Keeps calling it a 1.8t diesel.

There is another one on DD. A 1.8t sport with a black roof that runs on diesel.

Must be engine swaps but they won't say engine swaps

Badge on the back looks like a tdi badge, 2002 those cars came with a 1.9 tdi engine so likely it's a misprint at best given it mentions both the 1.9 and 1.8 and says it's a diesel, could even be them trying to be clever by posting a 1.8 to give the impression tax will be less.

The 1.8 was petrol

Nah, happens loads with those sites. They sometimes list 2.0L as 2.1 or 1.9.

Ah ha!
Just done a history check on the one on dd as it looked the part. The check described it as a 1.8 150 BHP T. 1.8l diesel engine with a yes to an engine number change.
Ad said it recently had a tb change.....

Thought you would have started parking in that magic ally people talk about where it is free

I don't know exactly where it is, I don't drive in enough to bother.

I've yet to hear of this magic alley? I may scope it out, although my windows might "magically" disappear if it's where i think it is

It sounds fairly dodgy tbh. People sometimes get blocked in because other people park them in! It so free though so you will save €6 every day

Plenty of apartment blocks around Dublin 8 with owners renting out their underground parking space. I pay €50 a month for a parking space in a gated underground car park 2 minutes from St Patricks Cathedral.

I've looked into that, so i might do it in the new year, given the place is near like

Dead handy for when you have an impromptu night out or for weekend/christmas shopping in the city to.

Aye that would be very handy alright, Sure I'll look on rent.ie and see I had considered it at the start of college but there was nowhere near bolton street going the nearest was somewheree in drumcondra, well the nearest i could afford
