Lol at Firedance orange.
Cup splitter is missing, reanult badge is in wrong place and has chavy tints and they've not even cleaned it, for that i wouldn't give it a second glance.


Looks like the standard exhaust to, if so at that age/millage will need replacing. No mention of service history or owners either.

What about this?

Looks good, no mention of cambelt, and the fron bumper has been resprayed/replaced at some point.

Might have same problem with the exhaust to.

 

[adam248]

how will you know about the exhaust? any points to check?

 

[DrR]

Just check if it's stainless, will be obvious if it's rotted away.

 

[adam248]

yeah will do i had a look at the car about a month back will have a trip up and have anothe look

he wouldnt shift from the 4300 though withe no cambelt change, didn't notice the bumper though,

how much are cambelts typically?

Cambelt and Aux belt from a trader on here with a car with aircon is circa £500 plus an extra 200ish if dephaser needs doing as well

Have a look through media threads on here, its obvious when standard exhaust mounts are knackered as the exhaust sags low

shameless plug for my media pics, but if you look at mine they are relatively new and sit in the bumper http://www.cliosport.net/forum/show...us-essay-content-you-have-been-warned!)/page2

Keep an eye on the for sale threads on here, you'll pick up one in good condition with belts for 4k if you are patient... Patience is the best advise I could give someone looking to buy as I jumped into my purchase. But infernos are few and far between

If that has not had the belts done then you are basically looking at a £4800 car which I don't think it is worth, for that money your looking at a mint 182 with FSH, belts,well looked after and potentially decent mods in the for sale threads on here. If the belts have been done then if you like it then it wouldn't be the worst buy in the world, but for the money I think there is better out there for that price if you can be flexible on the inferno colour?!

But obviously buy what you want and don't settle for anything else if you are set on inferno... good luck with the hunt
