    @ shadowhearth i'm on all the good forums, just nothing decent within a reasonable distance to travel unfortunately.

    i've also got the whole week off work to pursue this :D

    I did such thing before like you - took holiday to find a car. Never worked out. All the cars crap or non on donedeal. Then ofc murphies law - as soon as holiday over some car goes up for sale that's perfect for you - fuuuuuuuuu!

    Can anyone enlighten me as to the Ownership documents involved with a Polish car?

    (looking at some of you regulars more than others :P)

    Have a friend interested in a Polish registered car, so just need to know what kind of Docs we need to look out for when looking at it and if he buys it...

    Don't know about polish ones, but Lithuanian reg ones are imposible to sell on witouth going back to Lithuania.
    In Ireland you just change log book and send it out, back in Lithuania - you go to registration office, take car of registration, then put new owner on registration after full check up of vin codes by office etc

    I have few polish friends, if you want. Can give a call and ask.

    What does your friend want to do? He is Irish and wants to buy polish car and put if on Irish plates?

    seen this boyo of an add when searching the word "glanza"

    seemed like the friendly sort so i said id give him a wind up via text :)

    me : how much for the mazda
    him : make an offer
    me : 300
    him : nahh ur alri
    me : how much do you want for it then? i've been looking for a 323 hatch
    him : were bouts r yeh
    me : bray

    that is the word for word conversation with nothing removed, that is also where the conversation ended.

    i have no interest in the car and just text him for that laugh, i also thing 300 is a good offer on that car with no tax or test and structural corrosion.

    edit : just seen this http://m.donedeal.ie/for-sale/cars/2991633
    NO TIMEWASTERS R CLOWNS WASOEVER

    DONT TEXT ME ACTIN D MAGGET KUZ YEH WILL BE TOLD WERE T GO END OF..

    I've been looking at RX8's again for the past few weeks even though I have no intention of buying one. I'm only depressing myself at the thought of having one as a "weekend" car :o

    Make sure you check and check again for crash damage. Mental drivers over there (last time I was there, I had someone pass me on a blind corner only to slam on the brakes 50m's down the road to turn onto another road) Labour rates are a lot cheaper in Poland, so a lot of badly crashed cars make it back onto the roads fully repaired.

    The GTR's been up there for MONTHS, I'd say you could offer him €7k and he'd eat it out of your hands.
    If it's not too far it might be worth a look at least. ;)

    That is a very regular occurrence with me so I won't be taking that bet:)

    But have other reasons to try and get off them, they are really holding me back when I go running.

    No, it doesn't help that my office over looks the smoking hut. I know what I have to do but that is easier said than done.

    Just be thankful that your boss doesn't smoke in his office and your office is right next to his. I tried giving up when I started this job but he lights up the minute he comes in!
