Right, thought i'd introduce myself. I've basically been looking at a couple of DC5's over the weekend and thought i'd say hello and get some opinions as well.
My car history of late has been very French, having had Clio 182 Trophy's for the last 18 months - one got written off in November last year so i went and bought another with my insurance money! My GF also has a 182 as well. I recently sold my Trophy with the intention of getting a Megane R26, but Renault have changed the specs and i now can't order the exact one i want until late September, which means delivery in January more than likely.
My old car and the GF's car :
So, back on track... i'm looking at either of these two DC5's :
a 04 plate in Black, 12k miles, Red Recaros, no C pack but with tinted rear windows - £14995
OR
a 55 facelifted version in Black again, 1.2k miles, Black Recaros, no C pack but again tinted rear windows - £16995
Of those two, what do people think of the prices? I have a little bit of temptation towards getting the 55 plate - i have a small thing in my mind where when i change cars it needs to be as new as what i had previously. But at the same time, the 04 plate one fits my budget a bit better and wouldnt be such a stretch financially... however, ignoring the financial side of things, what would your preference be?
