Well if they are the same company they dont give the same quotes, Tesco came out cheaper than Direct Line for me.

I actually worked on the production of the web pages for the online Liverpool Victoria motor insurance site, gimme your reg numbers for a *special* quote ! LOL ! As for Direct Line, I found them very similar to my current insurers Tesco but just a little bit more expensive, Tesco were the...

Fair play, that is a cracking price, did they give you a date for delivery ?

Cheers guys, just what I needed to know ! Looks like I will still have 13 monrhs warranty left on my new car then ! Any problems should have been sorted by now but you never know ! Only 5 days to go !

Cheers Lee. The reason I ask is because I just phoned Renault to see if the 172 I am buying has the remainder of the warranty left on it, the guy said that as long as it is an EU import then it should do. I am sure it is and comes with the CoC but I just want to make sure that the CoC means...

When you get the CoC (ooo-er) with your Import vehicle, what does this mean ? Does this mean that it conforms to the standards of the EU market ? If a vehicle has this does it mean that it is an EU import, i.e. NOT a grey import ? Cheers, D

With my first 172 the only problem I had was the washer jets popped out but that was no biggy. Had a few rattles but then the music was always too loud to hear them ! When I test drove my 2nd 172 (which I am picking up on the weekend) it seemed to have no rattles inside but then I was only in...

I dont think there is anything else to say. You can pay £12,900 for a UK car with 3 year warranty and alarm OR You can pay £11,249 for an Import with 3 year warranty and alarm That is the choice available to you if you are buying new.

MattsClio, what difference does it makes that it is an import ? A huge number of people on these boards have import 172s and they came with a 3 year warranty anyway. Do a search on the boards for warranty and you will find many threads on this subject explaining this topic. As for alarms...

NO !! If you are talking about a 182 then yeah that is not bad but not a 172 ! Check out http://www.motorpoint.co.ukwww.motorpoint.co.uk where you can get a BRAND NEW 172 for £10,999 ! Save you £2,000 there ! They currently have all colours except Red IN STOCK now. Sorted ! Or you could...

Just decided to get a 172 instead of the 182.... for now ! Will wait for any teething problems in the first year or so, so I know what to expect to go wrong. The 182 sounds like a fantastic car but then so is the 172, I cannot justify paying £3000 more for a 182 at the moment, maybe in a years...

You would lose hell of a lot, £2000 pretty much as soon as you drive it off the forecourt unfortunately. Too early to change if you dont want to lose a lot of money to lose it again as soon as you drive the 182 off the forecourt IMHO. Cheapest 182 I have seen is just under £12k at...

I was wondering, does this day work on a first come, first served basis with limited spaces ?

Cheers greeper ! I am excited about it and then in a years time I may look at the 182 if they bring that yellow into the UK ! When I heard it wasnt coming as a standard colour that made up my mind for me !

My birthday a week later in May so that is definitely a good option for me ! Either one actually !

paddy, the car was registered March 2002, 02 reg. I thought it was a bargain !

How much are they to replace ?

Its on your website I demand you supply me a yellow car now, and at no extra cost ! ;)

Potster, I lost £300 a month when I sold my first 172 after owning it from new. Put me off a bit but then I did not keep it long so it was partly my own fault as I sold it within the first year where all the money comes off ! The Monaco Blue 172 I am buying has 4 brand new tyres on it, taxed...

That is one thing putting me off getting a 182, the thought of losing pretty much £2,000 as soon as you drive it away is something I dont know if I am prepared to do AGAIN ! Done it once already with the first 172. Also, there has to be niggles with the first batch of 182s so it could benefit...

Black is NOWHERE near as popular on Auto Trader as Silver, no way ! Not in terms of cars for sale it isnt. Look on Auto Trader and do a NATIONAL search for 172s and tell me how many Black 172s you find and how many Silver 172s you find ! Red is rare but you have to ask why ? Because not a...

It is the same with black too, you never see many black 172s for sale ! When looking for my 172 I reckon 90% of the 172 MKIIs for sale were silver ! I ended up find a blue one which also seems to be rare, they all seem to be rare except for silver as that must be the most popular colour by a...

OK, the 172 still has over a year left on the warranty. 2002 model, warranty till March 2005.

Simple question.............. If you had the choice right now to get a low miles 172 for £9000 or a brand new 182 for £12500-£13000 (inc. cup pack) then what would you go for ?

They were NOT on the site 2 weeks ago no. I phoned up a Renault dealer just now and they said that he didnt know about that colour, just the 4 base ones but he was going to find out for me. They must be available as they are on the Renault site. Maybe they have just been introduced in to the...

The price on my screenshots does not include colour sat nav in the quote ? Could that be the difference ? Also, not seen many import places selling 182s yet and those that are do not mention colours at present, be interesting to see what colours they offer and if you can have the cup...

That would be good, may change my mind over the 182, the yellow just looks so RIGHT ! In the configurator it definitely doesnt alter the price.

YELLOW IS A FREE OPTION ACCORDING TO THE CONFIGURATOR ON RENAULT.CO.UK, just checked now....... The yellow colour is called JAUNE SIRIUS and looks gooooooooooooood ! It looks like the same colour yellow anyway ? Correct me if I am wrong ...

Oh right, ok, I stand corrected, never knew that, never seen one. *POST DELETED*

What ? You can get a Cup in Silver ? Since when ?
