Buy a phase 1 Vee for more than they cost new.

It's not even low mileage really. Plus all the talk about the interior etc, but no pictures.
It's had more owners than mine too :wink:

 

[N4TH4N]

Nice cars but 28k..... really?

 

[Matt W]

Only a few years ago these phase 1's were £6k!

Hmm, for a completely ropey one that needed about £3000 spending on it. Sensible folk didn't sell theirs during the recession.

Even if it needed £6k spending on it, that's looking like a good ROI from where I'm sitting!! Plus you'd (not you specifically because you have one) have had a v6 for the past 8 years lol.

I hear you, but they have to sell it for that sort of price though. Even now most Phase 1's are about £13k (well usually on PH, when they come up)

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

True that, maybe chancing it after seeing silly priced Ph2s (albeit with no miles and rare colours)

I think so. To get any real money like that, it needed to have been on like 3000 miles, not 22000 (imo)

Here is one for £45K

[CrippsCorner]

That's a ropey advert too. Coilover suspension... yeah mine too, cost me £300.

Electric Recaros... but no pictures.

Formal valuation letter by the owners club at £50,000.00 when it says above that the owner of the club is the owner of the car lol.

 

[Bear Head]

The above car is a forum members car chaps

And seen more coats of polish than anything

 

[Addicted]

Oh wow didn't expect that to be up for sale.

 

[Matthew]

f**king hell the asking prices on these are going up like a Saturn 5 rocket.

It's the old saying though isn't it, it's only worth what someone is prepared to pay for it.

Just because a car is advertised at that price, doesn't mean it will sell for that price.

That Ph1 is about £10k too much though IMO.

Mace sold his. Silly boy.

 

[Knuckles]

Ah, I heard the deep bronze one was up for sale.

I'm surprised dawn hasn't snapped his hand off for it yet

 

[Jack!]

Mace sold his. Silly boy.

Mace was too busy looking after penguins to have any knowledge of the strength of the economy at the time.

Remember reading that and having a laugh myself and thinking who would write that when they themselves probably wrote that letter.

 

[Matthew]

£50k for a clio (v6 or not) smells like someone has smoked too much gear.

 

[Jekyll]

Isnt that @Dash one?

I know mate I remember he had it your old place for £10k or something like that.

 

[mossyv6]

Isnt that @Dash one?

Correct

 

[mossyv6]

And for people interested in the price of V6's there is another v6 currently for sale at 50k

 

[Addicted]

And for people interested in the price of V6's there is another v6 currently for sale at 50k :wink:

For sale though, not sold right?

Either way, the one above is one of a kind, I'd be surprised if it didn't go alot more than the rest imo. It's a beautiful colour in the sun.

 

[mossyv6]

For sale though, not sold right? :smiley:

For sale:

[Bear Head]

@mossyv6 that car is amazing, I never knew such a thing existed! The car really in its infancy there!

The owner of the car does not do the valuations.

 

[brisa4984]

Crikey. Mental actually. Mental that owners think they have the ascending potential similar to a gt3 rs 4.0. Valuations by a club?! You serious? Do people not see the bias? As for the best v6 on show... What If second place was a pig?

 

[Addicted]

Those Club valuations are a load of b****cks flol that's some proper tryhard/wannabe elitist s**t there, it's a Clio v6 ffs. I'm surprised it wasn't on the Trophy forum

 

[brisa4984]

Imagine explaining the valuation to your insurer. I'd like 50k back please because my car friends said so.

 

[V6Dan]

I think that there was around 30 vees at origine rs where it won that trophy. I'm pretty sure that I've seen it with a trophy for best car on a clio sport stand at a French car show as well.
The car is unique and there is not another like it and I doubt a serious buyer will purchase it on that advert. They would head over to another forum where they would find all the information they would want.
The car maybe priced ambitiously in some people's eyes but as said in many threads it's worth every penny of what the right person is willing to pay. I just hope if it does sell it still gets used as it really is a lovely car and I enjoy seeing it as do many others.

The valuations offered by the club have always been bang on in my eyes and are done by someone that knows a lot more about clio v6s than I do or most people will ever know. Prices in the UK are still cheaper than some on the continent so maybe they will rise a little more yet

 

[Matthew]

I don't want to offend anyone with a V6 but if I had £50k to spend on a car, a clio wouldn't even be on my top 1,000 list.

£20k maybe but so so so many better cars out there than a two seat clio.

If you had £50k to invest though.....

But some sort of old Ford is fair game?

 

[Matthew]

I wouldnt spend it on a ford either for what it's worth.

 

[Jack!]

What I was getting at is you can't de-value it just because it's a two seater Renault... But yet many (not you specifically) see an old Ford such as an RS200 as worth every penny just because it's a Fast Ford, not a Renault.

The 205 T16 is just a two seater Peugeot, but they're selling for well over 100k.

Not sure a V6 is worth 50k at this moment in time, but mint PH2's in good colours will be worth well over 50k in 10 years.
