There will be better clues to a cat c than missing elf stickers :D
You can look for doors not closing properly or body panels mis-matching.
Oh - hang on - they're like that when they leave the factory ;):D
How much will they pay me ;):D.
Good point though - just might have a look through the shop :cool:
Edit - nooooo - tax disc holders should just be big enough to hold the tax disc - little pockets for breakdown card etc are just wrong :dead:
2nd thing I do is replace the free advertising in the tax disc holder from the supplying dealer - replace it with the simple magnetic ones from halfrauds.
can't stand stickers adverts etc anywhere in the car.
Had 3 Imprezas myself - Turbo - UK300 - STi.
Are you finding the 200 slower but much more fun ?
Will keep my eyes peeled for you too - have pals in Methlick so am often passing through Oldmeldrum :).
White's not great if you can't wash the thing - mind you managed to get it's first wash...
Banchory.
To be honest it's probably fine for the back-roads round here - I wouldn't describe the ride as soft :) - but you do get to keep all you teeth after a run ;).
I guess it (cup pack) would come into it's own on track etc.
Mr Cynical in me would say they've found someone willing to pay more.
Plausible enough reasons given I suppose.
Plenty cars out there for sale - sure you'll find another one soon enough :)
The guys asked what questions to ask - I didn't say what he should do with the answers. If someone said yeah I'll accept 2/3 of the asking price I'd walk away - If they said no but I'm willing to drop £x then I'd know where the bargaining really starts :).
Oh - And I wouldn't be worried about...
1. What's the mileage ?
2. I'm only willing to pay < insert 2/3 of the asking price > Would you be willing to accept that ?
3. Why are you selling it ?
4. If buying privately when you call say "I'm ringing about the car you have for sale" - don't mention make / model etc - this will...
From what I've read on here coming out of a CTR into a 182 will be a bit of a shock (comfort / build quality etc).
Only way to be sure would be to try them all.
Then pick the 200 ;)

Full Fat = Full Spec = All the toys etc
Will probably be 300 posts now to get a more precise definition ;)
Poor light - crap camera phone :(.
Will try harder next time :)
Was gonna take another shot this morning - car was hard to find as Aberdeenshire has seen the return of the white $hite :evil:
Not sure what's worse - the lameness of my "joke" - or you lot not getting it ;):rasp: (Apart from SC03OTT :) )
Yeah - I could have saved more pennies but I'm happy with £13,150 for a full fat 200 - could have blown another 3-4k - but as Madusa1 says - nowt wrong with the STD car.
Madusa1 -...

Not sure what all the fuss is with the RR etc.
Seems an unhealty obsession with numbers - use your fuel to see how fast you can get you from A to B - not tryng to find out if the French are lieing b@stards or not - we all know the answer to that one :D
That's the fookers I went into to see before getting mine from Aylesbury - The ar$e in the showroom wasn't interested in taking me on when I was enquiring about the 200 - Said something along the lines of we've not had any in and we wont get any until we've got shot of the 200 GT over there...
Oh yes - there's some great roads between Banchory and Aberdeen that seem to suit the 200's chassis - Even in the wet it's suprisingly "sticky" :D.
Not quite so much fun in the snow - but hopefully we've had the last of the white $hite for a while :)
Aye - that's why I went for the 200 - wanted to be different ;):D.
No Idea why but the 200 seems to as rare as rocking horse $hite in Aberdeen - Mind you the local Renault stealers are complete bellends !
White. but it was tucked up in Banchory over the weekend.
will give you a wave if I see you - You work in Altens by any chance ? - sure I've seen a blue V in the area - can't be too many in Aberdeen !
Had a quick scan - but the 200 seems to come in for much more criticism than the new laguna :D
ps Not sure I've ever seen anyone saying the V6 is ugly - it's maybe impractical - but they are things of beauty :)
