Most recent UK figures (to end of 2020) show there were 271 R's taxed and 17 with SORN. Compares with 276 and 14 for Q3 of 2020, so there are two less in total assuming all are taxed or notified as being off the road. 288 cars altogether.
Total figures at the end of each year were:

It seems like Christmas. Last night I finally got the car back. Come to think of it, it was anly a few weeks after Christmas when it went in for the engine job. One thing led to another and several £k later as least I am back on the road in my own car.
I was told it should be ready at the end of the week but that was tempting fate. They have run it up and found an oil leak so I get to stay in the courtesy car for another weekend. I won't have to pay for all the additional work that is being done, but it is getting a bit tedious!
Update - should be ready at the end of the week.
The people in France regarded it as a warranty claim even though the car has never left the service department!
I'm not particularly technical but they said I would need a new top half and the cost of that was not far off the price of getting an exchange unit over from Peugeot in France. To dissasemble the engine, replace the top half etc would be labour intensive but to simply crane out the whole thing...
Well, after 154,000 miles my RCZ R engine has failed and I have bitten the bullet and ordered a replacement engine. It will be an exchange engine which I am told is so similar to a new one that the saving on cost is worth it. All I have to do now is look down the back of the sofa for all the...
Depends what constitutes the Launch edition. Mine was the second one in the UK with the first going to a car magazine. There were some changes to later ones, mainly to correct brake squealing issues etc Mine also has the RCZ flashes on the door sills which I haven't seen on others.
The figures for the third quarter of 2020 July to September have recently been published and it shows that there were 276 RCZ Rs taxed and 14 with a Statutory Off Road Notice (SORN) so a total of 290 still accounted for (UK only).
The only change in the last quarter has been a reduction of one...
Thanks for comments. Here is the actual text from the "health check" they emailed me.
We have measured your front brake pads and found them to be 90% worn with only 1mm of material left until you reach the manufacturers minimum thickness.
£1,351.22 is the quoted price. I have got back to...
I would have a good shot at the record for total miles in RCZs, but only if you add the 120,000 I did in my first one to the 152,000 (so far) since I traded it in for my RCZ R. Total 272,000 and rising.
Mine doesn't generally leak oil, not that I've noticed anyway, but is becoming a bit thirsty in its old age. Have had to put in a top-up of a litre on two occasions since the last service, which means about every 5000 miles or so. I assume it was properly topped up at the time of service.
I...
The figures for the second quarter of 2020 April to June have recently been published and it shows that there were 277 RCZ Rs taxed and 14 with a Statutory Off Road Notice (SORN) so a total of 291 accounted for.
There were 293 to end March 2020 so either two have gone to that big dealership in...
