How much did you pay for your 197?

[webb01]

Just wondering how much people payed for their 197 new from renault dealer?

Also if anyone could give me a rough idea how much i could get one for with 172 cup p/x?

Thanks

I was offered a R27-197 with xenons, climate control for just under 14k. I was offered £4,500 for my Mk2 172.

 

[webb01]

Was that coming to a deal or did they just offer that? Would the p/x price be lower if the price of a new car was alot cheaper if you know what i mean?

Does anyone know if they have a minimum price to sell for?

If you get a good deal on the clio, and I mean a good deal like I did, say 4k off asking price, you cannot expect to get a good price p/ex they will give you bottom end
I had £4500 for my mk2 172
put then I only paid £8500 for my 197 cup after p/ex

 

[webb01]

Yeah thats what i thought, id like to think they will give me a good deal as they do want the sale and i want the car so surely a decent compremise is likely.

Depends on your dealer....

I went in for an R26 meggie, he would'nt go below 18k and offered me 4k in p/x for my 03 ff 172. He thought that was a good deal... Suffice to say I decided against it!

PS He thought it was a good deal BTW!

In general the more you get off list price, the less you get for a part ex, and vica versa.

 

[172blue]

^^ or in my case, give away my car, and get practically nothing of the list price!!! w*****s, it so winds me up!!

 

[Se7en172]

If you want a good deal phone Alex Levington at Evans Halshaw at Stoney Gate Vardy. Great guy as well.

I bought a 197 F1 in Liquid Yellow with Xenons brand spanking new:

£13,995 Car
£1200 Liquid Yellow Paint
£400 Xenons

So £15,595 all in, pretty much the price of a stock 197, my local dealers had a deal on in Sept.

I got an Ultra Red R27 with Xenons For £12,500 !!!!

And was offered 10.5K for my 225, lost a bit of money on the PX but the price of the Clio made up for it.

My experience of 3 dealers this time put me off Renault tbh for this changeover. I was toying with an R26 after taking one round Spa, but when I went to buy one it was the same old story as when I went to buy my 172, (which I ended up buying privately).

Sold privately, and bought a Lotus, they were more accomodating!

It is like everything, it you have a good one, you would probably never go anywhere else, that is how I like to do my business, but Renault dealers just don't offer it sadly, given that the cars are just so GREAT!!

We got a LY R27 with climate control inc. auto lights and wiper, and electric folding mirrors for £16200 including 12 months tax.

could have got it about £400 cheaper but i would have had to wait for it to be built, this one was already in the country

 

[marky-f1]

15300 with a yr tax on a basic liquid yellow f1

 

[joanne]

I ordered a Racing Blue 197 with Cup Pack & Folding Mirrors a couple of weeks ago for March delivery - Paid £13500.
I have a 172 Cup that I was going to p/x but was only offered £4400 for it (53 Reg with 37000 miles in excellent condition) so i'm selling it privately instead.

Hey not all Renault dealers are bad

I grant you there are a lot of out there who don't know much about the product/pricing etc.

But, like me, there are also a minority (it has to be said) that work incredibly hard to maintain the image of the brand (Renault) and offer strong deals on the cars we all love....

From a dealers point of view it is an absolute pleasure to deal with RenaultSport customers because you know your stuff..

..but its annoying to think that most people see the dealer as an enemy!?

Sorry for the rant

 

[deanf06]

How did you get on at the dealer today then mate? What deal did you ge offered?

 

[webb01]

They are going to phone me back tomorrow afternoon with a price.

They reckon they can do 0% finance too but they cant move the price much with this, but if i had finance with another company then they can lower the price, but then you are paying extra anyway cos of the finance.

I will find out tomorrow anyway, standard price comes to about £18k with the extras, just hope they can get that down a fair bit and get a reasonable price for my cup p/x.

 

[Iridium]

Naturally you wanna be paying sub £15k for the 197 - seen as R27s could be had for £14k heh. Just a tip, there is a guy on eBay selling his 56 plate red 197 for £9,995 - apparently looking to part ex it for a Cup... It's Red, Climate, 21k miles so just run in - maybe worth a look, save yourself a wedge?

Go in with prices off the net and don't sing when your there.
