fantastic thats all i need and after he said that
he said but if you buy a 225 from us i could sort you out witha better price.....
im not too sure how good they........service intervals at every 20k and it is a reno???
what do you think?
Ditto!
Looked at swopping mine against an STi, got p/ex deals ranging from £9.75k to £10k
Cost me just over £13k in April (UK car with both cup packs, 8k miles) - thats £500 depreciation a month!
Privately you may get £10.5k up to £11k if youre lucky - its all the motorpoint ones new at £11,750 that do it I think!
dont mean to piss you off, but they are selling for about £10.500 on autotrader, they are quite a few more that have higher prices on them but they have been on for weeks and just arent shifting, i know coz was looking for ages and the same ones kept appearing, and even the cheaper ones didnt go, theres a few on here trying to sell them and theres just no interest.
i think its mainly due to the fact that you can pick up new ones for 11.5k
what do we all think to the 225???
apart from the back end?
No-one should be surprised at this. Yes its crap to lose so much on a car in such a short period, but you did buy a Renault. It may be the best hot hatch about but this is why when it comes to re-sale your CTR or VW GTI buyer is laughing. I know thats not why people buy 182s but its not shocking that you lose a packet on them when you come to get rid.
Agreed^^^
And all those who said get an official UK rather than import or motropoint because of resale must be feeling rather glum now. Id rather save the money in the first place and you would lose less in the long run.
Unless of course I am wrong and the imports are going for 8 or 9k which I doubt.

It probably would have made more sense to get an import… says me who has a UK one on order

Id buy one used without cup packs ...
You could say the majority of used 182s have the cup packs therefore there is greater choice and the buyer in the buyers market could afford to be a bit more choosey because there are more...but because they are more popular they would appeal to wider selection of buyers...
Then a non cup pack 182 would create less interest but as there is less choice it might sell ok because there is less choice and if someone like me wants one without the cup packs i couldnt afford to be as choosey.
There are pros and cons when owning both at selling up time im sure.
TBH i dont care too much because in my situation i didnt buy it with an eye on resales,i got mine to enjoy and thats what im doing.
I always part ex my cars anyway because im lazy and cant be arsed selling private,never get as much money to start with doing that but never have a problem getting rid ! There are lots of people who dont sell private so it wont be an issue for these and me.We get ripped off but try to get something back on the new car price.
So moral of the story is to lose least amount of money get one as cheap as possible, regardless of where from new. And if not bothered about cup packs then get an import or go to a supermarket. And if not getting a cup and keeping because its the car you want then can always add better suspension and alloys than a cup comes with.
Or keep a car for longer than this. Dont understand why peopel buy a car for a few months or a year as the depreceation you get is ridiculous.
Basically reno dont want your car coz they are only ever interested in new car sales figures, unless you were part exchanging it against a 225 for example they would offer you more for the 182 but theyd still make there money back through the finance
Id never buy a new car thats why i waited for the 182s to come out then bought a low milage Mk2 172 for 8k - youve just got to accept the depreiation is huge and try to buy accordingly, youre always going to loose money on cars it just the way it is

I doubt he will do much better against a 225, or even a 255.

Buying a new car then selling it after a few months is the easiest way to lose money known to man. Doesnt matter whether you buy from a supermarket or a dealer, youll lose.
Have a good think about what you want, buy one, and keep it for at least 2 years.
182 & LY Clio 220 ed
When a dealer says that youll get a better deal if......
Theyll usually adjust the APR to get it back outta you, so that it looks cheaper at a glance, but theyre screwin you for the money in the long run.
It could be worse though, if you had a car thats several years old, then youd get next to nothing out of a dealer, as most would auction it as trade which they would get next to nothing for.
yes well im going to get rid any way and go back to a CTR i think............
I got my 182 with cup packs in March/April brand new on 04 import! yes but there are very few it was the only one they had and was the same price as the non cup ones?? they havent had any since!!! maybe Im lucky?
Cup 172
telford_mike has hit the nail on the head. Any new car bar a very select few, or ones with a waiting list (which usually go hand in hand), lose alot of their depreciation in the first 12 months.
According to most information sources, CLIO 182s will be worth 50-55% of their list price after 3 years, but I would suspect that 30% probably goes in the first year alone!
My Dad has just bought a 6 month old 320d Sport in Estoril Blue. List price was £27,500, he has just paid around 22k. 5½ grand in 6 months!
If you plan on changing your car alot, then there is no point buying new. Buy a 12 month old one and sell it when 3 years old.
Thats not a bad deal but whats the insurance like on one of those for you?
how old are you?
Golf Mk6 Oil Burner
Totally agree. Buy a new car and sell it within 6 months and ur going to loose a shed load.
Going to try and hang on to mine until warranty is nearly out (March 07). Hopefully get 5-6k for it and then order clio 200 (if reno pull their finger out and give us what we want!)
