Seems crazy that the general opinion ive been getting from the forum is that 182s second hand are totally worthless (considering RRP).
Just over £9k for an 04 plate Black Gold? Thats an insane price, good for the buyer!
I dont get it. Looking on Autotrader there are a lot of older 172s and a fair few cups are up the £8k mark still (most are around £7k-ish depending on mileage and obviously condition). For example, a MK1 172 for £6k

Having said that, as someone said, Renault doing huge discounts and the import market brand new for £12k doesnt help.
If I sold my 182 privately (8000 miles, 8 months old), id expect £10k at the very least (cupped with metallic paint). Trade in prices are very poo, about £8k i was offered; he told me he intended to sell it for £10k ish.
