My Peugeot RCZ THP 200


RX_37

Recommended Posts

Nice one

 

I'll be honest I ignored the notification of this thread at first as I thought it would just be another TDU mod request :lol:

 

 

3100rpm does sound a tad high for motorway speeds, but I can't really comment objectively since I've got 7 gears

 

 

Be sure to find the Driving Videos and Acceleration videos threads and update them ;)

Also i thought it revved quite a lot while driving 65 mph or so it was at about 3100 RPM. Is that really normal?!

 

My Audi does 2-3k RPM at 80kph :lol: I guess the gear ratios are optimized for city driving, not sure if that could be the case here :hmmm:

 

Anyways, beautiful car, hopefully you have better roads down there than we have here :p

Thanks for the comments guys :) I love driving it, it's a lot of fun and so very beautiful. As for the engine RPM apparently it's supposed to be like that. Gearbox ratios are set up like that, but it's fine eitherway :) It's not a racing car, it's a cruising car ;)

 

Yes it's the 1.6l THP 200 engine :D

 

I'll see about more pictures in the coming days depending on weather/time etc...

Great choice of a car. I wish Canada could import euro cars.

 

Anyways back on topic. Really? 42000km since 2011 is alot???? Average now a days is 25000 average per year. So I do believe that is pretty good. Mine is 2009 and I have 126000.

 

And with the RPM wise, since I am guessing its a 4 banger(4 cylinder) and a 1.6L? If that is right then your RPM are right. I do 3100RPM at 140kph but mine is a 1.8L with a throttle controller. So you are fine.

Yes the revs are nothing to worry about. It's supposed to be like that.

 

Well thing is i saw another one of these RCZ's that had the exact same spec and also a 2011 that only had 7000 km on it and it was only 1000 € more expensive. I'm still disappointed in myself for not buying that one instead, but the one i do have is still great so i'm still happy.

 

I'm gonna get the car a full detailing in 2 weeks time or so to clear up any scratches in the paintwork so it'll look brand new again! :D

Went out for a little drive around some backroads today. I probably had a pretty high average speed.... Car pulls good above 4000rpm in 4th :lol:

Was the first time i've gotten to test the car a little more on twisty roads too. Only problem was that there were a lot of bumps in the road so i was a bit fearful of the rims :( But they made through it so it's all good.

 

A few quick pictures i took while letting the car "cool down" a bit:

 

These were the kinda roads i was on, altho this is in a small village.

Yes i think so too about the interior. It's really great! :)

 

It's available in TDU1 already. And i don't play TDU2 so it doesn't matter to me :D

 

I don't play TDU1 so... :) I would like to see in TDU2 because of lights and indicators in interior, would be awesome to see it :)

Also had the pleasuse of BEING REVERSED INTO yesterday! --.-- The idiot got off lucky tho as it only left a small paintmark behind the left side wheel on the bumper. Was able to rub it away, and no dents occured. Inspected it today and it looks fine from what i can tell. Thank god for that.
