Hiya,
I am still in the early honeymoon period for my 'R', so with 2.5yrs of Warranty left I'm not in any hurry to mess around with anything.
Love the car at this point and not necessarily wanting to change anything.
Nevertheless, at some point - when warranty a thing of the past and assuming I still own the 'R' I may want to change things.
So what if anything is likely to be available - especially performance & Ride/handling
Seeing the post here http://www.peugeotrczforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=8599 its looking like there is limited life in the range. So I assume the odd cosmetic tweak here and there, plus maybe the release of future 'Special edition' models - like the Red Carbon and Asphalt, but eventually, as far as Peugeot are concerned, it will have run its course.
With the limited numbers of 'R' models out there, is anyone (and yes I am looking at you RCZ-Performance for answers :wave: ) going to be able to stock anything for the 'R' ?
I know that at 270bhp'ish and FWD there is a limit to what the RCZ can lay down on the road, but the various Focus RS models have used a similar beefy LSD (Quaife in Fords case) and can put 30+ more horses out there. So will similar tweaks for air filter/exhaust etc be offered for the 'R' ?? I am assuming that Peugeot will have engineered sufficient safety factors into the current 'R' design to limit warranty claims - so there is scope for some tweaks here and there.
