    Paid My Deposit

    Just got back from Hemel Hempstead where I have put down a deposit on an '03 plated Red 172

    Pick it up next saturday.
    1 owner
    10,949miles (Serviced at 10,931 by Renault Dealership selling the car on 12/12/03)
    Bought from Camden Renault Milton Keynes originally
    2 new Conti's (other 3 are Conti's too)
    Exterior and Interior unmarked.
    Previous owner traded it for a Vauxhall of some sort? Poss VX220.

    It will be 1yr old on 01/03/04 so still has over 2yrs warranty.

    Total Price = 10,845

    Here's a pic I took just before we left Hemel.

    We drove to Hemel specifically to look at a red one coz the most common colours of 172's are Silver or Black.

    Love them cars, always make me have a second look when i walk through a car park. And getting red is wise cos they appear to be all black or silver!! Not an entirely bad thing tho...
