Advice on this "MINT" 182.

[Paul.]

sell you a nice trophy lol

pm me











to the op - thats overpriced imo. I sold mine on 31k with all belts changed , coilys , miltek etc and immaculate paint for 7k

 

[JayR]

u not interested in selling yours? JayR?

Im always thinking about it mate but its a tough decision to make!

On one hand i quite fancy something like a 200 (which i dont really need) and on the other i have as nice a 182 as i will find that i have owned since practically new!

At the moment i would say no but i will keep you in mind fella.

 

[Jaws]

I'm not being funny here but those plates look photoshopped on. Are you sure that is actually his car?

 

[Šįk]

i think u should sell it, get a 200.. uno u want 2

 

[Poopensharten]

It depends what the bloke wants! Originally he wanted mint and that car at 70 odd k isnt going to be imo yet it is still comanding an high price as far as your average 182 gos!?

Put it this way mine has sat in the garage for practically the 4 years iv had it and coverd just 16k (its on just over 30k now), it is spotless and fully serviced (recent cambelt and auxillary belt) and i was told by Renault when i was looking at trading it in it book value was under 6k! They were willing to offer 6.2k and then upped it to 6.5k which i probably wouldve copped elsewhere had i traded it in for the 200!

These cars will go for whatever someones willing to pay for them but i would always want low miles personally.

Aye but if the price difference was nearing 2k just because it has still less than average miles on it then id be thinking twice of it...

Cars are built to be driven and enjoyed, a hot hatch, even more so...!

Keep in mind these are 5-6 year old cars now and buying them much like a lottery you get lucky or not.

If its going to break its going to break nothing you can do will change it!

Like you say though it really depends what your after

you missed the best one for sale on here....

See although i agree to some extent i dont!

I commute via train by the day so dont use my car until the weekend at best however if i was using it everyday i do wonder whether after four years ownership whether it would put the same smile on my face when i do take it out on a summers afternoon!? I doubt it very much!

They are the best of every world these cars! They are cheap, fast, fun and economical in pretty much every respect and as iv said before if they get looked after they dont (or rarely) break anyway in my exp.

I roll in my hilux mon-fri most weeks. This keeps the 172 fun and quick for the weekends/ evenings.

LOL @ the miles make it quicker myth! As far as im concerned Fletch it is just that and a mental one at that!

Its horses for courses really! I dont think i would enjoy mine as much if i drove it daily! Infact i think it would be long gone by now!

 

[saltyhair81]

Whats wrong with the mileage...?

Its under average and the belts have been done...! People get the impression cars in an exclusive colour should be stored under a blanket!

Id rather one thats been used so that anything that will break has broke and now been replaced!

Indeed, don't see why people are flapping about the mileage it's a bit gay really.

Mate the engines do get faster, the more miles they do [FACT]

[TimR26]

I'd have bought that. Number plate alone is worth about £700 to £1000.
