Racing Blue 182's getting hard to find a good one...

[imprezaworks]

Christophers old RB, nothing great has changed since buying, bar new rear number plate light, OE airbox and inlet elbow

What sort of money?

 

[jenic]

If anyone wants a car then put up a wanted, if anyone is selling one then put up a for sale.

Just stop trading in here!

 

[imprezaworks]

sorry. X

Always good to know there's still a market for well looked after RBs. The cheaper they get the more are going to end up being ruined as well.

Don't get a cup mate, I really miss the climate, xenons, and auto lights on the trophy, on a cup you don't even have the recaros or suspension to make up for it.

I nearly got a RB cup when I was selling my Megane, was a nice one but just couldn't be doing with the poverty spec.

Lol that's the exact reasons that put me off getting a Trophy. Once you've had them it's hard to go back...

 

[Bluebeard]

If you've got a well looked after Full fat racing blue or liquid yellow, you will always be able to ask top money for it.

They are the two most sought after colours and lets be honest, finding a Renault Clio thats been looked after properly and not smashed around a council estate is getting more and more difficult.

 

[Matthew]

Something like that would do you.

I definatly want it back Chris...

 

[jenic]

I'll buy it off you Matt when you inevitably resell it

It'd be nice if "top money" bottomed out soon.

Christopher's was a bit of a bargain imo.

Deal. Need to buy it first...

Love RB with stripes. Best colour in the 182 in my opinion.

Words like that, make me want to stop using my 59,000 mile one as a daily

Re: Racing Blue 182's geeting hard to find a good one...

Racing blue 182's have been getting harder to find over the last 12-18 months

They have probably taken over from the LY in terms of popularity-- it also seems the cups outweigh the FF for sale- I cant be ar$ed to look at the amount sold but it always seems 1:4

They do pop up from time to time- I sold a mint one last year with recaros- I havent seen a decent one since...
S

and it still is mint

 

[Matthew]

They are out there, but alot are less than mint shall we say?

 

[B19WAW]

not for sale lol 42k...well looked after....

 

[VR46-G@Z]

This is music to my ears as I've quite recently acquired a mint RB Gotta say it's the best car I've owned yet, so much fun and to be fair turns a lot of heads!

 

[Aaron182.]

I'm now worried I've got a bad RB as I only paid 2900 :/

 

[davo172]

Cerrones is the beat I have seen

 

[Bobby.]

Good luck with the search mate.

 

[roberto.]

Mine will be on turinis soon, not selling it though. Too awesome! And the poverty spec has been upgraded...

 

[Chapppers11]

You think depreciation on a RB 182 is bad...

 

[alex-avfc]

Just get a slightly rough round the edges one and tidy it up?

 

[Matthew]

Yeah that's not a problem, it's finding one with an actuall service history which is hard.

You'd be supprised how many say FSH in the advert and on closer inspection, are far from it!

 

[v15ben]

I miss mine sometimes.
Sold it in August 2010 with 80k miles.
It was a bit rough around the edges though.
Probably dead by now!

FSH is only a service every 2 years and the belts though you know

 

[Aaron182.]

I got mine with full dealer service history. To this day I'm convinced it's fake haha

 

[Matthew]

Been serviced?

Yeah, it has...

Stamps/receipts..?

No, sorry..

 

[Matthew]

Well, no longer looking for one

 

[Brookie.]

Managed to find one then mate? Or settled for something else?

 

[Matthew]

Managed to find one mate.

Clio number 3, RB number 2!

Glutten for punishment.

 

[Brookie.]

Good news! Hopefully it's a good one.

Get some photos/details up when you get chance.

 

[Matthew]

Yeah I will do mate, got a 2 week wait though.

Our current car is going in the body shop to get a dent out before its sold

Cant beleive I'm getting another, never say never!

 

[Y7 ADW]

Mine has nearly reached the 95k mark Not very mint at the minute with the plastics needing sorting but once they are sorted and the wheels are refurbed it should be back to how it looked last summer
