper S, JCW & GP2 models with N18...
I literally just received the rocker cover from NeoBrothers and it doesn't have metal shield.
I won't know for sure until I take it to the mechanic next week whether it fits or not. If you need one I will let you know whether it fits or not. It's just under £79 from NeoBrothers which is a very...
Black with yellow accent looks nice. I wonder whether they retrofited the built in Sat Nav as I don't believe you can put a double din unit and still have full function of everything if it has built in Sat Nav from the factory. I know the other around works where you put a double din unit in a...
Do you know what the part number of the one from the Mini?
I am looking to replace my rocker cover for my THP200. Not that easy to find. I don't believe the one for THP200 has built in shield in the rocker. These are some options which supposedly fit THP200...
Decided to buy the one which is listed for a Mini from Neo Brothers. Chatting to someone from there they suggest it should be the same as 0248S7. Fingers crossed it fits.
Forgot to say links were just examples. Found one for Mini on ebay so might buy from there to see if it fits.
I can't find 0248.S7 or equivalent Febi 102240 in UK. Places like Autodoc has one by FAI https://www.autodoc.co.uk/car-parts/oem/0248s7 which suggests the Mini one on ebay should fit...
Can't seem to find replacement rocker cover for THP200 which I believe is the same for R as well.
PSA Cylinder Head Valve Cover 0248.S7.
Searching around found that the one for Mini 11127646552 might fit...
Car listed as 2011 so they must have changed the front as it's facelifted front. I assume it's a wrap as the document states the colour as white. As far as I know red leather interior is only on Magnetic model which I have. Also, believe real leather dash was an option, however, many people seem...
