Re: +100.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story)
The next task on the R-to-do list is to decoke the engine.
I finally found few specialists over here in ze Germany. Most of them are working on the Minis. But at the end the engine, at least the intake, should be almost the same with my RCZ. THP...

And I'd love to give her into your hands :greetings-wavingblue:
Before I left for the trip I sealed the whole car with some polymeric sealant and car wax. Those bugs should come off easily. That is what I hope :lol:
Re: +100.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story)
Warning! Not for the faint-hearted fans of detailing :-)
This what my R looks like after a +2000 miles trip across Europe. Needs a serious cleaning.
Re: +90.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story)
Yep, my hopes are high. The new 508 seems to be a very sound car.
Yes, there have been rumors of introducting the R engine into the 508 by the time the have equipped it with a particle filter. Currently the 308 GTi is undergoing those changes and...
We have been able to prove that the measuring itself and the measuring device was not set properly. It took us a while to do so. First the court was not leaning towards other court judgement which proved similar discrepancies in similar situations but stayed with the expert's assessment of the...
You get the same over here in Germany.
I think this is down to pure ignorance and selfishness of those people. Often it is pure stupidity as well.
In my opinion the roots of this kind of behavior lie deep in the way how those people have been ill-bred. It takes some effort to teach a kid to...
Bummer :x
Can you take it to the court? I mean, are cases like this in UK defend-able? Or is it just wasting time&money thus paying the fine is the reasonable choice?
Why I'm asking. I just recently went through a long-lasting case here in ze Germany. The case was about speeding on the...
Re: Front breakes upgreade
I assume what AEK is asking here is, if the mounting brackets of the 200 will fit plug&play to his 156 or does it require more parts (like suspension parts) to be swapped before the 200 brakes will fit. :greetings-wavingblue:
It's sad to hear that. But I do get you there.
I have been through this kind of phases with my R too. Those are the days when I hate her :lol: And then seeing those bills flying out of your mailbox make you wanna throw up. Fortunately those days are rare with the R. Obviously you got into the...
Welcome to the RCZ world!
A Renaultsport Clio 197, very nice car. I for myself considered owning one of those a while ago. A 200 Cup, to be precise. I was still infected from my earlier days with my Megane R26. What a car. I still consider it the best hot hatch I ever drove (compared to the...
I have been using only Shell vpower or BP ultimate fuels in my RCZ (ok, maybe once or twice something else, especially in those deep countryside areas) but still the engine/injectors got clogged. This cannot be entirely prevented. Even with my driving profile with over 80% on autobahns and high...
Heartily welcome to the RCZ community :greetings-wavingblue:
Very nice & tidy ride. What a life story.
And when talking about joy of drving the RCZ I can only second that. Also having had few other "driver's car" in my garage before.
This is just bizarre. As much as I love those GTOs the prices are getting just ridiculous. I'd rather have a Toyota 2000GT (yeah, I know, no V12 under the hood) instead.
The Eagles are a very good choice for the RCZ. And the RCZ R. But time is passing by and now we have already Assymetric 3 instead of Assymetric 2 GoodYear Eagle as it was equipped from the factory. I wonder how those newer Assy perform.
The reason why so many choose the outdated Conti 3 or even...
