    Carzone is too expensive and mostly used by dealers. Unfortunately both carzone and donedeal have their fair share of scam merchants. Anyway the problem the OP has is not with where his/her car is being advertised.

    I am not sure whether I agree with you there. My attitude when selling my father's car was to blitz it in as many outlets as possible at the one time as we didn't want to be left with the car on hand as the year changed. I know we were lucky in a sense but the cost of advertising on carzone was negligible compared to the cost and general hassle of having the car there for an extended period, as it was we managed to break a side window in it when mowing the grass with a pebble that flew out.

    It's petrol do it's not like for like.
    This sort of advise is useless for the OP.
    If I need a diesel I won't want a cheaper petrol.
    Diesel cars second hand, are more expensive than the petrol versions.
    OP if you don't get any calls after a few weeks, then maybe drop your price a little and see how that goes.
    In the time it took to type that you could have looked up the cars for him.:pac::pac::pac:

    Really?? Must keep that in mind. I was trying to flog a car 4 years ago and put up pics on Carzone but never completed the ad. They rang me to see did I want to finish the ad but they wanted something like €70 :eek:. The car would have went into Auto Trader aswell iirc but it was a bit saucy when I was selling a car worth a grand.

    He isn't looking to buy a car, I gave him advice.
    If you want to help the OP fine but learn the difference between petrol and diesel first.

    I don't see much wrong with the car, maybe a price drop is what's needed. My Civic only sold two weeks ago after two months on DoneDeal, sold from Donegal to a guy in Cork.

    I think yere being a bit harsh on the car. Its a 3 door tidy car in a good colour and a rare relatively small Diesel engine and not high mileage
    Its a little pricey but some of the prices suggested here are ridiculous.

    I remember posting this 02 civic diesel for 1100 euro in the bangernomics thread

    http://cars.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/honda-civic/6326231

    I think maybe 4k as an asking might be good, and take a bit less.

    To add to that, what's the rust on the bottom like? Last DL reg car I had (Honda Civic) was very rusty underneath due to the sea air. And thus I would never buy a DL car again. Seems this is a common enough problem with DL cars, that my engineer came across.

    What a crock of ****, did you read what you wrote??? So the whole of donegal is coastal? What about every other county in Ireland with exception to the midlands? Would you not buy a car from any county with a coastline? Cars from donegal suffer no more or less from rust than any other car from any other county. Your 'engineer' is talking through his ass and is as ignorant as you are on these matters.

    I pity people who use this phrase to put somebody down. Especially on an internet forum.
