No squeking on my R with over 31.000 miles and multiple in and outs each day.

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) It has only partially to do with the car's weight. And the RCZ is not that heavy. You can drive a heavier car which will feel more "light" at high speeds. Yes, the R is very planted up to the limiter. And I assume it will also beyond. It feels glued...

What a price! Bargain! I paid for mine back in Nov 2013 around 24000GBP incl a proper discount. This price here is bollocks. I wouldn't hesitate if I were you...

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) The limit on the R is very high for daily driving. Very high. I'd say, the usual daily-driver Joe would consider you mad and a threat to the kingdom's safety when seen you driving the R at 90%. The R allows you to explore a wast area of cornering...

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Based on some gearing info posted way ago here I reckon it'd do about 265KPH or 165MPH. Already now with the speed limiter kicking in at 157 there are not many revs left over till it bangs against the rev limiter.

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) hi guys, just added a new section, called Modifications, to the first page. Enjoy!

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Thanks guys! I really appreciate that as often forums unfortunately can emanate a negative vibe towards experiences shared on such platform. This is definitely not the case here. It must be down to the nature of RCZ owners who are more open to other...

All has been said here. Based on my past over 31.000 miles with the R on the limit, both in regards of engine and the brakes, I'd anticipate a lifespan of at least 35.000 miles for the discs. If driven "the usual way" I'd go as far as to say, they will last at least 3 annual services or as...

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Maybe I overcooked the topic with all those speedo pics. Sorry guys. My intention was and is not to brag about speeding (on unlimited autobahns). There are other car brands which accomplish a simple job of driving fast in a more or less straight line...

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) in this case maybe I should not post pictures with 254KPH indicated 8-)

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) That's it. People sometimes see the fuel gauge at very low and ask me, don't you want to fill up? You're gonna stop in a moment! Noooo, she's fine. There is a lot more to go :)

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Countless :lol: I just click them away with the BC stalk

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) I love driving fast. Often driving at 150+ becomes boring to me and I wish I had a Corvette ZR1 to go beyond 180MPH :dance: If I had a vette, I would... Attached another fact I learnt about the RCZ. The fuel gauge is very, very precise. What you see...

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) And here is the almost "daily business" for my R :lol: The MPG is about 15 here. But have a look at the average speed (almost 110 MPH). The fastest and best pace on a long journey is between 210 and 225 KMH (about 130-140 MPH) for the R. Within this...

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Here is one of the rare pictures where I managed a high 40ish MPG. This was on my way back from UK. You see the indicated speed of about 75MPH and the distance I travelled (1425km, 880 miles) and the overall MPG. It was a mix of belgian and french...

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Thanks guys! I just went past the 50.000km mark this weekend (equates to over 31.000 miles). Brakes: I'd say, if driven reasonably and the "usual way" compared to my BTCC style :lol: they should be good for like 3 annual services. I asked at my shop...

hi guys, I'd like to start here and continue, as the time goes by, my review of the RCZ R I drive on almost daily basis. I start here with the first 30.000 miles she did since last year when I picked her up at the dealer. Spanking new (4 miles on the ODO). Please be patient with me and cut me...

wrong seats, failed! :P

indeed, indeed. got already the front brakes replaced (discs + pads, two times). she is running like on fire :greetings-wavingblue:

Thanks Pete for the feedback on those MPSS! Sounds interesting. I also already drove off the GY (it took them about 12000 miles to wear off on the fronts and both rear tyres caught screws in them, so they need to be replaced too) and I'm considering the michelin too. Conti are way too hard for...
