f**k me the hillclimb car is hardly anything amazing, probably 45% higher than it should be

£5k+ for a 51 plater? errrr??? seriously

 

[alanc1000]

still lots of unrealistic 172 owners out there unfortunately, thats what happens with enthusiasts cars, people list them high.

 

[mr angry]

Wow, they will be for sale for a while. I have my one owner 53 plate 172 55,000miles in for 3500 ono for 5 days in autotrader and all I have had is chancers from Nigeria!

 

[JD]

You can pick up a lot more for 6k than an old flamer.

This forum is amazing for it.

Look in the cars for sale section! Its rammed with over priced cars. (Some comically so!) Yet when a newbie posts sayin ''Just bought a 182 for £5500'' all the CS lot slate him telling him they could have bought one a lot cheaper!

You can't win!

lol - at the end of the day if it sells..

 

[Matthew]

Cars worth what someone will pay. Ide want £5500 for my 182 TBH

Them 2 in the OP are just stupid though, I cant understand the 1st one abit as they have done some things to it, so may want to get back some £ they have sunk in, but the 2nd is standard...

Idiots..

exactly.

 

[rory182]

My 52 plate would be advertised at £3500 tbh

 

[chrispy.clio]

The red one is over priced but the first one comes with lots of goodies. But not worth his asking price.

 

[gtt_jmy]

is that a plastic bag covering the fuses?

 

[Gally]

The 6.5k BG 182 that was for sale recently was my personal favourite.

 

[richy22]

My missus almost spunked £1995 on an S reg Peugeot 1.4 Lx today.

Is mine really only worth £1000 (max) more!?! Mental.

 

[Gally]

I hope you hit her hard.

In the ribs. Hidden bruises ftw?

I did have a chuckle at that one.

Why people think any 182 is worth more than £4500 is beyond me.

 

[richy22]

I pointed out that £1500 MAX is what she should be looking at paying for a 1.4 S reg with about 70K last night.

She still wanted to go and get this one. NO Tax, Cambelt needed doing and he was only giving her £100 for her current Fiesta.

Woman,.

Ps...serious question am I being realistic with wanting £2800 for mine??

 

[Gally]

Yes.

 

[R20 CWH]

imo as a general rule id say:-

Ph1s - £700 (totally shagged W reg)- £3000 (mint circa 60k mile Y reg in a rare colour)
mk2 172s - £1000 (totally raped Y reg/ 51 reg with no history - cambelt)- £4250 (mildly modified, good condition, FRSH and immaculate 53/04 reg with low miles)
cups - £1500 (Cat c/d shed)- £4500 - (low mile, good service history and mint confition)
182s with packs - £1750 (complete bucket and no history 100k+ miles, auction special) - £5250 (late 55 regger with low miles and FRSH, immaculate and spotless in a good colour (petrol/ liquid add £500-750)
Trophys - £2500 (that 167k one?!?! or cat c/d + £500) - £6000 (mint late 55 reg with low miles and FRSH and all invoices, receipts, spotless)

If a car is modified it depends what people will think, if with 4 pots, cams, spoilers, splitters, alloys, decats, air intakes, stickers, seats and exhausts its as usual personal preference so probably best punting 2nd hand.

Seen a Trophy with less than 50k go for less than 5k? I havent

I did once see a dolphin on holiday though?

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Pics of you with said dolphin?

 

[R20 CWH]

all based on condition and rarity, however majority will be ragged to death, badly maintained and probably quite tatty.

If a gem appears its usually worth the premium. Lets face it though the RS Clio standard 172/182 range is hardly the pinnacle of motoring are mega desirable, so always going to be major fluctuations in pricing.

Only limited run cars will command a better premium, ie the trophy, 172 cup and R27 etc.

[Gally]

Have you seen the 182 for 6.5k pmsl!

 

[R20 CWH]

enlighten me, it must be like 10k miles, 100% spotless and frank williams owned it

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

LOL @ the picture

 

[dom_182]

I just got £5550 for mine after about 5 days on Autotrader. If your write up is good with good pics and it's not well over the top price wise it's going to sell.

 

[R-Sport.]

I have a viewing on Monday on the RB-
6.3k

LOL post- We may as well throw a trophy in at that price or a low mileage LY 182-

Decent cars still fetch decent prices --
Top notch 182 in a rare colour will go over 6k-

I got just under 8 for a rare colour just 4 months ago-

[Gally]

Aren't you a dealer tho?

182 top end price is to low--- although if its private it may not be to far out..

the trophy was 1.7k on 167k I remember the thread-

It was a cheap arctic blue dolphin - not the rare petrol blue dolphin

lol

PS gally
yes-- I wasnt sure whether it was just private sales-

All vehicles sold a trophy for 9k the other week
S

just from my personnal experience hardest car in the range to sell- = Trophy

 

[R20 CWH]

aye meaning private, everyone knows dealers are a bump

 

[Gally]

Dealers prices don't count. It's the only way people can afford it is through finance so they'll pay 8k for a 182 in BG or something silly!

 

[R-Sport.]

aye meaning private, everyone knows dealers are a bump

good quality cars are hard to source....


Adding to the above-- easiest car for me to sell has been

BG 182 + RB 182, FF only

fasting selling car was the LY though.......
