Noob from Glasgow

[Bryan1]

Hi, names Bryan and I'm currently looking for a mint clio 172/172cup.

Im finding it hard to find the right car as there is a lot of rough examples around. I have viewed a few but haven't seen "the one" yet.
If anyone knows of, or can point me in the right direction of a tidy car for sale(preferably within central/west of scotland. May travel further for the right car.
Budget is 2k(ish).

Looking forward to getting involved!

Welcome along mate, you're aswell travelling for the right example if its the difference between a snotter and a good yin!

Where in Glasgow are you?

 

[Bryan1]

Yeah dont mind puting in some miles to find a nice car. Im in bishopbriggs.

 

[Bryan1]

Well......still on the hunt, have been to view a few now but still haven't parted with cash yet.
Another viewing tomorrow so fingers crossed its the one for me!

Welcome, mate! I'm only up the road in Balornock.

As Danny said, do a nationwide search on AT/PH and have a look at the 'For Sale' section on here.

Ive got a road legal Track Cup if you want a wee passenger ride in.

You'll need to pay your membership to see the 'For Sale' section.

Ooh had a wee hairy moment today when I left it a bit late on the brakes......need to get used to having no abs.
Hopefully the weather is a bit better tomorrow so I can give it a clean and get some pics.

Brakes? I don't use them..

 

[Bryan1]

[Bryan1]

​No mods as yet, taxed it and booked into painters next week to have the rear arch sorted.
