It's costing me £ 13.5k to change cars , including , paint £350, side skirts and spoiler £600 painted and fitted , Bluetooth £300, convenience pack £200
So i must of got £ 7.645 for the Clio on trade in , theres no way he gave me that, so he dropped the list price, or give the the...
If you are paying close to list price including your part ex, i would test drive all the other contenders in the class!
If you would have asked me a month ago what car do you want up to £20k i would have said the Megane in a second!
After test driving them , looking at resale value, build...
It's not gonna be as fun as a Clio , but you will gain in other area's and it will hold it's value better, and remap too 240bhp!
Putting 75k on a car is crazy in 3 years ( unless company car ) i'd buy some old dog to rack up the miles in!
Thats what i'm gonna do, just ordred the Cupra...
Ive just had a look on Autotrader and in the north west there is a hell of a lot of 182 going for 7-8k privet and trade , some with 22k on the clock!
Imo people bought them as a nice little nippy car, they are not car enthusiasts like us , so there just trying to shift them on and the market...
I got offerd 6.8k on a trade in for a Seat Leon Cupra today. That does seem the going rate, i don't think it'll get more than 7k .
I'm Going to another Seat dealer today, and what makes it worse is there are no deals on the Cupra whatsoever, they just can't meet demand!

Hang fire mate, i may be selling my BTB system very soon , it's less than 2 months old , comes with a life time guarantee!
There is only 11 made and there all SOLD , it's looking very likley they won't be making anymore!

i think i got 176.4 bhp on Pauls ego buster with inlets, ITG panel, RStuning remap, i got 160 ld of torque too!
Ive not been on for a bit , but since added a full BTB zorst , and i have a gdi decat to go on as well.
Good run all in all on THE BUSTER Lol

Had a test drive in a Focus ST today , it's not for me , but while i was there they asked if i wanted a price for my car................5.5-6k trade in!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad:
Black gold 182 with cup packs, 32k , 54 plate, mint inside and out apart from two small stone chips on the bonnet that have...
That's it tho Marie i have got it how i want it , and spent money that i won't get back , but i'm still not 100% happy with it for my day to day need's.
i don't want to s**g off the clio coz i love it, i'm just not in love with it! Lol
As it's still got a couple of months worth of warrenty...
Just been driving the wife's TT 225 Quattro a lot , even tho it's not as fun to drive or not as good feeling wise , day to day for my needs it's in a different class.
Pulling away at light's is so much better, squeeze the trigger and your off coz of the torque, no more labouring in 3 rd or 4th...
I know what your saying , i would sell to autotrader/trade in std , but do you not think someone off here would not want to buy it , with the mod's on so they don't have to mess around getting it done/paying a garage to do it ect , ect?
£ 300 remaps a gonner right a way?
Other stuff too...
Thinking ( just thinking ) of selling up, do i put the car back to std or try and sell with the mod's on?
Would it be better to hold out for my right price from someone off here as is, or mess about putting it back to std to chop in or autotrader, then sell off the bit's? more messing about...
Has Paul at RStuning got the new rollin road site up and running yet?
He's not doing RR runs at the garage anymore, too much noise so he is taking the RR out of town!

Thick question , i recived my 1 years no claims bonus from my old insurance company for my old car.
Can i take the no claims bonus to a new insurance company to prove that i have been claim free for the past 12 months?
Or does it become void when i changed cars/insurance companys?
Thanks...
True , but unless your gonna track the car you won't even notice, and with Pro's you get minimal to no drop!
So it's looks vs handling, or upgrade to some decent coilovers and get both?
leon
It depends on what you use/want the car for, most of the time i'm in the car it's to get from A-B , so the Meg would be the better smoother drive!
With high leavels of torque and a turbo i think you would have more fun day to day in the Meg.
£400 will give you 260-70 BHP, and they look so...
