I thought Imports Direct are gone from that place ages now?

Says they have moved, that car has been for sale for over a year and they haven't dropped their price either, only noticed it in my weekly car perve :pac:

JohnBoy26 · 30-06-2014 8:18pm

I know it's got low miles but these things are going for peanuts these days. €5500 is mental money for one, especially a petrol example. On a good day he'd be extreamly lucky to get 2k for it imo. Its not "rare" either

Kaiser D · 30-06-2014 8:28pm

Is he ****ing mental?

You could be a 407 for under €2k now ffs.

Moneymaker · 30-06-2014 8:40pm

1.8 "high spec"

lol.

Renegade Mechanic · 30-06-2014 8:42pm

In fairness, that is one gorgeous Pug. Shame about the price though.

Moneymaker · 30-06-2014 8:54pm

Knock about 4k off and it'd be a great buy.

Ded_Zebra · 30-06-2014 10:37pm

Dodgy NCT on the Pug too. Test was done 25/10/2012 by the looks of things

Spike Witwicky · 30-06-2014 10:40pm

I was never a Pug fan but i have to say i do appreciate the 406 lookswise. What are they like for reliability? (as long as you dont bolt on a massive big turbo of course)

Moneymaker · 30-06-2014 10:46pm

Generally they're alright reliability wise I think?

I do love the styling alright, they've aged absurdly well. Looks better then most modern counterparts imo.

It probably is too. They finished production in 04 so that one must of been laying about unsold for awhile.

Decent looking car anyway but jaysus.

Kaiser D · 04-07-2014 11:00pm

You can tell its not been clocked by the condition of the seats. They do look lovely.

such poxy sales pitch:eek: the M5 yep but the rest Q cars? he must be as deluded as his price

CianRyan · 04-07-2014 11:06pm

Sure why would ya want anything bigger than a 2.5 though, the tax is a killer.
The rest of the line up doesn't count.

You could consider the 535/540i as Q cars, bar a slightly different single exhaust there's nothing on them to tell them apart from a regular 520i once debadged.

Surely the zero at the end is an accident. If it ain't he'll be waiting many a day to sell this 156

Fuuuuuuuck!!!!
300k km, no photo, AND he has the NERVE to say "Low Mileage"?
I will be keeping an eye on this ad for the coming weeks and months.

Don't forget the "Genuine Sale" bit, the guy is going abroad, hence the low price:eek:

Must be a joke.

2004 reg with 145 000 miles....... €5650. Admittedly I don't know the current market for the 320cd but that seems a tad on the optimistic side.

challengemaster · 13-07-2014 7:51pm

It's spot on tbh. Even a little cheap compared to others when you consider it's msport

Kaiser D · 13-07-2014 7:55pm

That's about bang on the money tbh.

Ah my mistake so. I should ahem do a little research before posting here again!

Noccy_Mondy · 13-07-2014 8:00pm

You don't see many in that colour, makes a nice change to silver or black.

Seems high because they've held their value very well. I bought mine 3 years ago for ~7k

ION08 · 21-07-2014 6:54pm

Surely this guy doesnt really think his 1986 knackered eastern european dirtbox is worth 7k??

Advertised as a "Collectors" car too.

Might swap for a Touareg V10 TDI no less.

Am surprised he isnt asking for money his way!

Not sure if taking the piss or seriously deluded?

Stupid price but it's a such a cool car.

Wold probably be worth it if it was a mint low mileage example owned by a granny who only drove it to church and back.

However, that thing looks like its been to the moon and back!

(The quality of Eastern European roads aren't much better than the surface of the moon either!)

Definitely looks like its had a hard life.
