That's what I saw as well. Couldn't tell if it was my eyes and the silver playing tricks.

That Merc has had a bit of a knock I think.

To me looks as if the right hand side (as you look at it) is raised up slightly higher than the left. You can see how the circle around the headlight looks off.

Could have had 2 new wings fitted - they rust pretty badly. Spring perches too.

But then, its a 16 year old merc with almost a years NCT for under a grand. dont raise your bar too high!!

First impression is the NCT is up. I pass the ones that say "will fly through NCT." I'd want it done.

By comparison this 2004 with 90,000 miles is €1,295 but its NCT is valid till May 2017.

the expected mpg of roughy 20 mpg would make it expensive

It looks to me like there are a few spots of rust on the driver's side front wing. Also that there are loads of marks on both bumpers?

I saw the scrapes on the back bumper alright didn't notice the rust or the front bumper with the way the shadow is in the pic.

Anyone know whether the computer in these lists mileage in miles or km? Add says 170k km but Nct cert seems to say 170k miles...

Duke O Smiley

That car is a UK import so the mileages displayed would be in miles.

Nct say 170k miles. Ad says 170k km. could be a mistake.

Passenger side front door rubber misaligned to rear door.

Drivers door looks like it had a touch uo. Or else its ghe same shadow in 2 pics.

Seller looks like small time trader.

As previous poster said car is ex UK.

Octavis VRS NCT 5/17 (ad says '16 but NCT site confirms '17) and tax 2/17 for €1500. A really nice family car if you don't mind the yellow. I think it looks great

Urban miles with cheap tacky interior and no floor mats.

Some spectacular finds, lads!

'06 9-5 for under a grand! Needs a bit of work, I wonder what?

E60 for under 2 grand, that's the second one in bangernomics and this low miles one looks even better value than the 525i (cloth) posted a few days ago

Asking now just €1,350 :eek:

Looks a bit rough on the inside, but if it really has full history, with a belt done in the last year or two, that is great value for money. If not, work needed starts to add up quickly...

Also no spoiler, so the people owning this car didn't know very much about the Audi TT. Or did and never went over the speed limit

No "recall" spoiler fitted to that one!

Awesome reg too

Duke O Smiley

I'd say its a really early one

When did they get spoilers?

Hal1

I think it was early 2000.

colm_mcm

Yeah, April 2000 in the uk, but Autumn 99 in the US, for cars built up till the end of 99.

unkel

All of them were retrofitted free of charge with the rear spoiler recall. Funny thing is that I'd say at least a third of original Irish cars never got it done. One can only speculate whether it was ignorance (probably) or knowing they would not be needing the help from the spoiler...

colm_mcm

The car was revolutionary looking at the time, the spoiler would have really taken from the looks. We've grown used to them now, but if it were my I wouldn't have bothered.
