sadly Arctic blue & Albi blue are the least desirable across the overall piste - renault have now discontinued this colour- however if you like the colour - then its fortunate its the cheaper end of the scale-

offer him 2k & leave your number- thats £750 extra off - covers possible dephasyer. & other little bits like mounts...
Dont take the car if they say they will do the belts-- but you know that!

Well taking the belts aside for the mo- lets assume they are done- you are paying the 'bottom' end price for the car- but you are buying a bottom end 182-
Buying that identical car private would set you back 2k, so essentially youve paid a dealer 800 quid for a tatty car-
Obviously Im not...
What do people see when they look at cars- perhaps im overly critical-
Front bumper been resprayed as mentioned- tidy up or Crash
No mention of belts = no belts ALWAYS
Steering wheel needs replacing
Splitting is missing in action
Exhaust mounts need changing
tints need removing
Non cup pack...
It all boils down to disposable income-
If you can afford to lose money on depreciation then buy one-

I was offered a LY 200 this week for 11k less than the list on these & it has the proper leather recaros with white stiched seats-

I said all these negative points on the RS forum & got shunned away-
what a waste of money
I would by a FF 60 Plate one fully specced in White / silver / rb with Recaros for 10k & Pocket the rest or spend 11k on mods...
the Silver one is OK, If you look at the red one & saw it SIDEWAYS on a...
its a nice car- however for that price tag Its not that unique-
THe wheels dont suit it & the GT spoiler ruins the rear just like it does on every 200-
Nice chairs- however I would stick to a standard well specced 200- & wrap it matt grey if you were that desperate!
