My local Renault dealer emailed me earlier, to tell me that they have a 172 coming in on p/x for a new clio.
All I know so far is it's a FF 172 2003, with just over 20k on the clock.
They say it's going to go up for £8,250.
Now, considering it's in tip-top condition with FSH, what do you reckon it would be worth from a dealer?
Unfortunately, I need to buy from a dealer, as I have to sell my car, and have had no interest from the trader, so p/x is the only option left, and will only get about £650 more selling private.
So what would be the price to pay. I feel £8,250 is a little on the highside, as you can get a reasonable 182 for that private, but I don't have that option.
A good mileage'd 182 in a dealer seems to be £9,000 - £10,000 from what I can see on the trader, and the have seen a 2004 182 with 18.5k for £9,495.
If I could get it down to say £7,850 would that be an ok figure, or still to much. Obvioulsly it will come with a years renault uk warranty, which is a bonus over buying private.
I know I have yet to see it, as it hasn't come in yet, but would like to know people's opinions in advance, so I can make a better decision when I'm there.
Cheers.
