morning,
Can anyone tell me if there are any differences between the 197 and 200 rear cup shocks? I have a R27 and have a leaking rear shock, but there seems to be a fair difference in price between the 2
I’m pretty sure you can use the whole pre 2010 200 Cup shocks on the 197. These are considerably firmer and about £200 a set cheaper than 197 Cup shocks from Renault Parts Direct.
Would love to know what the differences were. The post 2010 200 fronts had different top mounts, but the above prices are just for the strut, so don't know if there are any differences between the 3.
Just tried to call RPD but gave up after 5 mins of being in a Q.
After a bit of digging it turns out you can use the 200 rear shocks on the 197,
I have just bought a set from Kamracing, they have sold a few sets to 197 owners without problems, they worked out over £20 cheaper than RPD delivered too...happy days

No, mine are getting delivered tomorrow so hopefully I will get them on in the next few days, I shall revert back if any difference side by side and if they ride any different

I now can confirm I see no difference from the 197 to the 200 cup rear shocks, I have done a 100 plus miles of mixed driving since fitting and the rear feels just the same as she did before!! Great wee saving over the 197 units
