I think this looks good.

Test till August 13. Might be slightly over priced at 1,600.

Slightly over priced? LOL understatement of the year

Love that nicely colour unco-ordinated back bumper, not

EDIT: Read your post wrong.

It's in good nic IMO. It's under 1,600 and has abit of test. I don't see much wrong.

Why did you post it then?

BW, that should be in the dreamers thread

BUBBLE WRAP

I'm bad at this.

You would want at least 500 quid knocked off that price before you could describe it as good value

Apart from it being overpriced I can't see much wrong with it really. If you could get it closer to the grand mark It could prove to be good value reliable motoring imo.

So what if it's got black bumpers, many cars in the 90's had. Imo it's better than some other sh*te that gets posted in this thread.

It's very 90's with he black bumpers and suits the car. Looks very clean

Absolutely it's not that bad folks, while over priced it's not the worst, get a few hundred quid off the asking and it would easily give 10 years of ultra reliable motoring too. That's bangernomics IMO.

It does look mint to be fair though and the black bumpers suit it. Not a bad find BW.

Reliable motoring indeed. For those of us with very low demands / ambitions and no sense of style whatsoever

Dude, €1,600 would get you a very, very nice less than 10 year old high end motor. A fool would spend that on a 20 year old low end sh1tbox tbh

Puts the price of that toyota in perspective BW.

Dude. not everyone wants a high end motor. Some want a car that looks as clean as the day it left the shop and will never break down. Not everyone wants a 2002 E200 that will sh1t itself after 6 months.

Different strokes for different folks etc etc. You yourself might not like it but at least make yourself aware that others might.

Tbh you seem to look down your nose at anything that isn't a premium brand:rolleyes:. Yes you are correct 1600 would get you a nice less than ten year old high end motor but that ''high end motor'' won't be as reliable, well engineered, or as cheap to run/maintain as on of these ''low end sh1tbox'' as you like to call them.

Maybe he has excellent haggling skills
The Carina E is quite rare nowadays, I reckon a good one will attract a certain level of rarity premium, not €1600 admittedly.

Right back to bangernomics, Heres another low end sh1tbox:p

Sure. My main car is a 12 year old Saab 9-5 (worth about €600), based on the '88 Opel Vectra platform

Hardly a snob, am I?

But whatever you're having yourself. Some fellas like big old fat women, some fellas like old Toyotas. Go please yourself

166man

Or wait.... Even better... This!

http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/cars/4427126



NCT for about 14 months, taxed, serviced, low miles and looks like somebody could very well bag a bargain here. Future classic for sure.

Another nice old toyota :pac:

3SGE engined too

Wheels look like marbles but can't have everything for € 795, 12 months NCT

Nice find!

Anyone know if the 1.8 is a Honda engine or the K-series? RJ, I'm thinking of you.

Honda, SOHC 16v about 115bhp iirc.

No NASP Rover engines found their way into 600s

Had one of them years ago, not a bad bus to be fair.

... sold mine and bought a Celica just like the one above funnily enough.

The Pontiac

The only person I ever knew that liked "big old fat women" also drove a 1992 Toyota Corona import with 400k miles on the clock and he loved it. It died only recently. God honest truth.

Some like both. It'd be an interesting Psychoanalysis study of him I reckon.

That is a beaut. Is it the wheels or the tyres that are too small. I can't work it out.

Either way they're freakin me out.

No your not a snob, just a hypocrite:pac:

In all seriousness though there is nothing at all wrong with a Saab even if it has GM underpinnings.

They're the factory wheels, I reckon someone cheaped out on the tyres, can't remember what size tyre went on them but I do remember it wasnt cheap
Mine was lowered too though so looked :cool:

Looks sweet as a nut.

Doesn't qualify for vintage tax just in case you thought it did.

Another one owned by a member of the Irish forum, so it will have been looked after and it will be a classic long before the Hyundai Coupe ever will be!
