Recently bought a 172 Cup & the previous owner has removed the spacers that sit under the front seats. While I get this is a common mod to do & get why people do this, I'm very keen on returning the car back to completely standard/as it left the factory (plus it's a pain in the ass how stiff...
Well I've just sold it and took £2900 for it so I wasn't too far off the mark with my valuation from the start! So to all you who said "£3000 is far too expensive, that's 182 money" etc etc.......:butt: :rasp:
I think you're getting a bit carried away now Daniel mate, stop stressing about it!! I was merely stating that not many RS Clio's, no matter what the price, seem to be selling at the mo, that's all :rasp:
That's a fair few more miles than mine's done though matey, surely that counts for alot having done over 21k miles less!! Anyway, I'm luckily not in a rush to sell so will just persevere with it and see if I get any interest at this price for now rather than being too hasty and just giving it away
It's a 172 (53 plate), but there are hardly any (if any at all!!) with as low mileage on as mine on Pistonheads, and there's a fair few with a lot more miles on than mine that are asking alot more than me aswell hence the reason I thought mine was priced about right??!!
I honestly thought I'd priced mine perfectly, completely standard bar a s/s exhaust, black, low owners, full service history, cambelt done, low miles (50k), £3000! Is that 'really' overpriced, surely not???
I bought my mates 172 off him a couple of months ago in part ex for my van with the sole intention of selling it on quickly, wish I hadn't bothered now, I only did it as a favour to him as he was deperate to buy my van! :(
Is it just me or am I right in thinking that Clio 172's/182's etc, aren't selling very well at the mo?? You can literally count on 1 hand the amount that are sold when searching through the first 12-13 pages on Pistonheads :S
Can somebody confirm for me if this is the correct fog lamp for my 2003/53 plate 172 Sport?? :S http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190418074497&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT Emailed the seller asking if he knows, but not having much joy in getting a response from him!! :mad:
Phase 2 172
Been offered a 2003/53 plate 172 but what do you think is a fair price I should be paying for it? (been away from the Clio scene for a while so fallen a bit behind with what they're fetching nowadays :S)
It's black, fsh, completely standard apart from a s/s exhaust, and it's done...
Hi there, thanks for your help. My status isn't entirely true anymore if I'm completely honest as I have infact now sold my V6 on :( Here are some pics from when I did own it though
pm sent :cool:
Would anybody happen to know if the interior door handles are still available from Renault for a phase 1 172 as I've just snapped mine to pieces :mad: Had a quick look on ebay but all there seems to be on there are the grey/silver ones whereas I need a blue one...:S
Just removed the steering rack from my phase 1 172 and have discovered that the threads in one of the power steering pipe holes on the rack are a bit chewed up :( The pinion part of the steering rack (the part where all the power steering pipes screw into) can be separated from the rest of the...
The same hose has just sprung a leak on my g/f's phase 1 172 so I've just removed it (what a sh*te job that was :mad:) How much would I be looking at for a brand new replacement from Renault, do you know? All I can seem to find on here is prices for the longer high pressure hose which runs from...
WRONG!!! :lolup: It is infact a 2.1 litre engine in it running just over 280bhp at present. Soon to be fitted with a more suitable turbo though which should see the power raise above the 300bhp mark...:rasp:
