If it was local I would have gone and bought it but 180 miles away im sure I will get busted going that far to buy it :p. I doubt they will wait until April to off load it. Its a private sale and the brake issue has been fixed as well ;)

You must be joking have you seen the traffic on the roads? Lockdown what lockdown? And I’m sure I’ve read that if you purchase something like a car and have to travel to collect it you legally can.

I just joined to find out more about Peugeot RCZ R, as I have been trying to find one to buy but want to find out any common issues with them which might cost a fortune rectify.
I am a member of the Peugeot Sport Club so am used to driving peugeots having owned several Peugeot205's, 1x 206, 4 x 306's , 1x406 , 1x 307, and a 2008. Now that the kids have grown up I think its time for a fast car again, so hoping that newer fast peugeots are as reliable as old peugeots ;). I still run a fast old peugeot in the form of a genuine peugeot 205 turbo technics :D.

There doesn't seem to be any real guidance on whether you can collect a car. That said the fine is £200; paid in 14 days is £100, hardly a deal breaker for owning an R with your apparent 'cheeky offer' accepted.......

You have three more to choose from on Autotrader priced from £15.5 to £16.5K; red one with 20K looks nice, an Audi Main Dealer is selling one too! If you got the P&G one you would have a decent renewable Peugeot Warranty too for at least another 5 years.

Seen the P&G one before and its local, the first time I saw it was £13K when it had 2 owners now its had 6 owners and price has gone up a lot. I usually steer well clear of cars with that many owners in such a short period of time. Definitely tempted by the other 2 as only 2 owners and low mileage.

How long have you been looking? The last time that car was up for sale was May 2018. It's not passed through owners for a while.


Coupes that aren't easy to live with and pass through hands easier than 4 seater saloons. Your alternative to a RCZ R is an Evo 360 which is the complete opposite of a RCZ R. Are you sure you're looking for the right car?


You've passed up a bargain at just £10.5k. You offered just £9.5k as you wanted a a red or black one.

You've then had a cheeky offer accepted for the white one that has had all maintenance carried out, but then backed out for someone else to step in.

You've been on here since August. I am not sensing that you are a serious buyer.






The red one looks nice, but Rally DNA?

Im just very picky with cars and never rush out to buy one :p. Looked at over 100 gti's before I bought one is an example of my pickyness 🤣. Anyway think I following up on the black one 15 plate
