bummer - TS10 (traffic light) convictions play hell with your insurance too!

I bought some Phase 3 standard ones from eBay for £20 and then sold my old Reno Crystal lights for £50. Each to their own i guess

I like it :o - just need to figure out whether its worth £13.5k as oppose to a Cup at £12k really! Matt

it will be worth at least £10k - maybe a little more privately

Because they make it up as they go along :@

Best price I got locally on a 182 Cup with Recaros for my mate was £12,150 - anywhere I could get better? anyone want to be my f&f?!

My insurer (& my wifes) werent bothered by my SP60 You can get SP60 anywhere (not just mways) - although it sounds like theyre sometimes used when you should really get an SP30? - see http://www.safespeed.org.uk/pr124.htmlhttp://www.safespeed.org.uk/pr124.html

Good luck Nick - the ring trip at Easter was awesome, and being a newbie it was good of you to make the effort not just to hang around with the other oldies! Matt

must be an import with 2yr warranty?

get the Recaros no question - I believe pre-telephone kit is just a wiring loom, making it cheaper to install a Renault hands-free kit?

The deflectors Ive used on several trips have been fine - never melted and seem to cut out the dip to the left effectively (well against a wall they seem to work) - xenon lights still emit light across the road so you can block some of it out! If you dont bother you risking it IMO (esp in...

:devilish: I know - but its wrong

As Griff said its worth what someone is willing to pay - if you get the right buyer then great! If youre in no hurry thats better. Nobody ever bought a Clio for their residuals, and unless youre one of the f&f braggers youll always lose. If you ask people what its worth youll always get a...

/\ /\ /\ /\ agreed - just stick tape on, or buy those deflector things from Halfrauds - they dont do much, but its another thing local Plod looks for (speaking from experience :oops:)

I had black/gold - looked awesome, but it was a real bugger to keep clean! If I could do it again I would choose Racing Blue (its cheaper too!)

£8k tops I reckon - less if you need to sell it quick or trade it. New engine would knock it down a bit; especially privately.

Im 65" and it took me a couple of months before I got used to it! Got back pain for a couple of weeks at the start too :o See how it goes - may be worth trying out one with the Recaro option to see if its any better - if so you could always get an aftermarket one fitted.

Wow - are you sure it was a Revod one?! looked kinda slow...;)

My old Accords seats were awesome - if theyre the same they will be spot on!

flippin eck - mine was £123 all in with courtesy car in Skipton - didnt you get a quote first?

Thats pretty good then! :) Cant I be your friends friend?!

not at all - I was only offered £8.5k (against list for a V6 too!) for mine before I sold it privately (UK cupped car, 16k miles etc) Dont forget the buyer could probably negotiate down to £10.2k ish, and £1k margin is about right with a main dealer. Was that outright purchase or against...

think youd struggle tbh - best just wing it, and drive sensibly!

Unlikely - you can buy 04 ones now for <£13k and thats from dealers...

Unlike everyone else I say go for it! Like mine!! http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y57/mattandcarol/Clio9.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y57/mattandcarol/Clio10.jpg

About time there were some positve comments! Good write up, I too have been really impressed with my 182 - no probs in 16k miles, and nothing for the money touches it - in real terms you dont lose quite as much in depreciation as you might think, the best new deals I could get on a MCS/CTR were...

missed this last night - nice one :cool:

£9.5k is easily achievable for an 04 if you buy privately - maybe less if you find a desperate seller!

Great pic - first Ive seen of the Recaro option - very tempting! would deffo order them with any new 182...

err its just a bit heavy for the roof - Cups are ideal tow-cars though!
