Hi Sue, and welcome,
It doesn't matter if you spent £10k on fixing the car, it does not add any vaule to it.
£7.5k is way over priced for a private sale. Try more like 6-6.5k and you may actuly sell it.
Age 23 172 cup with lowest mileage cup in the UK @ 12,300 miles. Bought 50% of the car with a loan and pay £770 full comp insurance with 1 ncb, clean license. I do not own a house but i have some savings.
Been there done this.
I bought a 172 a year ago and cud not afford to run it. I got depressed as my 172 seemed to be a black hole for money! :-( I ended up selling it and running a 1.2 corsa.
Just bought my self a 172 cup now that im earning more cash and also have some savings.
IT would be...
No one can say for certain what will happen, but if they got your plate number then there was no need for them to stop you.
Im sorry to say but it was a really bad idea not to stop. If you consider the worse case sceniro for both situations i would take 3 points and a fine over a court...
Hi guys,
Sold my 172 and im looking for a nice 172 cup.
Seen some wild variences in prices, what can i expect to pay for a 172 cup with less than 30k on the clock? 2002 or 2003.
Is one with air con worth a lot more?
Thx for any help.
I think the price reflects the risk involved. I mean if this was a striaght car it would be worth 9k+
I dont know anyone who knows a 182 inside out. Any volenteers in the Worksop region?

its this one. Is it a good deal??
Hi guys been a while since i posted on here.
Im going to visit a 182 cup on Wednesday this week and it is an insurance write off that has been fully repaired.
Its only done 8000 miles and the guy only wants £5.5k for it! The interior is un-marked and there are no scratches.
Its on an 2005...
Welcome mate, if you wanna spend an extra 3k on two exhaust pipes get the 182, but if you wanna do some serious tuning get a 172 and use the money you save to tune!
The lady i bought it off said that she wanted the top spec clio with leather, 16" alloys and AC, and the only way to get all of the above was to buy a 172.
She sold it beacuse she was expecting a 3rd child and didnt have the room.
Took her ages to take out all her cuddly toys from the back...
Hello Noddy,
I have a beautiful 172 that is in excellent condition, took me a long time to find it. It has been owned by a lady for 99% of its time and used as a family run around. It is fully loaded with every toy!
Here are some more details, call or text me if your interested:
The car...
I had a pug 205 Diesel for 2 years, not one thing went wrong and they do 60mpg.
Mega cheap to run and you can pick one up with no MOT for £150-250 or a good one for £500.
They look much better than cheekychento.
Fuel economy
leather coming off steering
high cost of wear and tare ie: £400-600 for cambelt
heavy clutch in standing traffic
AC with a mind of its own
auto lights
auto wipers
the constant feeling its gonna breack in to 5.6 billion bits..lol
Getting rid of it now!
Are you earning 11-12k after tax? I can't see how you can live on 8-9k a year if you have to include your morgage.
The average person spends £2190 on food year, £800 on utility bills, around £1000 on council tax.
So that leaves you with about 4k or £80 a week to cover other hidden...
