Just been to see and drive the v6!
Exterior is in excellent condition only a few stone chips on the front bumber and some fairly major scratches where the bumber has hit a kerb when being parked but you have to look underneath to see these!
As for the interior well the same problem that hit...
I am just waiting to see the car and get a drive in it. TBH handling doesnt even bother me nor does outright pace....I want something that stands out and rear wheel drive and I think the vee hits the nail on the head!
Insruance is putting me off a little! Mate works for Renault so I can get it at trade value....they are reluctant to take one in part ex and they have a agreed a low trade in price with the seller so I can have it at that. Depends on condition though!
Got the opportunity to get a MK1 V6 (51 plate) with 18k miles on the clock for £11.5k!
Now I dont particularly want to get into finance again on a car but this price is particularly tempting given the low milage.
Is this a good deal for a MK1...is it worth it? I am really tempted :confused...
I think someone might have their wires crossed!

As a driving experience I prefer my MK1 but for comfort/refinement then it would have to be my MK2.
My personal opinion is that its simply not worth it!
I went from MK2 172 > CTR > MK1 172 think its all been said above. Only reason I got rid of the CTR was I started to do loads of miles and I couldnt justify running a new car doing loads of miles....depreciation nightmare! And MPG wasnt great compared to the 172.
I would have another no...
Try a brillo pad if it comes off then its not rust! I get that from time to time on my custon exhaust but it just comes off. Just a build off of all the crap on the roads at this time of year.
I would have thought that that bit would be stainless steal so it wont rust anyway!

But with the optional 18" wheels which look soooooo much better!

Does anyone have a ballpark figure? Need an MOT and Renault Dealer is just down the road so it would be dead handy. Depends on the price though as I can get it done for £25
