New and i need help

[JayM]

Currently have a 57 plate fiesta Zetec S, looking to sell that and pick up a 55 plate Clio 182 with a cup pack ideally...around 6/7k...preferably less than 40,000 miles...

Im a member of zsoc.com and you were recommended to join so here i am.

Basically i dont know much about these cars what to look out for i.e good things/common faults/ltd. editions/modifactions to do, all that really, just some advice would be great on what id be able to get for my money?

Hope you can help. Thanks.

JayM

Welcome!! Your best bet is to pay the £5 joining fee and have a good look through the forum......

I did and learnt alot about them in a very short space of time! There are loads of useful guides etc! worth the £5 in my opinion!
good luck!

Welcome, you should be able to get a good example for your budget mate, the 182 prices have been falling like nobody's business recently.

As said, far too much info to provide in just one post, but if you become a member then there's some great info and guides available to you.

Buy private, there are plenty out there for well under 7k with 30k or so on

Welcome

Have you considered a 172 or even stretching to a trophy ?

Stretch to 7.5k and your in Trophy country, more than worth the stretch.

At that sort of age mate it's going to cost a fair whack unfortunately.

Try Admiral, Bell or Elephant, but I think you'll find they'll only insure above a certain age...
