i just bought mine, 2 owners, full renault history, 58000 miles, from a dealer, for £3800. between 3-4k for a real nice one! make sure belts are done! oh yes 53 reg

Year, Mileage, Mods, Cars condition, service history, helps in a valuation.

as little as possible, they are poo, get a 182:rasp:

3k on a 52 plate i'd say

you would end up stripping ti for the same reason you did with the gti tbh!

we both know its true!

I just bought a 52 plate on 40k, mint condition, belts done, just serviced, 11 months MOT, 3 months Tax, £3,850.

Dangerous Daves looks a steal for the price and what you are getting but it depends if that's the route you plan to take, I was seriously considering yours Dave but I let it go due to the distance.

Got mine in Jan, cost me £3700 but It hadnt had belts done.

It had FSH, 66k on the clock dec 03 registered

 

[edewer]

had a load of interest in mine at £4k, done 70k and belts/depasher/72k service done plus reasonable mods. thinking i'm keeping it now though

Good choice - I sold my 106 gti 2 months ago and bought a 172 cup - you won't look back mate

Basically the 172 non cups you can grab quite cheaply - but for a cup you're looking £3k upwards

and for £3k it'll be quite high mileage and not the best of the bunch
Try to budget £3500-£4k for a good one and you can't go wrong
Make sure you get one with cambelts done as they're costly

Mine cost me £2800 but has done 96k - but it's a very late 53 plate with a folder full of services so I didn't mind too much, and it flew through the MOT with no problems at all

 

[Tyssen]

Dont let it not having had the belts done put you off. I used it to get some money off mine and had them done over at NW Performance for £300

 

[Cup_Phil]

Yeah don't totally walk away - just say you need £400 knocking off to have them done

 

[Pearce]

cheers people so between 3500 and 4000 yea fuzzy im on the 106 owners club ive got the white 106 wiv th monos you had to right to me for swearing or summat lol

 

[Cup_Phil]

LMFAO probably

 

[Riley!]

I second fuzzy on price range

 

[Jonff]

Cup's seem to have held their value really, I paid 4k for mine just over a year ago and at the time it was the going rate.
