That ad has pretty much everything that I hate about DoneDeal right there. Arrogant prick of a seller who is just "testing the waters" (what the hell does that even mean; you either want to sell or you dont), with an overvalued "minter" (when is a second hand car ever mint?!!) and a rotten attitude. Add to that a series of dreadful pictures taken on a camera phone, and a mobile number without even so much as a name, and you have the reason why I cant be arsed trawling through that site most of the time. That car would want to be either exceptionally rare or exceptionally cheap to make me want to spend even ten seconds talking to that guy.

Nice of him to put the mileage in though! :pac:

Amazing how someone can write an essay for an ad, but not put in a crucial detail.

I'd love to find out where he gets these "150%" parts, would save me a fortune 'cause when I get new parts, I can only get them in 100%.

Ha ha, what a clown! Does he think its a 200k car he is selling.

I actually know what car as it does be down around me as he might be driving for them lads there in the lorries in the picture.

Money to test drive.... FFS

it's a free country, if a deluded seller want to see what kind of money he can get for his old golf, shure whats the harm.

Donedeal is basically the old BUY AND SELL, but online......full of oul' shyte being hawked by queestionable clowns.

Nothing ever changes.

Hate it or not, if you want to find a car- DD is where you'll find it, as it gets half a million irish views a day....if a car goes up for sale, it gonna be on DD.

At least he had the sense to keep it under 20 k , I'd say that was a tough decision for him.

That really does belong in this thread.

hopefully a typo

My first thought also, however it wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't!

Kaiser D

94 Metro - €1000

Looks very clean, but for an end of production model with no tax or test €1k seems very hefty.

03 R32 8k ad text is "Must sell before Saint Patrick's Day.."

Even at (presumably) €1500 thats mental.

MJ23

8000 for an 11 year old guzzler. I wouldn't pay 800 for it. The tax alone would break ye.

Yea that is overpriced even at €1500

Its pretty sad that we seem to be that uneducated a nation that any numbers in the thousands so many people are unable to grasp them....that's the way it would seem to me anyway a lot of the time:rolleyes:

As for the Golf R32, does he really expect to sell the car with that sort of description let alone the price....

Kaiser D

€2000

Its a lovely car, but €2k for a Tempra that hasn't had an NCT in 5 years and hasn't seen the road in 8 is mental.

We had what may have well been that exact car when I was young and to keep it relevant here's a 05 RAV4 for €11,750

Its at concourse money and isn't nearly in concourse condition.

It'll be years before they are worth that kind of money for an above average example.

With the right price that would sell but the current asking price is beyond a joke.

The seats alone probably account for about a third of the price in fairness!

exactly. a set or those recaros go for €3-400 easy. a good 4e-fte engine would probably go for the same. €200 for scrap for the rest of the car maybe?

Yeah, but it's still some load of munt considering what 1,200 brick buys you these days.

Dont get me wrong, its a heap of ****, but in reality its a €500 car with a €400 set of seats in it.

mloc123

He had the seats up for 250e separately before and nobody bit...
