First 3 have no cup packs so a big no for me.

Last one looks decent enough and has the cup packs, but it is a cup so no climate, leather etc.

Damo_Sport · Mar 23, 2009

sell me yours?

But on that note.. do cup packs really matter?

cat171 · Mar 23, 2009

None of those tbh.

Damo_Sport · Mar 23, 2009

meh there's not many around near me

And its gotta be a trade so i can get rid of my punto

Il widen my search to 100 miles.. 1 sec

Or if anyone wants to look on auto trader for me? postcode is bn16 3nn

cat171 · Mar 23, 2009

Sell the punto privately.

Damo_Sport · Mar 23, 2009

i would rather just trade it in.. the 19k mileage one sounds nice though i think

cat171 · Mar 23, 2009

If you trade it in you'll lose out. Having no part-ex puts you in a much much better position to buy a car, whether it be a dealers or private.

Damo_Sport · Mar 23, 2009

im not really that bothered about cup packs.. im not to worried abouy alloys and a spoiler really..

Pep · Mar 23, 2009

Cup packs will make it a lot easier to sell on, and also looks a lot better.

Don;t think mine is for sale now, don't want to get rid. Not for any less than 7k anyways!!

Damo_Sport · Mar 23, 2009

No one like this one then?

Chili Red · Mar 23, 2009

OK, I'm giving my opinion without looking at anyone else's replies first!

The first three don't have either of the cup packs, and the RB is a Cup so I wouldn't bother with that (and it's missing the front splitter anyway).

If you didn't want one with cup packs or it doesn't bother you then I'd go for the second one because it's one of the two newest and has lowest mileage, but TBH I'd hold out for a 182 with the suspension and spoiler packs.

No, it's a 182 Cup!

Have a look on here, the second one's not bad, both cup packs and a 55 plate:

Or this one:

Damo_Sport · Mar 23, 2009

whats wrong with the 182cup??

And i dont have 7k

Chili Red · Mar 23, 2009

As said above, cheap and nasty interior, no xenons, manual aircon. But buy it if you like it, people are just giving their opinions which you asked for.

I'm just trying to help, you didn't say how much you want to spend. Find your own bloody car then

Plus it's not just about 'alloys', the car actually handles better with the cup suspension pack, looks better with the anthracite alloys and will be easier to sell on. Plus the FF interior is a much nicer place to be.

LiquidCarbon · Mar 23, 2009

they all bitsh as the cup doesn't have climate control or xenon lights plus rain sensors and auto lights! but its got a better saspention setup lower by 10mm and is lighter plus a tad quicker (not that you would tell) the cup's only come in inferno and race blue!

i'll sell you mine for 6800 thoe

Damo_Sport · Mar 23, 2009

Another thing im interested in this one

http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-u...cleYearOfManufacture=2004&vehicleRegLetter=04

LiquidCarbon · Mar 23, 2009

lol exactly! you can just bye xenon bulbs like i did plus i never use the aircon anyway to save fuel and i have eyes in my head to tell if its rainning or to dark

but the seats arn't leather but you can get some good seats for 200qid! iv got recaros thoe so im fine! :approve:

Damo_Sport · Mar 23, 2009

well hopefully they take part exchances!!!

DJRowlando · Mar 23, 2009

cat171 · Mar 24, 2009

Damo_Sport · Mar 24, 2009

i havent haggled it yet.. and nope i dont mind asking

But....

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME PRICE THIS!!

Right.. it has no TAX. last service was late 06. MOT im guessing a year.. and im giving him my punto for £500 p/x

i wouldn't let him do anything to it mate, i'd be looking at knocking the money off the price so you can pay a dealer to do it! when i bought my 182 i was promised a service before i picked it up, they just topped the oil up and stamped the book! wouldn't trust any dealers to be honest

Damo_Sport · Mar 24, 2009

ok. well if i buy it as it is.. how much should i pay him plus my car? bare in mind im gonna ask for it to be taxed for 6 months tooq.. cause im not driving it 60 miles with no tax lol

Craig.D · Mar 24, 2009

the silver one looks a clean example but people will always says no cups etc etc!!!

what about this to save you dough and bring a smile to your face
(soz spanner in works)

clio_luke · Mar 24, 2009

i would have to have cup packs tbh

12/06 i think it was..

If i get it im gonna ask for a full service on it too

Nick_P · Mar 25, 2009

If it's the right car it's worth travelling, why settle for something not quite right.

The Boosh! · Mar 25, 2009

no way would i buy that. you cuold get one with a few more miles on with cup packs.

Yeh all the non cup packed haters will say new wheels/suspension you will never tell but for resale purposes i wouldn't touch one.

So i'm guessing it's be serviced once in 5 years? It's got no tax And it's due a cambelt and aux belt, and it has no cup packs?

Walk away TBH just to service and tax it will be best part of £700-800

Don't buy this man!! Its not had a service since 06? No belts? No Tax? How long has this thing been off the road and why?

Don't rush, just because you test drove it doesnt mean you have to buy it.

I would absolutely not buy this car.

Damo_Sport · Mar 25, 2009

Right i put a deposit down on it cause

He is taxing it for me.. getting a years MOT and getting it serviced for me

Im not fussed about cup pucks or anything like that

Tucker · Mar 25, 2009

hope that comes with belts

if not then get them done before you drive it properly, otherwise you're tempting fate for a cambelt snappage

What one? :S
