How much did you pay for yours?

[Marty]

Hi guys...im new on here...just going to pick up my 182 on sunday. Its second hand (05 plate) only got 12,000 on the clock. Im getting it from a dealer on finance. It was originally being sold for 12k but has been dropped down to 8995 because it wasnt selling. So on finance im paying 248 a month which includes the first years road tax and total loss cover for the whole 4 years of which im paying it over.

Has anyone had any better deals?? Also on insurance ive got a quote for 1341 pounds which im gunna pay annualy. Im 21 and have 3 years no claims with pass plus. What do peeps think???

Cheers

Insurance seems alrite, Car is a little expenxive at 9k, would hope it has both cup packs and the paint and interior is spotless for that price.

 

[C.J]

Wow, 9k seems a lot.

Got a web link?

 

[Griff]

Way over priced.

Car aint to bad from a dealer but your paying to much for insurance in my opinion, my insurance was nealry half that at 21 with 0NCB.

Could probably get that car private for £7.5-8k

Paid £8k for my inferno with 12k on 3 months ago

£12k was taking this biscuit!

 

[Timmay]

dealers will always be more expensive

theres a nice 55 plate inferno near me for 8999 - got 9700 miles on it.

Was told to be quick as it would be snapped up - lol that was 4 weeks ago

 

[Bazzon]

Imo the insurance isnt to bad, im 20 with years NCB and i pay that, dont forget insurance sways ALOT on postcode + job titles

 

[karlktm]

ya can get a 197 for £10k....

obviously more miles but i know what id have

 

[DrR]

Remember he's getting it for £9k interest free, which is about the same as someone paying £7.7k then paying 7.9% interest over 4 years on the loan.

Got my numbers from Tesco loans.

Sounds pricey. Enjoy!

Thats not bad for insurance tbh. My quotes were about that when I looked at getting one at 21.

 

[Goders172]

£248 a month for 4 years is £11,900 sounds quite expensive to me tbh

 

[Big Iain]

400 quid a month to drive a 182 sack that!

I bought a 55 plate 182 that was minter than mint this time last year for £8900 from a reno dealer too! ok I only got 4.8k for my 02 172 trade in but imo still a good deal! That car is way too dear even at 9k

infernos always go for more we all know that!

 

[Scottland]

As above, seems over priced and that's a lot of interest on finance, that's about £1000 more in interest than an equivalent bank loan which wouldn't be secured against the car.

Insurance seems expensive, but could be down to your area. Give greenlight a try, they were great for me.

 

[sh33n]

12k for a 182?

Couldn't you buy them new for that?

 

[*Badger*]

I'm picking up a 182 with 20k on tommorow, both cup packs, for less than 7 grand

 

[Steve2004]

Insurance seems a bit high, but not too bad I guess. Depends a lot on what your post code is.

What you paid for the car is shocking though, massively overpriced IMO.

 

[benmore]

I paid 4650 for my monaco 172 ff, on 46-47k, with a years mot and tax, full service history (non renault and the aux belt was NOT done on 36k), so I had the belts done, and that cost 570, so all, to have it in good condition engine wise, it cost me over 5k.

the body needs 2 small parking dents removing and if you were being fussy the bonnet and front bumper need blowing over to rid it of the stone chips.

apart from that, it had a broken lower fog light lense (crack only), and the wheels have some minor kirbing on random ones.

I did realise shortly after I may have got a better one for the money, but this was totally standard, looks in good condition, interior is spotless, 5th alloy spare etc etc all the original paper work so, just went for it.

also the owner was a nutcase at washing it weekly, sometimes more, done it properly and looked after it with all new tyres when I bought it.

insurance is (yes I know) 1700 at nearly 20 full comp own name.

 

[Ian_182]

I paid 10600 for mine brand new

Where did he say it was interest free? Thought 0% was only on new cars...


Anyway he's bought it now, don't make him feel bad.

I always say, it doesn't matter what you paid for a car or how good you think the deal is, some smug fcuker will always have paid less for theirs.

 

[stooby]

With the car market as it is I think its way overpriced.

 

[Charlieboy]

In 2004 I paid 10995 for my "53" plate 172 cup with 6600 miles.

3 weeks ago i was in the same position as you:

I brought 182 05 from a dealer, racing blue, 10,500 miles, both cup packs, recarros for 7K.

Im 21 with 1years NCB and i pay £1353 on insurance with a previous drink driving ban with Tesco.

Hope that gives you an idea.

 

[dan_88]

insurance is a bit high imo. im 20 with 3 years ncb and pay around £1080 fc in my own name
