[Kane.]

In spain.

£7800 really worth that ? Thats a cheap one i found lol. The phase 1 vee goes for £17000.
:dapprove:

 

[jenic]

Buy one from the uk?

Bet you could get a mint one to your door for half that if you picked it up. You'd just have to live with the steering wheel on the correct side.

 

[Kane.]

On the correct side lol, im too used to it being on the wrong side, ive never drove a rhd over here, the only way unless i could get a lhd from uk.

 

[Turkish]

Perhaps owners over there don't drive the prices down like the cretins on here.

That does seem incredibly expensive :/

 

[Fernandez]

[hilldawg172]

irc rs are quite/expensive rare in france an thier was a post about them importing them selves

 

[Harpham]

So how much are they brand new then?

 

[Donny_Dog]

Just the same as portugal, cars are so expensive over there.

 

[Luke69]

Second hand cars are stupid money in Spain... Thats why Ive bought my Clio back in UK...it only cost 550€ to transport it over... Im used to RHD cars over here, my Mr2 is RHD and Im fine with it...

 

[fUbAr]

Buy it in Gibraltar using proper Queen's money, sit on the correct side of the car and speak the correct language when doing so...

 

[DrR]

If you want to be really anal, thats not a clio sport.


On a side note, i'll drive my 182 down to you, and you can have it for £7500?

 

[jenic]

I'll drive mine to you for £6k

 

[DrR]

Christ don't drop so much so soon!

 

[midge]

In europe these are worth so much more money, a guy from netherlands came to my house to buy a 172 engine, he said in netherlands the cheapest ones were £2000.

According to my mate who lives in France all 2nd hand cars cost loads more than over here. Looks like thats the case all over Europe. Not sure about places like Poland though?

 

[Fabian]

@ midge : yes thats true, in germany they are very expansive and rare too, the parts for the 172 /182 also.

Thats why i buy my spare parts and tuning parts in your country

@ realnumber1 : in poland they are a bit cheaper, but most people here won´t buy a car from poland...there are too much prejudices in their heads

Still cheaper even after the 1000 euros for plate change.

Good point i wonder how much they are over there only a few hours away.

 

[nickthegun]

I sold my CTR to a guy who exports hondas to malta. Even after he has paid around 800 to have it shipped out, he reckoned he will still make at least 1500-2000 on it.

 

[TimR26]

It's a Monaco Blue so worth every Euro....

 

[Luke69]

Still cheaper even after the 1000 euros for plate change.

yeah..alot cheaper.. Rev.1 Mr2 over here are €5000-€6000 I got a rev.3 in the UK for €2100...

I don't recall seeing a single RS Clio on the trips I've made to Spain in recent years. No wonder at that price - people probably go for something they think is more upmarket?

You wont hardly seen anythng have decent in Spain, only down south or round Barcelona.... I dont know anybody whos got a 1*2 over here... all the spaniards have either got Seat leons, Ibizas, Pugs, etc...

 

[mat-nos]

get your arse over to england and get one, flights are pretty cheap and then drive back home, change the plates over and enjoy the 2.5k change or spend it on mods??!!

its a shame japan is such a treck :-(

I've seen a 182 in Magaluf. Covered in battle scars, was a right shed. That was over 2 years ago too so god knows what its like now!

 

[kevin.s]

ive seen a couple in ibiza and they always seem to be battered too.

 

[Bramley]

Thats a rip off!

I got mine for £3800 with 13k on 2 months ago(51 reg)

 

[joebristolgym]

France sounds to be expensive for cars - a guy came over from the South of France to buy my S2000 - apparently they were almost double the price over there.

Yes lol very true i have only seen one 182 in orange since living here (4.5 years) quite a few non rs though.

Yeh the spanish really dont care about their cars.

 

[DrR]

I've seen a V6 in france, and there was a black 182 in one of my rents holiday snaps.

Most cars in france seam complete sheds

 

[jack_kemp]

I'm sure I read somewhere that the uk make up 90% of the renaultsport Market? Rare car on the continent, so more money.
I bet the frogs are peeved that we're selling their own cars back to them at extortionate prices

Also, people don't place such a huge importance on what car they drive out there, so cars don't depreciate like they do here. Plus reg plates don't show the age of the car in most of Europe do they?

There was a Phase 2 Illiad Blue v6 for sale in Austrailia this time last year for $35,000 (it had more than 12k on the clock)
