I'm probably going to be doing the same in the spring :rolleyes:
Need something i can take fishing, now the missus has chopped in her jeep for a hatchback.

So if anyone else wants the suspension, don't hesitate.

Cheers

Been offered 18k for the car from a lad at work, which is a lot more than the part ex price I would get so think the car is going.

Obviously the car in VW would be more expensive so a good deal for both of us.

Would be sad to see it go - I bought it with the intention of never selling it - but it's being wasted going nowhere other than to the shops everyday.

Phoned around a few Renault dealers and have suprising decent part ex price

My mate wants to buy it which will be more money my way but might leave the wife without a car until new car lands and also means I have to drop the car off in Aberdeen.

Part ex + selling the suspension not far away from private sale.



If I do part ex it I will remove the suspension if I sell it to my pal I will leave it on.



Beddie do you still want the suspension? £400

Getting my mrs a new captur.

Very good value as they're well spec'd with sat nav cruise control and climate etc. also have 4yr warranty and servicing and RAC cover.

Don't need a golf GTI for taking babies to play school and sainsburys and I rarely drive it.

I've got my toy (clio 200) which I choose to drive over the golf if I go for a blast out so might as well get something more suitable for my wife

I'm also buying an S2 elise but keeping my clio so if I have a clio200 an elise and a Gti its a bit much so 2 toys and a shopping trolley is the way to go.

i had to Google what a Renault captur looked like and I'm impressed looks nice I know what your saying about the gti sometimes I think I should get somethink a bit more practical but I like the drive to much

Thanks for that

I'm sure I will miss it sometimes

It the best car I've owned overall but not the most fun nor the most practical so not really what I need

If I had 1 car its perfect bu if you have 2+ then wasted a bit
