Hi Guys,

I've just sold my 172 after 3 years of ownership and it will be gone at the end of this month. I'm going to be placing an order for a Black 225 with Cup chassis, Xenons and Recaros :D So I thought i'd say hello!

What was my 172 :

Can't wait for the 225!

Gareth.

Welcome Gareth, I'm a member on Cliosport as well. I've always liked you 172, so well looked after.

Your 225 will be exactly the same as mine apart from the Recaros.

You'll love it mate as soon as you set eyes on it. It's an amzing feeling to know it's all yours, it was for me anyway :lol:

Good luck with the sale and purchase.

Gaz (cliomadness on cliosport)

Cheers Gaz, I drove one of the exact spec, colour, recaros, xenons etc at the weekend, the only difference being it had 8k miles on it, the salesman was using it as his company car until its sold (basically ragging the sh*t out of it each day) and they wanted £19k for it.

that's a joke!! I paid £15399 for mine from BMNC, so yours shoudn't be be much more with the recaros (about £800 option if I remember correctly??).

They are a bargain for all the gear in them, especailly compared to the new 197! with the same spec!

Welcome along Gareth, black is best :lol:

yeah I'm looking at £16749 with the Recaros, then IIRC £150 for delivery. I take it you got the free cup pack then £500 off something else for being a MeganeSport.net member to get your price, they are a bargain.

yeh I got the special offer that was on at the time. Not sure if they're still doing it. I'd highly recommend BMNC though, they were great with me!

Gareth

yeah I think they've stopped that offer now. How long did it take to get yours? I'm looking at ordering at the end of this month. Was Black extra £££? as the dealers wanted £360 for it. How was yours delivered, truck, driven? did they charge for it?

Welcome.

Before you get yours, have another test run & get them to demo the launch control...

...you don't want to burn out the clutch on yours when it arrives

Xenons a must but you may have to change your mind on Black it's getting to be more common than Inferno :lol:

i just think black looks best with the anthrancite wheels. I'm not going back for another test drive, I got pretty f00ked off with the salesman trying to pressure me into buying one for £22k, he was trying to make out that it was no big deal spending 22k on a wim even though I hadn't sold my 172, he was a total utter ***** and I practically walked out on him.
