Looking for the right Clio

[Dodgy911]

Hi I’m new to this sight and thinking of buying a 182 I’ve spotted a local one with 107k with oil changes every 6k are these good for the mileage plus I would like to fit a smaller aftermarket steering wheel on what would be recommended for the 182 and best place to purchase

Belts, belts, belts.

 

[bloke]

Braces, braces, braces.

 

[Dodgy911]

Belts were done at 74k in 2014

 

[RMDavis]

Belts were done at 74k in 2014

That makes the belts 4 years old bud.

They need to be changed without fail every 5 years or 72k whichever occurs first!

 

[Dodgy911]

Yes the owner said they were due June 2019

 

[imprezaworks]

What’s the price?

 

[Dodgy911]

£1700 on a 04 he’s owned for past 7 years

 

[imprezaworks]

Standard?

 

[Dodgy911]

Scorpion cat back and slightly lower springs plus it’g filter, power flex dog bone, rs tuner map and samco intake hose

 

[jonno_c]

You can have mine for £1900, belts done this year and an absolute s**t ton of receipts. 4 owners, me now twice as I sold it to my sister, (don't ask!).

Although mine is not actually for sale l would sell it for the right offer, which would be much less than l have spent on it.
I live near to Stockport and you can look st my posts to see the history/photos of my car.
It was bought as a temporary car for my missus while we waited for delivery of her VW Up GTi but l liked the Clio so much l have kept it.
But l now have four vehicles and it’s getting a bit out of hand

 

[Dodgy911]

Is it the silver one I spotted in one of your threads

 

[imprezaworks]

Will be the rb?

Got a 2 owner cup coming in this week. 85,000 miles.

Could you let me know a price please and if you have anymore details that would be great as on the lookout for a cup aswell. Cheers

No mine’s Racing Blue and is in pretty much perfect condition inside and out

 

[bloke]

Will let you know, should be getting it tomorroe evening then for mot in the week.

 

[Landyman]

Oh l thought that was addressed to me!! But it seems not, sorry.

 

[Dodgy911]

You’ll want top money then for your car if it’s perfect

 

[Landyman]

No, l know that these cars have limited value no matter how good they are.
It won’t be £2,000 but it won’t be £5,000 either.

 

[Dodgy911]

What mods has it got or is it standard, just curious

 

[Landyman]

What, mine? Best to look at my postings and you will find it all there.
It’s just had a fully rebuilt gearbox, new clutch, cam belt water pump aux belt, and an aircon overhaul with a new condenser.
It’s on Eibach springs and Cup dampers with an induction kit and Janspeed exhaust.
The engine and geometry have been set up properly and it’s got four new tyres. I’ve spent £600 on detail items such as new plastic parts new pedal covers new seat base new gear lever etc.
It passed the MOT last week with one advisory for slight play in a ball joint (since replaced)
There are no dents or scratches on the bodywork and the underneath has been waxoyled including inside the sills.
There’s a folder of receipts and history showing thousands spent by myself and recent previous owners.

I really decided to keep this car, but as with all the cars l have owned l will sell if a fair price is offered.

 

[Dodgy911]

Mileage and owners ?

 

[STEVE.M]

No, l know that these cars have limited value no matter how good they are.

Bloody well should be £5k.

Then you could buy a 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth, that is still in depreciation, and needs money thrown at it.

Spell checker offered defecation as an alternative too.

 

[Landyman]

These cars are at the bottom of their price curve at the moment.
They can only go one way from here, once the modern classics market wakes up to them.
I don’t think they will go the way of the Williams, R5 Turbo or 205 GTi and get really expensive but prices will eventually rise.

 

[Landyman]

Mileage and owners ?

Mileage under 100,000
Owners well the last three were enthusiasts on here and spent a fortune on it.
Why not come and have a look at it? You don’t have to buy it, l am not bothered either way as l love the car.

 

[Dodgy911]

Have you got any pictures as I can’t seem to find any on your posts

 

[Landyman]

 

[Dodgy911]

Looks nice

 

[Landyman]

It is nice

[Dodgy911]

Ouch big bills hey
If you had a rough price that would help but I understand that you aren’t sure or not to sell

 

[imprezaworks]

Very tidy

[Landyman]

Come and see the car if you are interested in it.
