    Ad says warranty too for what it's worth.

    That's a shocking and from a dealer. Pic 5 sold it to me though.

    Photo 5 looks like the visitor's area at Mountjoy. Used all 15 photos from donedeal and not one of the car's interior.

    Think you are being a tad harsh, fair enough he should have interior pics, but showing that he has at least tried to follow covid guidelines might give people some peace of mind, probably the type of people who will be interested in this car.

    What are the covid guidelines on taking photos?

    Socially distance them, lock 3 of them for no reason and mask as much as possible of the photo so no one can see 3/4's of it.

    I think this excerpt from the ad covers the Covid precautions bit.

    "With Covid-19 We are Taking Great Care to Protect Ourselves and Indeed You Our Customers, All Cars Are Being Sanitized Prior to Test Driving and again Before Delivery. We have HSE Standard Signage, Perspex Screen Protection and Hand Sanitizer in our Offices for Your Safety and Protection…"


    Also worth noting that anyone interested only needs to txt to get a video of the car.

    "This Four Wheel Drive Sedici is in Really Great Condition…. We can Send you a Walk Around Video of the Car on WhatsApp to Give You a Better Idea of its Overall Condition on request.."


    Whether the car is good value is another question.

    Not much is what it's worth ..
    Caveat emptor with this guy..
    Have recent dealing with them and there isn't much to recommend to be honest .

    The second pic does it for me. The illest sticker, the mudflap falling off and the stanced fuel filler door.

    3 ridiculously quick, easy things to tidy up, not done. POS i'd say. If we aren't doing basic little things like that, it's very unlikely the bonnet was so much as opened. Not that you expect too much from a 2k car but you'd like to believe it's had some basic tlc when paying dealer tax on it.

    I ran one for 6 months a few years ago.

    Won’t let you down but it’s thirsty As you’d expect. Suit someone not doing much mileage on country roads. One of the rear top mounts rusted Out completely in the end. You can pop off the plastic cover in the boot to check for rust around these.

    It’s definitely over priced as pointed out. Start high I suppose if not in a rush.

    https://www.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/honda-civic-1-8-petrol/26228187

    2008 Honda Civic 1.8, 1 owner, 123k miles.

    Northern reg, but has mot till February which I believe can be transferred. I'd imagine it can be taxed on co2.

    Could possibly be got for shy of bangernomics money if the nox calculation is correct.

    Thoughts?

    You would probably buy an Irish reg one for less than what that will cost to buy and vrt here. That car needs to be bought for sub 1k to make it worth your while VRTing it here.

    Post 08 make a bit of a premium over pre. You’d still be saving.
    Not worth the hassle though, especially for an SE model.

    They claim 1 owner from new, so should have been able to transfer to irish reg. If its already primarily in donegal and they didn't do that, there are making the VRT your problem. I wouldn't recommend it.

    92 Galant 1.6 with a heap of alleged recent work done, tested til October (+ extension) and taxed til August, €550

    Same owner since 1999! I am fiercely tempted

    Such a fall from grace. Mitsubishi used be a class above the competition but have fallen so far that I just can't see them ever recovering.

    From what I remember, that was in Tullamore originally and I was going to view it when you put it up, but it sold.

    Looks like somebody is gonna do well out of it alright!

    It was only a matter of time before they pulled the pin on Europe, i'm actually surprised they lasted this long...

    No different than somebody buying a car for a shade over a grand and selling it at twice the price. Not really surprized any more with car sales.
