I've got a few 182's and Steve is right, good ones still fetch £3500. I won't be selling mine for a penny less!
The market is flooded with crap though. 100k plus, 5 owners, sketchy history, only one key.... It's just junk now.
The same as all walks of life, you get what you pay for.
It's got nothing to do with being bullied, it's to do with morals amongst 'friends' supposedly all doing this series for the same reasons; cheap Motorsport. It would be a sad shame if after season 1 a lot of people leave because of one or two assholes that see fit to cheat or bend the rules.
And at that point I will be off. As soon as people start cheating, I will no doubt end up in the back of a police car again once I've smashed their teeth out then I'll go and find somewhere else to race.
People cheating/spending £15k on a car for this series sounds like a 15 year old going to...
If you 'have the budget' then why not race in a better series, with tony ash and Ian instead of polluting the pool of people that just want cheap racing?
Why? It's such a stupid thing to worry about. If you don't like new car depreciation, don't buy a new car! And if you haven't bought a new car, why are you worrying about it??
IME driving a brand spanking new car off a forecourt (my Audi and my 200) is the best feeling ever. No bogeys under the...
Your car won't be worth £9k in 4 years time!
When I worked at Renault (a 'better' brand?) we were selling new good spec Laguna II's for £23k. Taking them in px three years later for £8k, retailing them back out for £9999.
If we've got to have a full working dash in the regs, are there not cheaper cage options without a screen bar? I'd rather buy a cheaper cage and add bars in other areas.
So a Qashqai/juke is £3k more expensive to buy but then it will depreciate approximately 8 billion times slower than a Dacia.
I'm not knocking you for buying one, but your justification is weak dear boy!
I actually think it looks ok for the money.
I found yard is the best but I use it all the time and buy in bulk.
For ease of purchasing and for a one off thing, I'd just buy some Autoglym stuff from halfords.
I'm gutted I just spent a load of money on one of the 182's. it would have been a perfect candidate!!
You watch all the cheap 172's start creeping up in price now!!
No. 2 of them are our track cars (too far gone for this) one is a 1.2, the other 182's have all had paintwork done to get them to retail standard. I'll be buying the roughest thing I can find for sub £500. The one we spoke about would have been absolutely perfect but Sods law I've just spent...
I didn't start the thread for no reason Majit!
I've just got off the phone to my mate, and we're in. I needed to check with him as he's buying his first house/settling down but there was no hesitation.
I'm going on holiday tomorrow but as soon as i'm back, I'll be selling all my clios (6 of...
