I'd want detailed pictures of the damage and the repairs along with a very low price and full service history. Very difficult to sell on, so unless it's a good deal just walk away, it could cost you a fortune if it's just been bodged back together.

I imagine by the time he's paid this finance off he'll be sick of clios and won't be wanting a cs. They are pretty harsh on ocuk, but he has been tremendously stupid, paying well over the odds on a basic 1.2 clio with a huge interest rate. Very foolish indeed.

You're an elf? Or do you really like lord of the rings?

The only thing extreme about that is the price! Who the hell would spend £10k on a 1.2 clio? Save your money until you can actually afford a faster car if i were you. And you already have a 1.2, what's the point?

It's your car, what say does your girlfriend have in the matter?

I'd wait and save your money. Spending more than 1k on insurance is madness. Let alone 2k+.

Interesting, this does sound like a good idea. Can you recommend anywhere to look for a door? Or just general breakers and scrapyards?

I've had a look through what service history i have. And i found a reciept for the service at 48k (from a non renault garage). From what i can see (the writing is fairly illegible) it cost £400 but i can see no mention of belts. I'm beginning to think neither of them have been done. However...

Hello, I bought my first car a few months back, and it had a couple of blemishes. A deep scratch on the bonnet, and some rust on the edge of the drivers door. As you can see thus: Now, considering i only paid £1100 for the car, i thought that taking it to a bodyshop to be...

Not tried this yet. But i need to. http://www.metacafe.com/watch/501379/remove_car_dent_with_airduster/ Looks like it works quite well.
