2003 Renault Avantime, perfect classic investment opportunity SOLD

Hi all. I'm looking at selling my 2003 Avantime 3. 0 V6 Auto
It has full service history, very good condition inside and out. Hardly been used myself since I've had it and I'm about to put a deposit on a house and also own a Mégane II sport hatch and a Vel Satis which I prefer to use, however, I have too many cars and don't have the space.

It will have a full MOT before sale, I can guarantee the condition to pass first time. It's has had absolutely hundreds spent on it in the past year. No rot underneath like a lot of Avantimes, no undersealer hiding anything either, all original and genuine solid chassis. Subframe is also original and solid. I will go through a list of things that has been done in my ownership,

Wheel bearings all round

New KYB Excel-G shocks on the front

New springs all round (correct height, Espace III 30mm lowering springs)

Both heater matrix's replaced with upgraded Teflon seals which are rated well in their hundreds of degrees, so shouldn't ever leak from there (common problem)

Replacement transponder ring

Meyle HD inner rods

Meyle HD drop links

NTN SNR top mount and bottom bearings

Bottom arm bushes and joint which are also Meyle HD (not fitted, but
will be supplied with the sale)

Both new stainless steel exhaust flexes tig welded in

All 4 alloy wheels have also been recently refurbished and haven't been fitted to the car yet, never used or had tyres on them. I can get these installed before sale. Original wheels will be available for full asking price.

Has also had new power steering rack pipes installed (common problem with corrosion from wheel well)

New radiator fitted and filled with the correct Renault Type D coolant

New NGK coils and spark plugs all round at an expense of well over £200!

New rear tailgate gas struts, opens and closes nice and solid

Tyres are also good all round and decent brands, no Chinese tyres.

New PCV piping too (improved from the original plastic piping which is brittle and hard)

New Genuine Renault fuel cap (old one got stolen at a car meet)

Air conditioning is ice cold and was regassed correctly, by myself in October (I was a panel beater then)

There's probably plenty more I've missed, this car has honestly had it all, everything works as it should. Runs and drives well, engine has plenty of power, gearbox shifts as it should. Timing belt was replaced in 2013, about 40k ago I believe, but I'd recommend replacing next year.

Xenons and washer jets all work as should.

The Avantime has been dry stored since February this year, hasn't moved since. Mileage is very low for the year at just 118k and it's a very late 53 reg, registered on a Carlisle plate.

It has all the original booklets and sales executive card from original order. This Avantime is one of very few unnumbered, so a rarity in the Avantime UK world and 1 of only 2 on a Carlisle reg, I believe the rest are registered by Renault UK.

This is my first time ever selling a car, I really will miss it, but I need to prioritise my future and moving home and I just haven't used it as much as I'd like as I have more fun in my Mégane which can be used daily for me. This Avantime is a perfect usuable show car or weekend car, however, I've always found it way too nice to park anywhere and I've just had anxiety leaving it when shopping, hence why I use my other cars more.
I want it to go to a good loving home who will look after and cherish this very nice example. It has no common roof rail corrosion, and exhaust is a stainless twin pipe system.
Any questions, please ask me, but please only genuine interest, it is my first car sale, so I'm new to all of this. My asking price is £6, 995, but I may take sensible offers on viewing.

I would also like to note, there is a very small unnoticeable mark on the bonnet where a stone or something has hit it in the past, this was on the before I got it.

I have also listed on Auto Trader where there are more photos.

Please leave me a message, or drop me an email at using the button below where I can get back to you asap. I work nights so wil be sleeping the majority of the day.

Thank you!

£6, 995
