This will please the I've never driven one brigade So after one year and 19,000 miles my Clio 200 EDC has gone to a happy RS enthusiast. Enjoyed it most of the time and had some great fun in it. Great colour too, 'Im running around in a Punto from 2000 now, happy days. Last pic  Edited by user 08 September 2014 10:13:29(UTC)

Why did you get rid of it G7egt? You were very vocal about how good the 200T was and how it suited your needs perfectly.
There seems to be a lot of these 200Ts on the used market with very few miles, I cannot for the life of me think why ;)
Big step up in price from the 200T, I personally am not convinced the A45 is going to be much cop but if it keeps the GF happy I am willing to take a chance until the C class AMG is launched later next year.

Haven't you only just bought those alloy wheels for it?!

I was wondering what kept you... 200T is good, I drove it for 19,000 miles but I am fortunate to be able to get an A45. Harris and Sutcliffe seemed to disagree with you on the the 'much cop' bit, but most would. Why are you changing the plastic car from Norfolk I thought it was an outstanding finance deal. Personally, I don't know how you get in it, I can't bend like that anymore.

Personally, I don't know how you get in it, I can't bend like that anymore. The Lotus is staying, the GF is getting rid of her Z4. The majority of the press have the Golf R as top dog now, not really keen on either of them if I am honest.

. There are 70 2013 and 2014 Fiesta STs for sale on PH at the moment and 212 similar age Mercedes AMGs. But I'm not sure what that tells you either Edited by user 08 September 2014 19:21:32(UTC)

I always had the impression 200Ts aren’t really long term keepers.

I have to say the Clio was great value in that respect, I bought it with 500 miles on the clock an ex Renault car and put 19,000 miles on and it lost £2,850!! in one year Obviously there were the payments, insurance, tax and one service, I can't really knock that, I think it was good value. Need to sell my wheels now.

No enough passion from owners. They need a Clio 200 'R' or trophy version. Edited by moderator 09 September 2014 18:41:35(UTC)
