Hi. I need to replace the rear shocks on my r/s 200. Is there a cheaper OEM option or do I just buy Renault ones from RPD/kam, etc? Many thanks.

Well if you want genuine, actual 200 cup shocks, yes RPD or Kam.
That being said, I can't quite believe how expensive they are now.

I just checked my bill from 2020, and rears were £38.71 each. Fronts were £37.44 each

Yeah I was looking a while ago and the rear cup shock is 95£ for just one and 167£ (??) for the 200 apparently (for ONE!),in the end I just went with Gaz which are not that much more expensive anyway and come with the springs.

Thanks for the replies. Yes it was really the price of them that made me wonder whether I’d simply be paying for renault packaging whereas I could buy the oem ones for more sensible money. As we know absolutely everything costs a fortune nowadays…
