what u all think? i own this now :D

[Cal]

Make sure cambelts been done. Great cars though

[kevin_172]

how much the cam belt cost if he hasnt had it done?

[Cal]

Around £250ish Not 100% sure as mine isnt at that mileage yet. There are loads of servicing guides at www.cliosport.net if you are serious about it :y:

[vts--daz]

I brought a 02 172 not so long back.
As said get the cambelt done if it hasnt been done, places will quote you around 350-400 quid thats how much i payed around.
People will tell you to take it to reno and get it changed but your looking at abouy 600 quid i believe but you know the job has been done properly using reno parts.

Great cars ll the same and like any car you look after it then it shall be fine.
Common faults are;
engine mounts
top mounts
exhaust
are poorly made !

Cliosport forumk will tell you everything you need to know, get siggned up if you havent

daz

[Karl]

sounds a bit cheap that,
pics? any faults?

[kevin_172]

only a keying down one of the doors. i can get that fixed no problems though. ill have piccys tomorrow as im going to see it

[Ryan]

sounds like a steal.
come join cliosperience :P

[Ryan]

and cambelt and aux i wouldnt touch a car thats not been done. the stealers want 600-800 to do this depending on which cunts.

Irc gdi/ktec its more like 300-500

[kevin_172]

ill have to ask him this tomorrow then! i remember having the VTR done at main dealer... ouchie.

[DaveyBoy]

if you get the car. fair play to you mate, another great car to choose. also forcing you to look after it.
if ur buying from a dealer try and get the belt change cheap or something. if not. talk down the price.
good luck mate

[kevin_172]

none of the stuff like cambelt and stuff was done. he was selling it because the paint work was a state! just found something a little nicer and i can afford it too. anyone care to comment on this one on auto trader?

Smart cars.

[DaveyBoy]

end of conversation. :)

[Ryan]

Smart cars.

I wanted a smart roadster, the brabus edition though the others leak badly lol!!

they rock!

[Karl]

Brabus?
im guessing its a soooooped version with alot of power?

[Ryan]

its higher spec all round, doesnt leak as much as the normal roadster for some reason lol!! nicer rims, and is a bit quicker.

Good fun cars imo and we got lots of ladies loving it when we were out in one a few years back lol!!

[djrem]

I was well up for geting one then they spoke about the V6 version.

Shame it never got made into produciton :(

[Ryan]

still a very good car rem.

good fun, economical, and can be interesting if the boost is adjusted lol

[Liam_C]

What is it with people going from a saxo to clio? Next chav car, replacing corsa?lol

[Ryan]

What is it with people going from a saxo to clio? Next chav car, replacing corsa?lol

and the saxo isnt classed as a chav car??

lol

anything that is quick and handles well, after age reduces in value. so they become more available to poeple on lower incomes.

[Liam_C]

and the saxo isnt classed as a chav car?

Didn't say it wasn't but was sort of replaced by corsas and now seems like every ones getting a clio.
Personally thinking Mk2 golf but thats just me.

[Ryan]

I wouldnt say the people getting them on here are chavs though lol!!

chavs just drive jap crap mostly now. So they can wind up boost lol

[Liam_C]

Well ok, earlier comment retracted, and wasn't calling them chavs but it seems to be getting that way, seen a few rather fake looking 172s and 182s about.

[Ryan]

key word being FAKE :P

[kevin_172]

Now the proud owner of the 172!!!!

[Karl]
