My SLK is on my local Dealer's forecourt - if it sells I shall be buying an RCZ which is in stock. Auto, Nera black, full Lama leather, dark grey wheels and sports kit; was specified by the MD of the country's importer, who subsequently changed his mind and had a manual instead. One question; it has driver's memory seat - but I have never seen 'memory seat' mentioned in any spec. Is this a standard feature or an option?

That's good news machaley. Hopefully you will soon be in the drivers seat of a gorgeous RCZ.

Keep us updated :thumbup:

Thanks RCZ1. I live in Paphos, the fourth largest town in Cyprus; interestingly the car is not to UK spec; it is UK GT spec. except it comes on 18" Original wheels and MAY have the Sports Kit as standard (how do I tell, as it is an automatic, how different is the steering wheel?)). It has extras as described in my first mail.

Even though I specified the SLK with the very smart wood trim option, the RCZ interior looks more upmarket that the SLK.

The sports steering wheel is 20mm less in circumference and is more flat bottomed than the standard wheel and has the rcz logo at the six o clock position the sports kit has also got a membrane behind the dash to give you an artificial sports exhaust sound

Back to my earlier post; my SLK has still not sold - 'but it will be soon, Sir..' anyway, I was offered a used car today with a comprehensive but slightly odd specification. It is an automatic in blue, with xenons and JBL audio, 4 pipe exhaust, full black leather with heated but NOT electric seats (is this unusual), 19" Solstice wheels with Brembo brakes. I have not seen Brembo brakes as an option; perhaps they were a dealer fit option?

I only saw the 'blue' in the showroom; I would like to see it in daylight before I make up my mind.

Hmmm... When we went to the Peugeot event at Bedford Autodrome last year, all the RCZs there had brake mods. but they were all AP.

I did see another car at the Pinley House meet that appeared to have red calipers with Brembo markings.
Don't recall it being blue, nor automatic......

The heated option without electric adjustment is very wierd in your climate it should be the opposite way as for brembo brakes no british rcz has them as standard

Yes, I agree, the seats are very odd but definietly manual adjustment and heated. The callipers were red with no name on the front ones but 'Brembo' marked clearly on the rears - which looked very large. I will try and take a picture of them next week. The Dealer told me the brakes were fitted when the car was new; the original Invoice price for the car was €34,800 fifteen months ago, about £30,000, at today's rate of exchange. I told the Dealer, call me when you have sold the SLK and I will be there with a cheque for the balance within 30 Minutes!

A quick update! Dealer calls me today to say a customer was coming today to view my SLK; later he calle me to say it is sold. As reported earlier I now have a choice of a new Nera Black or used Blue model - cheaper and slightly better equiped. I have not seen the blue car in the daylight, but it will be brought down from Nicosia on Tuesday for me to choose on Wednesday.

OK, Day two of RCZ ownership. Turns out the colour of the car is Harla Grey metallic, with full (?) Lama leather, auto, 'sports' steering wheel and now fitted with 19" Sortilege wheels - so similar to UK 'GT' spec. Lack of wheelbrace and jack came as a surpise; comes with 5 year warranty. Still can't figure out if it is 'integral' leathre or not; pointless asking the Dealer :-( Dealer told me there were just 5 new RCZ avaibale currently in the country and that the factory had warned of significant price rises soon.

integral leather has a genuine leather dashboard covering with dark stitching the faux leather dashboard has a light grey stitching and the faux dash has a very dull finish to it,
