FredBear Posted 4, June 2013 Report Share Posted 4, June 2013 Hi! I joined up yonks ago as I was leaning towards getting a Clio for my daughter, however she decided she preferred the Pug 206 GTi so got one of those instead. Next, I was looking for a Megane to replace my Ford Fiesta XR4, but couldn't find a decent one at the right price so I with a Focus XR5 which was an offer too tempting to ignore. Now I'm looking for a car for my wife to replace her old one which broke a timing belt on the freeway 2 weeks back and completely lunched the engine. Gotta love the unpredictable! She deserves a decent car and after test driving a few Euro sedans, hatches and coupes I just about have her convinced, after sitting in a Pug 207 GTi, that either a Clio or a Megane of the Sport variety would be better suited. So the hunt is on - if i ask any stupid questions along the way be sure to taint your answer with a relevant level of sarcasm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiapoco Posted 4, June 2013 Report Share Posted 4, June 2013 Very good! Goodluck with the hunt. There are a few well looked after 2nd handers in the for sale section. Have a look and you might find something appropriate to replace your wifes lunched ride with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ace Posted 4, June 2013 Report Share Posted 4, June 2013 Speka has a mint 250 he was trying to sell, I don't think you'll find a better slightly used example than that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiapoco Posted 4, June 2013 Report Share Posted 4, June 2013 ah yes of course. Probably the best deal around here on the forums atm. Monaco Edition 250 to be precise. sat nav, glass roof, heated seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredBear Posted 4, June 2013 Author Report Share Posted 4, June 2013 Thanks lads, but we're looking at the other end of the price range unfortunately, so something more around an '05 Meg or an '08 Clio is on the cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffyn Posted 4, June 2013 Report Share Posted 4, June 2013 You'd do a lot worse than Pricey's 225 at the moment. Best colour for the ph1 as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
