buying a new Twingo

[Lordyb]

rite Guys.
I yet again need some advice and thoughts.

I currently own a Twingo RS non cup, have done for almost 3 years.
My Finance is up in Jan. i dont want too keep the RS i have now, wud have too get a lone etc to cover final payment.

i would rather a new car. Clio is too expensive.

i dont really think i want the Twingo Facelift either, wen ever it gets released. (my dealer denied all knowlodge of a facelift version!) lol

now i am looking at getting something special and unique.i.e. Gordini or Silverstone. if the price is right.!

is this a silly idea or do u reckon its worth doing?

Thanks
Gordy

+1

Could always look at a Wind Gordini though?!

 

[Lordyb]

my dealer has a demo Gordini he said. gutted, so why does the renault dealer website(local dealer) advertise Gordini!

and my local dealer has a brand new Twingo silverstone in the garage.
i ideally want the silverstone.

EDIT!! the dealer is advertising the 1.2 gordini. never mind. its the Silverstone i really like anyway!

if you can get it then by all means take it while you can, try and trade in your current finance for a new car now, thats what ive done to get my twingo... most garages if you go back to them help you out ;-)

 

[Lordyb]

well i am getting prices for them as i type, so shall wait and see what happens. i will let you all no what happens. but wud be great too hear everyones opinions.

Get a silverstone if you can but also cant you just trade your Twingo in early?

 

[Lordyb]

as i said, fancy a new car.
and i am trading it in early, as i stand, the value of my Twingo is more than what i owe. so i am looking at trading in now for the Silverstone at my local dealer. just wanted some outside thoughts, too make sure i wasnt doing anything stupid.lol

 

[Karl]

I miss read some of it sorry mate.

If i was me and the time felt right and i wanted a change id do it now and make sure i get the car i want and not leave it to late. Also if you got a Silverstone you will have 1 of 50 cars!!!!!!!!!!

A limited edition of an already rare car

If the deal is right it makes sense to trade it in and get another new one.

It's what they call "fixed cost motoring" I believe. You pay the monthly payments and always have a brand new car without worrying about mileage, etc and if anything goes wrong its covered!

thats what i was thinking,

i should have a quote for the Silverstone this afternoon, shall see what my dealer can do.
after seeing it the flesh, it looks amazing!

do you reckon the new exhaust increases the power at all?

If its just the back box I doubt it.

 

[maggi200]

It's not the rs exhaust though, from what I read they described it as a fully aftermarket system. I would very much doubt it though

 

[Courtney]

Sorry, i must have miss read somewhere... but yeah, while the twingo is worth more than you owe grab the oportunity. Its not very often the case with newer cars..

interesting. do we know who its made by then?

My mistake, having looked at the rs website it says full rs system. Not sure where I got that from now :lol:

 

[Lordyb]

uhohh!!!! i think i have just bought a new car!!!!

i am going to sign the documents 2mo for a Twingo RS Silverstone! woop!!!!

i will go and take photos 2nite and post them up, i will also find out wat number it is!

 

[Matt]

Haha didn't take you long... If you don't mind the asking, what are you paying for it in comparison and what did they offer for your car?

 

[DrDrew]

Woah, that was fast. Some real-world pics of one would be nice to see.

Must have been offered a good deal!
