Just to add to what Ian said, if you like car and intend to buy, either take a mate who is a trained mechanic to check it out or failing that, get an AA inspection, I know this costs but could save you a few £££s in long run. Good luck mate.

^^^^ Got mine from Barkers to, Racing Blue but without cup pack and they are imported direct from France, unlike Motorpoint who sometimes import from Cyprus. I know Barkers have a couple of Black Golds in for £11,995 but thats all with no cup options, last I heard they where attempting to get...

Have just contacted renault to register mine, I get the full 3 year warranty as my car was imported direct from France (I am also 1st owner on log book) Got mine from Barkers in Preston. Like as mentioned above, think some of Motorpoints cars are registered in Cyprus so only 2 years warranty...

I have the clunk noise too, did they find out what that was? read a thread on here somewhere that is the ABS setting.

Am in a bit of a panic, have had a mate in the car today ( a trained mechanic, though its not what he does now!!!) I must admit, I hav e heard this noise at about 80, but am now hearing this at slower speeds and he has heard it to, sounds like a wheel bearing going or brakes binding, no pull at...

Congrats mate, only a week to go :)

Right, had the 182 a week, going to work this morning had my lunch bag on passenger seat containg my flask, and you guessed it, the flask was fooked and I now have a nice coffe stained passenger seat :( Any tips on what to use to clean the Alcantara (however it is spelt:oops:) as I now have...

Just a quick question really, I bought an import 182, it is a europen import (from Paris according to book) do I have to now inform renault UK to claim 3 year warranty, or will I automatically be covered???? Asked guy from garage, he said no, but this is same guy who told me there was no running...

Clio182 try http://www.barkerspreston.com/http://www.barkerspreston.com/ I know that earlier he still had 3 black gold in stock, they are imports but Barkers can have a Class 1 Alarm fitted for £250, price for car is £11999, pm me for more info

Done 200+ miles today, no problems yet (touch wood) will let you know after w/end, blast down to Thruxton (well, Leisurely drive as I am I run-In mode) then across to Brecon then back upto Wigan Monday, that should hopefully dig out any problems

Full Service History, Full Renault Service history, glad I could help mate, happy car hunting, looking is part of the fun by the way :)

OH 2hrs 38mins 25secs, still not counting, honest ;)

Best thing I found when buying used is to look around, like you say the miles a car has done affects price but not necessarily condition, say you have a 51 plater with 20K on clock, may be a sh*t tip inside and has not been looked after, on the other hand there may be a 51 plater with 50k on...

They are open Sunday hours, open at 11, I will be there at 11.30 once all cars have been removed from lock-up :D

Went from Pug to VTR, still get misty eyed about driving that Pug, wheelspin in 1st, 2nd AND 3rd (then again, that could have been my tyres). Helluva car know the 182 will be at LEAST as good. VTRs same as 106 GTi handling wise, just you have to rev the nuts off it to get it to go anywhere fast.

Get a 182 Wend172;)
