True, but i'm a firm believer of the saying 'you get what you pay for'
For example early 182's for 6.5k - will they be as good as one for 7k etc ?? I doubt they will.
As Ian said they are not all rotters, there are still a few very nice examples out theres.
Your comments (which I've highlighted) make no sense either, how are erst's & frst's any good as standard ?? They are the cars that are rusty sh*tters ! Even 'minters' up for 4k are mainly poo - I know...

Agreed, you make good comments there:)
I'm not asking about reliability. In my experience you usually get what you pay for unless you get a baragin - hence the thread.
Just wondering really, in relation to this thread

I agree that the car does seem to be advertised for a fair bit over what most (and me) would pay.
I read a lot on here about - " I only paid x amount for my mint 172/182 etc"
Or...
Why ?
It's because they are still wanted & sought after, so people will pay the money for them. As for not being special, i'm not sure where that comment comes from tbh :S
It's a bit like the majority of hot hatches of the 90's tbh. Look at the price of escort & fiesta rs turbo's & 205 gti's...
As mentioned alomst anything you could ever need to know is on here, plus a few members (edde especially) know pretty much everything there is to know:cool: and what they don't know isn't worth knowing !
With regard to the empty threads etc, it's likely that the question has been covered...
"Finished in Black Ambla (simulated leather) and Black Dinamica (simulated suede) covering."
I always thought that they were genuine leather & suede :S

I know that the numbers are irrelevant with them (older uk cars with higher numbers than some later registered cars etc)
This dude has 0001 :)
Pricey though imo.
I remember when I sold an old one on there with a split in it, I mentioned in the ad it had a small split (I bought a new one as i'm a perfectionist:) ) I got the price of a new one for it:cool:
