Those calipers are 3 years old and have done less than 20,000 miles. The dirt and oil hides cosmetically they are in really good condition. It was an effort to get the pistons out. The pistons are corroded, the chrome breaking up and scoring the piston. He was talking about Land Rover...

Here is what the brakes looks like. The pistons are chrome coated mild steel. They corrode, the chrome comes off the piston and you end up with jammed pistons. Speaking to a brake specialist this problem isn't confined to us with our Peugeots. It's a widespread Alcon issue and one they don't...

They've approved the calipers now? It will be good to get new calipers, but you'll face the same issues further down the line. We should be getting together with the Peugeot 308 Gti owners and pressing for Peugeot and Alcon to sort what is clearly an inadequate design. We should not require to...

The white one never felt right to me. The car has only done a tiny amount of miles since the sale. The engine must have blown up within a handful of miles. A brand new engine and turbos sounds good in a car at £11,995. That car has to sell soon. It has been on sale for ages. One one R has...

There is 65 plates.

It was the one advertised on here with a very expensive private plate. I thought it was £14,200 on an eBay auction. Something didn't feel right with me about the car when it was for sale. The mileage is the same when the car was sold on eBay. The engine must have lasted 5 minutes.

The R with the brand new engine has had another £1000 knocked off it. First to see will buy is still on the advert. I'm sure it was £14,200 they paid for it on eBay a while back. The new engine and turbo was another £8000. They are now asking £11,995. Expensive ownership when they haven't...

The front brakes is the big one. The cost of the front brake discs, pads and caliper issues is big. Timing chains are a common issue and this engine is in the Mini, petrol RCZ and various other Peugeots. A lot of cars face the same issue and cost. Clutches and DMF issues happen in all cars and...

As Verminator found they can work their way loose. I've seen people with bodywork paint damage as they whip around. They also don't look good.

Four have gone from Autotrader in the last few days.The one from Sytner only went up a few days ago. The grey private sale one has gone. The red one linked on here went and has come back. The car with the new engine has dropped the price by another thousand. The owner paid more than they are...

This is an issue Peugeot and Alcon should be forced to sort out. Brake calipers should not need replaced, or aftermarket repairs required after a few years.

Scumbags. I agree it has been stolen to order. They are expensive to buy.

https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/peugeot_rcz_r_thp As of Q3 2022 there was 259 taxed and 18 sorn. There is a few dealers that have helped boost/influence the prices or rarer cars by snapping up a good percentage of them. They need to earn reputation as a specialist though.

The 121,000 mile car has gone. That's all of the lower priced cars gone from AT. When will one with the new engine finally sell?

Another new one has popped up today. I see the same dealer now has three cars. They do have their numbers wrong how many are left in the UK.

The normal advice is to change both coil springs at the same time. Genuine Peugeot front springs are over £140 each and then you've got labour to add. Getting a spring fitted for £28 seems too cheap.

People have predicted the end of higher priced cars and house prices for as far back as I can remember. Yet house and car prices continue to increase. The demand for high end premium cars isn't going to end. Whilst I agree car prices need correction, car prices are still strong. There is a few...

I really don't think most people care about condition to a high level. That includes enthusiast cars. People still buy write offs knowing they have been damaged repaired. The MOT history of a lot of the Rs leave a lot to be desired, but it's the same for all cars. A driver shouldn't need an...

A lot of people can't really see things or aren't concerned with damage repairs. Written off cars used to be significantly cheaper. The gap is far too close now.

It looks poorly repaired in the photographs. The colour differences are really bad. The front splitter is body coloured. The dealer selling it knows. One of the photos they've taken from the side the rear spoiler isn't fitted. There is little sign of the C hooks on the discs. They are...
