Don't you just hate car salesmen!?

Some cars on here may get driven harder than cars found in dealers but no doubt 90% of cars are looked after a lot better than elsewhere.

And yea, given the 5 year service is due I guess it knocks £300-400 off
 
Im from Nottingham aswell matey. I think all our local Renault Dealerships are absolute cowboys.

When I ordered my Clio 200, I didnt even consider going to our local Renaults, as they had all tried to rip me off at some point, so I ordered from a dealership the other side of London. 4 hours each way to pick it up, but was well worth it.
 
The clios on here 100% get looked after better almost all the time I'd say

easy to check up on the cars history aswell, most people come here & report problems with the car so you can just go to 'see all posts by...' and see the entire history of the car (pretty much)

i over paid for a 58 plate clio just because it was a late model 197 & had 4k mileage, the dealer wouldn't budge on the price, i wanted a nearly new blue 197 and the lowest mileages i could find were racing blue with 20k but 06 plate, 5k on a nimbus & 4k on an albi...

you did well to get it down to 8k, im not much of a haggler

I usually go to Renault Nottingham as I really don't have the time to go trudging around the country and I can confirm that they are indeed shat.:chair:
