Hi,
I am trying to sell my 1998 S, Renault Clio Grande 3 door with full service history and 37,000 miles, 12 months MOT and 6 months tax, could you give me some idea to what it is worth to sell privately?
Thanks,

I am seriously considering buying a BMW Z3 2.8 but I have one crucial question to which I can't find an answer!
Is now a good time to buy (since the summer is almost over) or should I wait until the depths of winter for prices to drop? Do the prices drop a lot?
Any help much appreciated!! :)

I think most people with convertible know the end of summer beginning of autumn is the worst time to try and sell a convertible.
You may get lucky with someone who has to sell for a particular reason but I wouldn't expect you to be able to save more than a couple of hundred.
I think you'd find dealers wont particulary discount much more either but I could be wrong.
Has anyone else noticed ? Most of the simpletons who ran around, usually about ten feet from your rear bumber, with about half a million watts of headlamp and foglamp power, burning the paint of your boot lid, seem now to have abandoned that foolishness. Earlier in the year, this particular "cretin count" would go into double figures over less than an hour. I now see hardly any. I wonder what stupidity will replace it ? Read more
I never cease to be amazed at what people get up
to.
Last night followed a Saxo home for what seemed like forever.
Clear night, damp roads & no street lights. OK so they
didn't want to go fast fair enough, but on dip the
whole way!
No opportunity to overtake until local knowledge gave a bit of
an edge. Would have been earlier opportunities but lack of visibility
prevented as too risky not knowing where the road goes.
I'm glad u mentioned this. This is the absolutely most irritating thing for me. Especially when ur in a strange part of the country and haven't a clue where the bends are - I've almost crashed a few times being caught by an unexpected bend while overtaking some geriatric pootler going 25 mph in the dark on DIPPED beams.
Rather than go through the many car valuation guides which imho vary widely in prices and do not take into account any regional variation, Id suggest you go to your local Renault dealer and ask them to give you a price for what you should ask for the car in a private sale.
