And the winner of dreamer of the year is...

It definitely is worth more. But it's competeing with the newer model at that price.
It's a uk import so depends on what you could get a similar one for over there.
It's pricey but it will sell quickly enough I'd say.

I decided to get in contact with an ad which had an email like that (to see what they had to say).

Ad for sale by a woman called Hazel, number linked to a woman's Facebook called Alison, and the guy emailing me was called Jeffrey. Car for sale in Killarney but he claimed that he is now living in Belfast & if I was interested then I would have to buy the car first (paying via PayPal), then the car would be delivered to me and I'd have 7 days to request a refund if I was not happy with the car.

All seems legit :pac:

lol

I feel this one deserves a mention.


Low mileage and leather upholstery yes but €4,750 for a 2000 Mercedes CLK which I don't believe even has a current NCT - no thanks.

A 21 year old car that doesn't start and costs 514 to tax.Shut up and take my money!

Quote from seller of Lancer who calls himself Jay

Will sail the nct

He then goes onto say and again I quote...

I drove it home and it ran perfectly, as it sat in the garden it cut out, I assumed it ran out of petrol as it was low I topped it up but it still won't start

Myself I was under the impression the car would need to be running before it could be NCT'd never mind sailing it. At least this clown seems to have a reasonable grasp of the English language not that it makes too much odds.

I love how the ad says, "I bought this car 5weeks ago and it started first time "

Lol. How is that a positive piece of information. I imagine a potential sale could go like this.

Potential Buyer: How does she run ?
Seller: The engine is b0lloxed, but dont worry it started for me one time about 5 weeks ago. Its grand. "

How many '85 Carina's you think are left in Ireland? There is 19 registered in all of the UK. Man has something rare and is entitled to name his price. That Carina has more street cred than most the VW/Audi rep mobiles many on here fawn over.

There could be none left and I still don't think it would be worth 6k

Because its an '85 reg?
The Carina was (just as the Avensis that replaced it) just a regular family car, it wasn't a head turner in 1985.
I don't think a golf gti or 205 gti of that era in that condition would even make 6k!

This ^

The amount of insecurity about VW around this place is gas everything has to be about how something compares to VW lol.

Vw bland/rep mobiles and this carina are not even in the same ball park, Which one would i like to drive 400 miles a week in or hit a wall in ? or which one would you like to drive to a car show once or twice a summer....

Street cred is for teenagers.

The Carina is a cool car, it's up to seller what price they name, don't make everything about VW and also don't refer to other peoples cars as ****e boxes (jut a general thing i've seen creeping in here again)
