I only watched the first link, but not sure I'd want to be driven by that idiot.

Did I mention that I bought one a month or so ago?

Shameless picture whoring of one of the least showy cars ever to grace these pages. Green with tan; yum.

You did in a pm but don't think you have on here. As I said before I think it looks fab, ageing so well

Cocking fabulous ^^^

(although the £asking for an RS is still a bit bewildering. I'm not complaining though, it's not doing any harm to the values of my C2's ....)

I wonder what he paid for it in 2001? £30k?

...and that would've seemed a LOT back then! Bonkers.

Sold mine for 14 bags two years ago and thought I'd won the lottery. What are we talking now for a C2 with a stick? Double? More?

Not to worry.

I remember when you got it Olly. Scotland?

Why did you sell?

That is spooky! And what is more spooky is that the 172 you have posted is for sale in my neck of the woods.....uh oh!

ETA Only a couple of weeks MOT is a bit of a concern though

But on basis of MOT, if they say no, you know it's going to cost a fortune.

Perhaps not so spooky given the hot hatch theme and clio from the retro thread.

Go on! It's cheap and so standard it's even rocking the original cassette player. Low miles too.

Put a bit of money into it and you'd likely get it all back come resale.

I think that mine had the tape player too. I think. It was a while ago.

Word of caution for such a specification:

Don't set out on a 2500 mile trip through France with only 6 cassettes.You never quite get over the horror of so much Frog radio.

I drove down to the south of France last summer to see my parents......I took a few R4 boxsets for that very reason. Mon dieu.
