Hello from Australia

[RCZRacing]

Hello everyone I am Belinda from Australia. I own an RCZ Racing. It is my first Peugeot (I grew up in the Fiat Car Club and have 3 old girls from the late 60's and early 70's) and this car is one of best 'new' cars I have owned. It is my everyday driver because I have a belief that life is too short for boring cars and getting to a destination should be part of the experience too. Gosh what is not to love about the shape and sound of these cars.

I have heard (not validated) that there are only 35 RCZ R's in Australia? Does anyone know anything different?

Glad to be a part of this community, as my car gets older I am starting to have to replace a lot of things. My mechanic said, why don't you just get rid of it, but I like it, it is different. But it does make finding parts here and people who know about the cars a little harder. I don't want to sell it, I believe in fixing and keeping things out of landfill.

Hi there Belinda and welcome to the forum sounds like you are a car nut just like the rest of the RCZ owners... Think you're right about the number of RCZ-R in Australia and sound like you're enjoying the experience...

I was told by someone (who reckons they know) that there were 32 R's imported to Oz. I have one too! A rare white one. Great cars. BTW, there's a guy here in Melbourne with a stash of wrecked RCZ's so he would be great if you need parts. Message me if you want his number. The biggest problem for you might be the front discs. I bought a set from Fish Bros in the UK before the price went up...a lot. I've got them stored until I need them.

Good on you Belinda. We bought the very last Audi TT Final Edition unit here in Adelaide. Picking up our RCZ in 2 days. So, after we pick it up, if and when it breaks we'd have to spend roughly 5 x the purchase price of RCZ to make it as expensive as Audi TT. They are both head turning vehicles many people liking RCZ more. So good on you keeping your RCZ R on the road. We live only once, live it up!

Hi Belinda,
RCZs are getting scarce in Australia and the Rs getting very rare, I have a back RCZ automatic (as I am old and lazy).
