Martin bought this for a grand iirc, was selling for 1750ono. It's near me would be tempted if price was right, circa 1250 IMO as belts/ dephaser and service will be circa £500, then wheel refurb £250...

 

[imprezaworks]

Expensive as it is.

 

[dangerous dave]

Until it becomes a sellers market, that's expensive.. I've seen better sell for under £1800 with belts done and no one I know would pay over £1000 for anything needing that work with that mileage...

Id give £800 or less because of potential work.

 

[Martin_172]

2k jesus, yeah I paid £970 for it then sold it on for £1500, it's a brilliant wee car for under £1500, I put a wee bit of cash into it and it's a good spec

 

[yeecup]

He's dropped it to 1500, maybe he read this thread lol. Need to factor belts/dephaser/ water pump immediately though.

so i buy it, spend £600-700 on belts and am left with a 130k car for £2200 lol.. There's 70k cars out there for that money privately.. I know mileage isn't everything, but the other 90% of buyers find it hugely important. I doubt I could get £2500 for the 182 on my drive with 67k no previous owners, belts done last this year.

It's £1700 if the belts are done.. Maybe

Dead money in that deal

 

[yeecup]

I. Agree . I'd pay a grand for it. Costs 500 for belts dephaser and water pump at clioturbo.

 

[yeecup]

I'll wait and see if he drops price again. Bad time of year to sell a motor

 

[RichieJA]

At least he is being honest in the ad

 

[Martin_172]

mileage aside, as I said above its a proper minter in the flesh, I bought it blind on eBay and couldn't believe my eyes when I got it home and saw it in the sunlight the next day!!

 

[yeecup]

Well he's 're listed it at 2k Ono. Lol. He now states belts are due but not a big deal. Classic

 

[imprezaworks]

Not really a big deal if you don't care

 

[dangerous dave]

So sorted it's a £2700 car...


Mmmmmkay

 

[Stefan.]

Its a 1k car tops as it stands

 

[Martin_172]

I'd pay upto 1400-1500 max if I was on the look out for a good base of a cup

 

[yeecup]

I'd be scared to drive it at all due to the 7 year old belts and pulleys . I like how he states cups are £2500 in England.......like his is a bargain. It's done 130k and needs an outley of circa £550 immediately.

 

[Martin_172]

i was going to get the belts done as soon as i got it up the road and took it easy the full way up, then I kicked its f**king head in for nearly a year on they belts, its sound hahah!

"Never raced or rallied" My belts snapped on my ph1 and they were only 4yrs old. With my luck it would break on the way to swr to get them done.....
