when we took it for a test drive there was 4 of us in the car an extra wheel and half a tank of petrol, the guy driving did put his foot down but he didnt push it too its limits and i was holding on for my life lol
with me in that car on my own loosing all that extra weight, i think il be quite happy with the performance
i also intend to be careful

Hes not picked it up yet flol
Clio 182 FF
Sounds mint and a good find, however I do agree with the previous comments about its prolly quite tight and not even run in yet!
Also regardless of milleage the belts will due as its now 5 years old!
Another thing that would concern me is that its only ever been used for short journeys and not really been warmed up, I know the cosequence of this as my mum has a 53 plate ST170 which hasnt even done 15k miles !
Pics will be good!

The tighter the better iirc

it has been, indoors, undriven for three years
Won't it be s**t if it hasn't been driven for 3 years?
H&R + Pole Position'd Cup
My car was left alone for 3months and had a little sulk. When I came back to start it, it needed new HT Leads, coil pack, new battery and an injector replacing :/ Low miler too as it had only just turned 30k the start of this year (53 plate). It was being started every so often too to try keep it ticking over

I'd be getting them done too, 6000 miles or not - age comes in here.
What not even moved ?? Did they store it properly ?
It's going to ned a good going over if it's not been driven in three years.

Nice!
Although lack of Cup Packs makes it worse. But you're sorting that.
Look after it!

Gah!
Extra weight and the incovenience of zero boot space? Get that spare ditched - that's what mobile phones are for.
"Help, I've fooked my tyre"
Only ever had one tyre issue in 17 years - which luckily only blew about 2 miles from home. Crawled back and got a replacement the following day. No need to carry a spare in a 182, imo.

Same here. Two spares in the shed, useless foam crap in the car.

I always carried a spare in the 182, the consequences of missing a days work because of a flat would be too much.

Its not been in storage for the last 3 years it has been driven for the last year and has done around 7.5k so i wont need any work.The camblet is 5 years or 40k iirc??so yes he should get that sorted but doubt he will.

Why was it in storage at all? Not getting the belts done would be very silly.

The first owner went to jail so it was kept by the police for 3 years then sold to this old couple.

Right heres how it goes....
All being well the car should be with me within the next 24 hours. I have the money and should be collecting it from the owner tommorrow. So there will be pictures up as soon as i have it.
The life of the car: 1st owner had the car for 256 miles and went to prison, the police seized the car for three years. After 3 years a 45 year old man bought if for his 45 year old wife... who has increased the milage to 8,300.
The car is in absolutely perfect/mint/pristeen condition, inside and out, even under the bonnet. Its an 04 reg and i payed £5000 for it, it comes with a parrot blutooth handsfree kit (£400) which will be up for sale and a brand new spare which will be going in the garage ive been in the car and its as tight as anything, its just like a brand new car.
I will probably get the belts done but it wont be straight away! The car WILL NOT be chaved up at all, and i will be looking after it more than i have anything before.
The only downside to the car is that there is no splitter (big suprise) lol and i want to replace the spoiler for a cup one.
The car has been fully vailted polished wheels sparkling and waxed (not that it even needed it) and tbh i cant f**king wait...!!!
