    Just wondering, in the N.I. market, what is the most popular publication/website for selling and buying cars ?

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    OP if your buying a diesel go as far North as possible.

    Less of an issue with washed diesel, better roads and according to my g/f in Newry they have good protestant owners who look after them better.

    My girlfriend is from Belfast, and any time we go up to see her family, I swear the way the cars are kept up there puts the Republic cars (by and large) to shame.
    Exact same thing with their towns/cities. A truly excellent example of taking pride in what you own.

    That kinda reminds me of what my dad said to me when i started cleaning my car alot, shaking his head 'we're getting as bad as the english'. :P

    Truthfully he has a point, my missus and her mum are magic in the kitchen :D

    To the OP, one thing to note is that NI cars are a little more expensive than the UK mainland. Weigh up the higher cost with the easier/cheaper travel against the cheaper car/flights over.
