182, SQ7, Trafic
Just looked at the Advert on eBay and its possibly the worst sell ever. Why did you bid on that without even looking at it?!
I bought a car like that when I was young and wanted a valver, the thing nearly killed me when I crashed due to it being repaired badly but the car was unrecorded and had a dodgy ticket put on it (all of which I didn't know at the time)
Just walk away from it FFS and look for a minter

Its got history with it got the guy to email me pics of the history. Its got the past 4 MOT's serviced up to 46k at a stamped garage. not renault. Got a few recipts. Wheels not bothered about as i want a refurb in gloss black and ive got two sets in my shed of my meggie cab.
Dad won't travel to bristol hence why i wont take him. And ill get a little AA Certificate as peice of mind. So im already building more history as ill have noth belts done, new plugs oil and filters, new coil pack, Am basically going to start my own project if i do buy it. Either way some poor b*****d is going to get it so its better someone who knows their stuff gets it and can (IF it needs) fix it properly at cost price) If its beyond what i think is s**t then i'll pay the fees and leave it there simple as!

Why are you travelling 200 miles for this shed? Just say you're not coming and don't waste either of your times and money.
It needs a cambelt (£500ish), xenons (£200ish), refurb (£200ish) and that's just what you can see from the crap pictures.
Some poor b*****d doesn't have to be you. It's not an abused child! LOL

It may be bizarre but sometimes having a car is all that matters for some, especially those with little patience-

I don't mean to be rude, but you don't know your stuff. You didn't even know that lights were wrong, and that's something that is fairly basic.

please tell me after all the clearly consistent negative comments you are not going to actually part with cash too buy this car??
The one thing i will say about Cliosport.net is that its used by enthusiasts that know alot about car and more importantly clio's...
why not turn this disaster on its head and ask what you shud be buying and see what turns up.
the for sale section is probably a gud start by the way.

This thread is funnier every day. :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:
So, now on top of everything, you are spending money on an AA guy to tell you it's a piece of s**t. Well, infact he won't because as I've already said, only an RS enthusiast will identify all it's faults.
Betcha any money that the AA don't spot the headlight are wrong unless you tell him.
What are you going to do if he says it's a straight car, buy it lol?
If this car is a badun', it will always be so. but you know better than all us RS owners don't you. :banghead:
Door to door salemen must love you. I bet you have one of these don't you.

I thought that Daniel was going to look at this for you, or has he given up on you too.
P.S. This isn't aimed at making you look like a dick, I just want you to wake up!

This car sounds like a black hole of trouble/money waiting to happen to some poor unsuspecting mug. When you weigh up the cost off sorting it all out, it seems a no brainer that you'd be better off just setting your budget marginally higher and getting something half decent in the first place.
I think you're being naive if you disregard the general consensus of this thread and part with your hard earned monies on this car.:dead:

PMSL!! Another case of asking questions about something after you've bought it! Good luck with the shitter!

Title makes me laugh. Because he defends it now.
Thing is, it's been front ended and that's no doubt. Fact is if they fitted the wrong lights because it's cheaper what else have they skimped on.
I just got my 172 2 weeks ago. Black, FSH and 2 lady owners with cambelt etc all done and drives solid as. No sqeaks, no knocks with 82k on it for £2790. Higher mileage than some but drives so well compared to some 50k ones I couldn't care less.
Gotta ask yourself are you buying a project or are you after one that's up together? Seems a bit dumb if you ask me

People can be a bit harsh on here mate, but you get used to it, it's mostly banter anyway. Underneath it all we are genuinely trying to help, think you made the right choice walking away, it's worth waiting and finding "the right one" for your cash.
yes, it's written just up there ^ post 144
