The car is Iceburg siliver with dark grey side pods and wheels, interior clean and no rips 46k on clock new disks and rubber and new coils fitted. dammage was to the front bumper as I do belive its not OE. I was going to track the car but feel its to good to strip out and use on track

circa 4500-5k

A straight one with those miles - all being equal is ~ 7-7500 maybe a bit more for a minter

*MIGHT be worth more in parts in the long run!

Sad, but probably true. [smilie=icon_cry.gif]

At 4-5k, dare i say it's worth more to you than someone else...

Agree, it's almost too cheap to sell, I gUarentee you will enjoy the Vee more than the money you will get

Keep it, strip it out, use it for track days!
Get some fun out of it. :race:

As above sadly. You may push it into 5-6.5k bracket if its in great nick with good service history.

You may also find at that price you would get interest from the continent. You might even get a slightly better price advertising it direct to the foreign market and saying you will meet them at Dover? Parlez-vous français?

I have bought another car whick is almost ready for track so will sell the Clio, I was thinking 5K

Try for more than that !

If it was repaired correctly, the best bet is to advertise it to french, belgian, dutch & german enthusiasts.
They don't have our dumb 'CAT' system or the UK obsession with low milage. They're only interested if it's in good condition with a decent service history.
So you'll get a slightly better price (€7.5k +, which is closer to £6k than 5k), but you will have to 'help' them.
Whether that's picking a guy up from the airport so he can see it and or driving it to the ferry etc.
Obviously If it was LHD they'd pay much more.

Car now sold for asking price thanks for advice and help, great forum :race:

£5.500 still seems so cheap! Not surprised to see it sell so quickly for that price.. Also £500 - £1k above Mr Murr's for ever low estimates.
