My old car

[MIKE3]

Just to let people know as I have now sold my clio that it is here on Autotrader (at a dealers who I have no connection with.) As I won't be on the forum much I thought I'd let people know it's a straight car, cambelt, aux belt dephaser pulley done in February '11 by Renault specialist in Barnsley as well as new rear discs/bearings /pads. Brake pedal switch changed, new front lambda sensor, recently refurbed wheels by Metal magic in Barnsley (very good reputation.) It has a Scorpion cat back system but other than that it's standard. I don't mind any questions via E-mail and I will be honest of course (not that the trader will as he seemed ok to me.) Thanks.

agreed if i know what they got it for = good bargaining weapon!

 

[gti6steve]

nice example that why get rid?

 

[MIKE3]

Well that's the odd thing, I kept getting offered between £1800 and £2200 part ex but given the price of the car I bought he has given me £2800. Condition is very good, there is one scratch on the door pillar and a bit of a mark on the front bumper but they're both small marks really. The wheels are like brand new and I forgot to mention that it has a re-trimmed wheel by the guy on here and I swapped the dash inserts for the 172 carbon silvery looking ones.

I got rid because I never really got on with the car, although it did everything you want a car to do really, it was fast practical and reliable it wasn't really me. And I'm having a mid life crisis so bought a soft top!

hmmmm im tempted

 

[Nick r26r]

does seem a great price even that the trader is selling it at , depending on the mark up they made on the car they sold to you i bet someone could take it away for the price you sold it to them for , bonus that the belts have been done as well that will save someone £600 or so

 

[withoutabix]

got both cup packs?

 

[MIKE3]

No cup packs I'm afraid. I was shocked that he has put it on so cheap as I thought he would put it on at nearer £4000 and expect to get knocked down. I think I got a bargain too with the car I bought so it's all a bit strange.

Which Renault place in Barnsley did you use? Just out of interest

 

[MIKE3]

TCS on Wakefield road. His garage doesn't look much but we've used him for years and he is a decent bloke.

Nice one, i've noticed it a few times when i've passed down there. Cheers.
