I am delighted to read the comments of fellow RCZ Forum members with regards to their 'Love Affairs' with their new charges and hope to feel some euphoria myself soon.
I have recently received a Pearlescant White 156 GT loaded with some choice accessories, However; I have taken to crawl underneath the car just to view the structure and fitting, as you do ! ! But what has surprised, even Shocked at the Cheap & Nasty Rear Inner Wheel arch fittings, which look & feel like Formed MDF board covered in a recycled fabric. This item is more akin to the lining one would find in ther car possibly under the Dashboard.
I wonder how long these Inner Covers are likely to last, especially in the usually wet weather of the UK. I would like for other owners to find the time to look under the rear of their charges and give an opinion of these Fitting It is a pity that this material has been used by Peugeot rather than something more substantial. Is this the ugly head of CheapSkate Peugeot emerging.........................I hope not. GO ON TAKE A LOOK>

i am not due to take delivery of my car until the end of September.

This sounds very disappointing if its as you say, over recent years I have been very impressed with the build quality of my Peugeots for longevity with the galvanised body on my 309 to the use of plastics/aluminium panels on our 307sw/207cc.

Cannot believe Peugeot would take a a backward step but shall look forward to the replies to this thread.

Nothing to do with cheapness, more to do with road noise, we've got some serious rubber on there so every little helps, also stops water spray noise as well - had this before on other makes and will probably out last the car - don't worry about it just go and drive the car.
