What do I need to look for when buying a used 172 mk2? Any hints are greatfully received.

This is the car in question.
I have just been to test drive it and Im in love. Car is a dream.
Few little scratches, needs tyres, alloy scuffs and tracking done which he will do for me. Also matts, service and mot.
Renault...
I have just found this car which I would like to buy. In the spec it says metallic Blue. They didnt make a colour called that did they. Can someone have a look at the link and shed some light on the official colour. Mondial or elctric maybe?

Just got back from devon and half way back the front started clunking. Im dreading going to renault to be treated crap again.
I am really going off this car.
Cheers for all the replies guys. I just got back from devon so sorry for no replies.
No need to argue though, lol.
Is there much difference in the handling at all? also does the cup have the traction control and braking control?
UPDATE: Just found this on parkers. Do these sound more realistic?

I have just been on this site and it has the same figures for the 172 and 172cup. 0-60 in 7.3 and top end 138? Are these right as some of you are saying cup is quicker...
Morning all,
Me and a friend are looking at buying the following cars:
mate is test driving a 172 today and im thinking of the idea of a 172 but maybe a cup.
What are the exact differances between the two cars and the +s and -s for each?
Many thanks
A few weeks ago my car wouldnt start. I put the battery on charge as I thought it was this. Came back to it later on and it started.
A week after that I went out to the car and nothing at all, so I called the aa. He put his leads on but wouldnt start so we decided it was the starter. Mr AA...
yeah i can remember what u look like from FCS and also the pic of you driving into fcs.
I was stood with you at FCS waiting to go in at 7. I convoyed up with dave182.
Its ok now its back from walker renualt. They havent fitted a new starter motor so it will most likely happen again.
I was in penny blacks, i had a walk round but couldnt see you.
